COVERLAM
COVERLAM is the result of years of research and development. Thanks to the introduction of lamination pressing technology, it is now possible to produce a 120x360cm porcelain tile which may be as thin as 3.5mm.

VENTILATED FACADES
A ventilated facade is a construction method whereby a physical separation is created between the outside of the façade and the interior wall of the building. This separation creates an open cavity allowing the exchange of the air contained between the wall and the outer cladding.

VENTILATED FACADE DOUBLE-BRICK FACADE HEAT FLOW
BENEFITS
Internal heat flow: Laying insulation on the exterior part of the wall and the floor structure prevents thermal bridges across the entire façade. Heat loss towards the outside in winter is blocked, as is the heat coming from the outside in summer, resulting in energy savings of between 15% and 35%, both in terms of heating and air conditioning.
External heat flow: In addition, laying insulation on the exterior part of the wall and the floor structure provides the building with greater thermal mass.
THERMAL
GRESPANIATECHNICALSOLUTIONS
10% to 20% reduction in noise from the exterior penetrating the building’s interior.
Allows for an endless combination of colours, textures, sizes and fitting.
Elimination of condensation on the interior side of the wall: This is the result of fitting the insulation on the exterior side of the wall. The temperature difference between air in the cavity and exterior air, in conjunction with the gaps between the tiles, leads to the creation of an airflow known as the “chimney-stack effect” which eliminates humidity in wet conditions and prevents condensation on the outside of the insulation should such conditions exist.
Weatherproofing: Cladding with ceramic tiles provides high resistance to ultraviolet radiation, rain and extreme temperatures.
lncreased durability: Avoids expansion and contraction in the structural support, eliminating the appearance of cracks and fractures.
Mínimum maintenance: Only in the case of breakages.
Easy to clean: Cleaning a tile-clad facade is quick and easy as it is a wallcovering of tiles.
The H&CTILES treatment ensures that the facade can self-clean.
Plumb alignment: lt is not necessary to plumb the exterior wall as plumbing of the facade cladding is obtained through the anchorage devices.
Easy to replace: Anchorage design enables fast replacement of the tiles in both exposed and hidden systems.
Facade refurbishing: The ventilated facade system is a fast, simple method of refurbishment, offering the opportunity to improve the building’s thermal characteristics by fitting insulation on the outer face of the existing facade.
