Application

A cladding system for building envelopes. Suitable for new-build and refurbishment projects where a streamlined, secret-fix rainscreen is required. Ideal for facades demanding a contemporary appearance with durability, low maintenance, and simple installation. The system’s removable plank design allows straightforward access where required.

Description

The Imbris Pressed Plank is a secret-fix aluminium rainscreen cladding system, precision-manufactured in-house by Kencar. The planks feature interlocking male/female joints that create a continuous facade with no visible fixings. Ventilation is provided at the top and bottom of the elevation, as the longitudinal joints are fully closed.

The system is installed on NVELOPE NV1 carrier rails and brackets, providing a robust and proven subframe solution. Panels are available in 2 mm or 3 mm aluminium, with modular sizes to suit project requirements. A full range of finishes is available, including polyester powder coating and anodising. Prefabricated corners, column casings, and abutments can be supplied along with ancillary components such as window pods, door framing, and flashings.
