The term “ventilated wall” refers to an opaque wall with an outer coating composed of discontinuous elements made of KERLITE laminated slabs of large size and reduced thickness.
These elements are installed “dry” with a mechanical or chemical-mechanical bond. Between these slabs and the wall behind, a space is created that allows air circulation.
Their technical characteristics, combined with their unique beauty, make KERLITE slabs ideal for ventilated wall systems.
The strengths of KERLITE ventilated walls
- Superior mechanical strength
- Resistant to thermal shock
- Minimum water absorption
- High frost resistance
- Fireproof
- Resistance of colours to sunlight and to ageing
- Resistant to stains and smog
- Resistant to atmospheric agents
- Light and easy to install
- Easy to restore original appearance in case of vandalism or graffiti
