Ingenious, attractive,
innovative and
economical
Kalzip FC rainscreen is a non-penetrative faade system that
incorporates a fast-to-install lightweight flat rainscreen panel,
suitable for both new build and retrofit projects.
The main feature of the system is its flexibility which allows the
installation of the profiles to be carried out in two directions,
either from the top down or from the bottom up.
This choice of panel mounting direction is a unique benefitwhich enables not only easier and faster installation compared
to conventional panel systems but also allows scaffolding
or subsequent construction work to be coordinated
independently from the installation process.
The system's innovative design and technical capabilities also
allow individual sheets to be removed and installed without
compromising the adjoining panels or the overall integrity of
the faade system.

Technical informationInstallation
The Kalzip FC rainscreen system has been designed for horizontal installation and for use with all common substructures.
The panels are fixed into either proprietary individual clips or continuous modular rails which feature integrated plastic inlays that lock the
panels securely into place. The individual mono-click brackets can also be used for creating special details.
The modular click rail is typically supplied in three to four metre lengths. This is not only for practical handling reasons but also where abreak in the faade sub-construction is required to allow expansion between floors. A specially designed setting out tool is available to
ensure the correct spacing and alignment between adjacent rails. The same tool can be adjusted to accommodate all standard profile cover
widths. The system components have been optimised to enable the system to be adjusted and aligned solely via the substructure. Fully
integrated corner panels add a subtle yet harmonious detail to the building geometry and enhance the overall aesthetics of the faade.
Installation from the bottom upwards Installation from the top downwards
Profile options and dimensions (units in mm) Materials and finishes:
FC rainscreen panels are available in stucco embossed aluminum
EN AW 6025 (AIMg2.5SiMnCu) and painted aluminum EN AW 3004

1. Structurally effective modular click rail
SEL-40 on L-section (figure 1)
The advantage of these sub-constructions
are that they require very few components.
Quick and economical installation is there-
fore possible. Installation experience is an
essential requirement here as the
components need to be aligned in several
directions at the same time.
2. Adjustable aluminum
sub-construction pre-punched
mono-click brackets (figure 2)
The advantage of this sub-construction is
that it uses conventional systems, onto
which mono-click brackets can be fixed in
modular positions. This sub-construction
is recommended e.g. when there is a
change in panel cover width within the
faade.
Adjustable aluminum sub-construction
with modular click rail (figure 3)
This option uses commercially available
systems without additional modifications.
The advantage is economical and simple
installation (alignment takes place in two
steps) The structurally non-effective modular
click rail must be fixed to the vertical
L-section and at every panel support.
The Kalzip FC rainscreen system is suitable for all common sub-constructions. Adjustmentof the panels takes place solely via the sub-construction. The Kalzip FC rainscreen panelscan therefore be installed quickly and easily without the need for additional alignment.
The following systems are recommended:

figure 1
figure 5
figure 7
figure 2 figure 3
3. Adjustable aluminum sub-construction installed
horizontally with structurally effective modular click
rail (figures 4 and 5)
In this case, there is a standard sub-construction (figure 4)
which is installed horizontally. The wall brackets may require
additional reinforcement (figure 5).
This sub-construction can be used in projects where
horizontal members are more economical for structural
reasons, e.g. in the case of ribbon windows. The
structurally effective modular click rail enables the
arrangement of the sub-construction to take place
independently from panel alignment and is therefore
the simplest installation solution.
4. Structurally effective modular click rail on steel cassettes
(figures 6 and 7)
This design is often used in industrial buildings. The structurally
effective modular click rail should be used
to accommodate different cover widths of the panels
and cassettes (figure 6).
Alternatively for higher thermal performance requirements
a continuously insulated steel cassette system can be used
as the backing wall (figure 7). When installing the modular click rail
on this system, please observe the steel cassette manufacturers
installation recommendations to achieve a thermal break.

Corner panels
Both internal and external corner panels are produced in the factory to suit project
requirements. This gives maximum flexibility when detailing and fixing panels.
Corner panels with angles other than 90 can also be produced. For wind loading and
stability reasons, panels fitted in corners require additional supports. Please contact our
Technical Services Department for further information.

Project case studiesLouisiana Superdome,
New Orleans, USA
Architect: Trahan Architects
Faade area: 34,000 square metres
Profile: Kalzip FC rainscreen 30/305R
Surface finish: Anodized aluminum
Over 365,000 square feet of Kalzip FC rainscreen system have been
used to re-clad the exterior of the Louisiana Superdome after it was
severely damaged by Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
The state of Louisiana, which owns the facility, wanted a system
that would allow for the repair of individual panels without having to
dismantle the entire system. The specification also required rigorous
testing of the system in mock up form as the entire wall system,
not just the panels, had to meet stringent requirements for wind
resistance and other severe weather conditions.
Completed in 2010 the Kalzip FC rainscreen system not only fulfilled
but also, in many instances, exceeded all technical and performance
expectations. Aesthetically stunning the new anodized aluminum
panels are the same color as the original faade maintaining the
original appearance of this highly distinctive structure.
Spirit of Spice Warehouse, Willich, Germany
Architect: Dewey + Blohm-Schroder Achitekten
Faade area: 330 square metres
Profile: Kalzip FC rainscreen 30/300
Surface finish: polyester coated
The owners of the spice factory in Willich, Germany turned their
hobby into an occupation and established a company for the
manufacture and sales of spices in 2005. By 2010 its huge success
had made it necessary for them to construct a new building, which
houses rooms for production, administration and also an apartment.
The open side of the elongated structure (in a recumbent U- shape)
faces to the north and west overlooking a nature conservation area
whilst the south side, which is clad with Kalzip profiles, backs onto a
'mixed use' industrial estate.
The roof and wall surfaces merge into one another through
the building's shape and design. The standing seams and the
AluPlusPatina finish give the building a characteristic surface that
conveys quality and durability. The building, which was conceived
as a 'passive' house, is equipped with a geothermal system, solar
hot water production, controlled forced ventilation and a 600 square
metre photovoltaic plant making it as independent of external energy
supplies as possible. The Kalzip profiled sheets enable the non-
penetrative installation of the solar modules. For the external faade,
the architects chose the Kalzip FC rainscreen system. Characteristic
of this system are the large panels, which provide the faade with a
calm and highly aesthetic surface.
