It’s no surprise architects chose Swisspearl® high density fibre cement external cladding for this recently completed, multi-residential complex. Non-combustible, impact resistant and available in a huge range of colours and textures, Swisspearl provided all the durability and design flexibility the design team was looking for.
Located right next door to Bondi’s Westfield shopping centre, a façade in this busy, beachside location had to be highly durable and low-maintenance. Swisspearl fire-resistant cladding was the ideal choice. What’s more, the finishes chosen – Swisspearl’s Carat Crystal 7010 and Zenor Charcoal – create an eye-catching result against Sydney’s beautiful blue skies.
Swisspearl high-density fibre cement panels are installed using a natural and energy efficient rear-ventilated system. It’s a method that provides considerable energy savings, long after installation is complete, as well as contributing to the maximum longevity of the building’s exterior.
A multi-layer construction, the rear-ventilated system consists of a rainscreen on the outer layer in conjunction with a frame, weather resistant membrane, insulation, sub-frame and ventilated cavity underneath. This means Swisspearl cladding panels are designed to last – rain, hail or shine.
Rear-ventilated facades offer numerous distinct advantages over other facade systems including:
- thermal efficiency
- acoustic insulation
- environmental protection
- energy savings.
On top of all that, Swisspearl high-density fibre cement panels contribute to climate protection, as well as offer a great opportunity to enhance the appearance and value of a building.
So, when you’re specifying commercial cladding for your next project, look for Swisspearl ventilated façade technology and systems. Enjoy European design for the Australian landscape.
