EXTRUDED ALUMINIUM PANELS EXTRUDED ARCHITECTURE The extrusion manufacturing process is recognized to be the best way to achieve high precision aluminium Promoclad® has chosen this technology to produce XPAN Extruded Aluminium Panels for rainscreen cladding With a variety of standard profiles, XPAN Extruded Aluminium Panels was born with the intent to be the first extruded aluminium rainscreen system having the possibility of combining many different shapes on the same elevation, this to give more chances to architects and designers instead of the usual flat or corrugated wall. Now with XPAN...

FIXING METHOD XPAN unique fixing method, was designed to be easy, intuitive and fast. Today many installation companies and contractors exhalt XPAN system for this reason. It works exactly as expected. What makes XPAN system so smart, is the use of an extruded aluminium fixing Clip which holds the panels against the substructure. The Clip element, which has been extensively tested and certified to prove its structural resistance, is fixed to the subframe by means of stainless steel The Clip has a small lip on the back which is inserted into the receiving groove at the top of the panel. The...

XPAN ADVANTAGES What makes XPAN really unique is that it represents the first extruded cladding system made of 300mm. module size extruded profiles. We have chosen the 300mm. in order to have less panels There are many other advantages that make of XPAN the best solution available, such as: ■ Reduced quantity of subframe ■ Reduced erection time ■ Fast and easy fixing method ■ Panels are ready to be installed ■ Small quantities can be supplied in different colors and finishes ■ Endless combination possibilities ■ Bespoke profiles can be designed Large module size Rainscreen principles...

XPAN is made of aluminium, and this would be enough to say that it is enviromentally friendly, as aluminium can be 100% In addition to this great advantage, XPAN is manufactured in a plant which adopts over 40% of recycled aluminium to make the extrusion billets used to produce XPAN. We must also mention the fact that the use of Polyester Powder Coating process for painting XPAN panels contain no VOC's (Volatile Organic Compounds) and are totally metal, lead, chromate and solvent free. VOC-free powder coating does not generate hazardous waste as the powder is not mixed with solvents or...

XPAN standard range consists of several profiles available in different shapes and dimensions. Many others will be added to increase even further design possibilities. XPAN profile range is divided in: • Panels • Louver blades for ventilation/sunscreens XLINE - Flat surface profile XAIR - Louver blade XRAIL - Flat profile with horizontal grooves XSHADE - Louver blade XWAVE - Sinusoidal profile XPAN Baguette System XWING - Concave/convex profile

With its flat, smooth surface XLINE represents probably the most desired profile where a straight linear aspect is required without, for this reason, renouncing its beauty. XLINE is also used in combination with the other XPAN profiles in order to emphasize their geometrical aspect. ■ Alloy/Temper: EN-AW BOBO/TB ■ General tolerances according to UNI EN 12020-2

The XRAIL profile, is a flat extruded aluminium panel marked in its length with five horizontal grooves. These grooves are giving the profile a special texture and, in addition, they have the function to receive XPAN Baguette profiles. ■ Alloy/Temper: EN-AW BOBO/TB ■ General tolerances according to UNI EN 755-9

XWAVE profile gives interesting shadow effects to the design of the wall cladding. XWAVE has an incredible visual impact when used in combination with the other XPAN profiles, especially XLINE. ■ Alloy/Temper: EN-AW BOBO/TB ■ General tolerances according to UNI EN 755-

The XWING profile is probably the most innovative of the whole range. Its concave shape in the middle and convex at the top and bottom, produces a wave of 300mm., which can be repeated if used by itself, or gives a particular singular appearance to the wall cladding if used in combination with the other XPAN profiles. ■ Alloy/Temper: EN-AW BOBO/TB ■ General tolerances according to UNI EN 755-9

XAIR is an extruded aluminium louver blade for the ventilation of the facade. XAIR allows an air flow of approximately 34% of the clad surface. Its use can vary depending on the requirements: for aesthetical purposes, or to clad technical service areas or where a visual screen is required. ■ Blade pitch: 60mm. (n.5 blades reach 300mm.) ■ Alloy/Temper: EN-AW BOBO/TB ■ General tolerances according to UNI EN 755-9

If you need a louver blade system with good sun protection and a good air flow capacity, XSHADE is the product for you. Its particular dimension and shape makes it perfect to be used wherever a protection from direct sun light is required. The extruded blades have a safe mechanical fixing method which prevents them popping out of their position when under wind loads. This profile allows an air flow of approximately 50% of the clad surface. ■ General tolerances according to UNI EN 755-9 ■ Certified fixing Clip

BAGUETTE SYSTEM XPAN BAGUETTE SYSTEM is an innovative and patented solar shading This system has been designed to make installation easy, fast, with consequent economical benefits. Extruded aluminium baguette profiles are fixed to a support rail shaped in such a way to help installers to align baguettes with great precision. Baguette profiles can be positioned at various distances which are pre- determined by the support rail. Once baguette profiles are fixed to the support rails on the ground (by means of stainless steel fasteners or rivets), the assembled module can be installed to the...
