Why Choose Genius Facades The Genius Facades cladding systems have evolved following years of research
and development by industry specialists within the facades marketplace
producing a fire safe, fire rated, contemporary facade that can be designed and
incorporated into new builds or seamlessly retro fitted to enhance
refurbishments of existing buildings. The common misconception is that
innovative and stylish metal facade systems are expensive and perceived to be
complicated to install and detail. At Genius Facades, we are able to achieve a
stunning metal facade at a very competitive cost utilising our in house
programming and technical design departments.
What Genius Facades can do for you Genius Facades not only supply nationwide to our recommended cladding

within programme, Genius Facades still maintain the safety specification of
the building envelope to ensure all building regulations are met. At Genius
Facades, via our robust design and technical department we offer project
specific details to assist architects and main contractors to eliminate any
technical issues that may arrise prior to full project design. Market leaders

Design and Installation
2
The genius systems have a rapid turn around from design to installation. The panels are designed and manufactured in house with our dedicated teams catering to the clients needs.
Our design teams work on state of the art systems to efficiently produce results with precision and accuracy while always following the clients specification and provide technical suggestions on improvements where possible.
Our systems have a unique installation method to minimise the time it takes to install the panels which boasts a 25% improvement of installation time compared to other traditional methods.
This in turn provides our client the edge over competitors, as the project will adhere to shorter programmes and reduced labour
costs. Overall the facade will be completed in a shorter time frame and reduce any disturbances to surrounding areas.
Maintenance
The genius systems have been formulated to provide a low maintenance design which reduces long term maintenance costs to a minimum.
To ensure that the maximum lifespan is achieved, we would advise an annual* maintenance checkup to ensure there are no damaged panels and that seals, fixings and flashings are still in place securely.
In the event that there are damaged panels, our team are able to make replacements without affecting the structural integrity of the project.
Project specific O&M manual must be adhered to.
* In areas where there are higher pollution levels or coastal areas, we recommend additional maintenance checks to be carried out.

possible. We are constantly developing by sourcing new material suppliers,
