VENTILATED CERAMIC TILE CLADDING

Ventilated façades enhance a building’s energy efficiency, indoor environmental quality and sustainability. Because the air chamber behind the façade creates thermal insulation, ventilated facades help prevent fluctuations in temperature that normally occur during the change of seasons, thus decreasing its heat load. The air chamber also creates a “chimney” effect that provides natural ventilation to help eliminate condensation. Since ventilated facades are relatively easy to install over an original facade, they offer an ideal solution for existing building renovations, and create a technical space for installations and piping.
