Products

  • Crown FactoryClad Roll is a flexible, lightweight, non-combustible, resilient glass mineral wool quilt. It is manufactured in long lengths and has an exceptionally high tear strength, making it particularly suitable for use in the walls of profile metal clad buildings.
  • Knauf Breatheline is a breathable membrane with a polypropylene non-woven coating on both sides.

 

Typical Construction

Profiled metal external sheets, rail and bracket spacer system with thermal break, profiled metal liner and Crown FactoryClad insulation positioned between the external metal profiled sheet and the inner liner sheet.

There is no continuous airspace in the construction other than that created by the profile. Installation Following the erection of the building frame and sheeting rails, the internal profiled metal liner is fixed together with the metal spacer system and thermal break. Seals are applied as necessary to minimise air leakage.

Crown FactoryClad insulation is positioned against the liner panels and between the spacers, with all quilt edges tightly butted. With rail and bracket spacer systems, the rail holds the insulation tightly to the internal sheets. Profiled metal external sheets are fixed as soon as possible after the Crown FactoryClad insulation, to avoid exposure to the weather.

There is no continuous airspace in the construction other than that created by the profile. Protect the installation at the end of each work session and during inclement weather.
