Controlling Moisture and Reducing Energy Consumption.

Rainscreens provide limitless design options for building façades while controlling moisture and reducing energy consumption.

Energy Efficiency

Architects and designers seeking better moisture management and energy efficiency from the exteriors of their projects are turning to rainscreens as a solution for both. A rainscreen is an exterior cladding infrastructure that sits away from a building’s exterior wall’s water-resistant barrier, creating an air cavity directly behind the cladding which is vented at both the top and bottom of the wall so it may help to protect the buildings important envelope. This allows any moisture that may pass by the cladding to easily drain away from the building, and the air that moves between the cladding and the wall accelerates evaporation of any residual moisture due to passive ventilation. Rainscreens also provide a solution for improving buildings energy efficiency by facilitating the use, and space for, exterior insulation.

Reduced Thermal Bridging

Our expertise is focused on the means and methods of attaching and supporting rainscreen façade panels to the building while reducing the impact on the insulation.
