Comar Cladding Interfaces
Cladding the building envelope can provide a striking solution to
a design brief. However installing opening vents into claddings can
create issues with joint integrity. Traditionally, opening vents were
installed with flashings and joint integrity relied on site applied
sealant. The main disadvantage of this is long-term sealant degradation
and lack of weather tightness of the façade.
Longevity of solution are the key words for Comar 5P.i Cladding Interfaces.
The adaptor allows the specifier the design opportunity to incorporate
windows into a façade without the need for additional flashings.
The external frame of the windows incorporates the cladding interface,
which mimics the edge profile of the cladding system. This allows
the window to be installed in exactly the same way as the panels.
Comar 5P.i Cladding Interfaces provide cost effectiveness: site labour
is reduced, due to the seamless integration of the window system into
the cladding.
As the adaptor utilises Comar P.i technology, low U-values and dual
colour options are available. The adaptor fits all window combinations,
so a variety of tilt and turn, horizontal and vertical pivot, top-swing,
casement windows can be specified.
