Rainscreen Principles and benefits The past The rainscreen principle is not new, nor is the idea of rainscreen applied to wall design. Existing wall For centuries in Norway, drained and back-ventilated claddings were used Any type of legacy load-bearing (or infill) wall that is either under-performing or being physically or aesthetically degraded by weather and time – or a structure suffering from all of these. with both closed and open joints but without any scientific, systematic foundation. Gradually, on buildings with timber claddings, closed joints were adopted, and openings at both the...

Rainwater removal • Insulation of up to 240mm thickness can be accommodated • Cladding prevents penetration of most rainwater using a Marley Eternit framing system • All types of insulation can be used – from rigid PUR to mineral wool • Insulation positioned against substrate maximises heat retention • Natural ventilation – stack effect – evaporates penetrating rain • Residual rainwater drains harmlessly and evacuates at base of system • Pressure equalised system naturally inhibits ingress of driven rain and minimises condensation issues • Externally located insulation maximises internal floor...

The aesthetic, remedial and thermal solution One of the key ways in which rainscreen can benefit existing buildings is through overcladding. • Restoration of existing facade Apartment and office blocks, retail, healthcare and commercial • Extending the life of the building establishments may well require both remedial and aesthetic work to • Improving appearance and image make them suitable for today's environment. • Provide thermal insulation and weather-tightness On top of this, the thermal inefficiencies inherent in this legacy building stock will almost certainly need radically upgrading...
