Application

Suitable for data centre facades where architectural screening, durability and performance are required. Actua® Panels are fixed to composite panels or gantry steelwork and can be used to create feature facades while maintaining weather resistance and compliance.

Description

Actua® Panels are purpose-designed facade panels for data centre buildings, providing a robust, weatherproof and visually distinctive external envelope.

The hook-on system allows solid, perforated and laser-cut panels to be configured in a wide range of sizes and shapes. Panels are fixed to composite panels or steelwork using a simplified substructure that minimises fixings, reduces material use and mitigates the risk of water penetration.

The system has been CWCT tested in partnership with Euroclad Rainspan® composite panels.

Features and benefits:

CWCT tested for air permeability, watertightness, wind and impact resistance.
Range of solid, perforated, laser-cut and shaped panels.
Hook-on aluminium facade panel system.
Powder-coated or anodised in a wide range of RAL colours and finishes.
Designed to mitigate water penetration.
Minimal fixings to reduce material use.
