Rainscreen Cladding StoVentec Glass is a ventilated rainscreen cladding system consisting of a glass faced composite panel, thermal insulation and sub-construction. Tempered safety glass is adhered to a carrier board to produce an inseparable composite panel, which protects the stainless steel, aluminium sub-construction from rain. A circulating air layer is formed between the hung panel and the mineral wool insulation, mounted directly onto the substrate. Insulation on the outside of the construction keeps the wall warm and reduces the risk of condensation and minimises temperature...

StoVentec Glass screen printed and used in the interior of a building guarantees a continuous material flow from exterior to interior The StoVentec Glass system comprises bespoke panels, manufactured individually, offering a wide range of shapes and an even more impressive range of colours. Part of our manufacturing process includes the fusing of colours on to the back of the glass, before the toughening process. The colour melts into the glass providing permanent coloured glass panels that will not wear, scratch, fade or incur water damage. Sto can also match to almost any colour. Screen...

Shapes follow inspiration Glass is not only a remarkable material in terms of appearance, but also due to its design flexibility. Panels can be supplied in square, rectangular, trapezium and parallelogram shapes, and glass panels can be cut to incorporate lighting or control panels. Multiple glass panels can also be bonded to the same backing board to create stripes or patterns. The non-visible sub-construction results in an open-jointed grid, with no visible frames, rails or fixings.

Beautiful shell, strong core Sto’s innovative sub-construction: Material combination of stainless steel and aluminium - complete solution from one supplier The StoVentec ventilated rainscreen cladding system utilises both aluminium and stainless steel for the sub-construction. This provides a strong and durable system, which is also light-weight and comparatively inexpensive, but ultimately fulfills the thermal performance required. The sub-construction is also adjustable for levelling uneven substrates. Stainless steel brackets do not require thermal breaks to avoid cold bridges and less...

Glass sets a precedent StoVentec Glass is the only UK glass rainscreen system with a BBA certificate for all standard applications. This includes assessment of wind loads, how the system performs under intense heat, safety and durability. Rigorous testing under extreme conditions has proved that StoVentec Glass meets NHBC standards and Building Regulations - including fire spread - and has a minimum certified expected life of 30 years. The toughened glass panels Sto manufactures will not fail as a result of thermal stress due to solar radiation. In the event a panel is broken from physical...

Sustainability is the best policy Sustainability and energy efficiency are as much a part of futureoriented planning as a solid architectural concept. Sto’s Building with Conscience mission influences the materials we use to help us gain BREEAM credits. Glass façades are extremely hard-wearing and weather-resistant. The carrier boards for the panels are manufactured using expanded glass granulate, an environmentally friendly material that is produced from 96% recycled glass.
