Types, Benefits, and Uses

Ventilated Façades

Ventilated façade systems with sintered stone require precise technical solutions to ensure proper installation and durability. Proper cutting and handling of materials is essential, as incorrect handling may affect the structural integrity and thermal performance of the system.

Design and execution must consider the correct fixing of panels and the necessary ventilation to prevent condensation issues and improve insulation.
Material selection should be based on technical criteria that ensure resistance, stability, and compatibility with the installation environment.

Additionally, technical planning should include details on joints, anchors, and support systems to ensure that the ventilated façade meets the safety and efficiency standards required for each project.

HOW TO CLEAN SINTERED STONE

Cleaning and Maintenance

Ventilated façades require precise technical solutions to ensure proper installation and durability. Correct cutting and handling are critical, as mishandling can affect structural integrity and thermal performance.

Design and execution must account for correct panel fixing and adequate ventilation to prevent condensation and improve insulation.
Material selection should follow technical criteria to ensure resistance, stability, and compatibility with the environment.

Technical planning should include details about joints, anchors, and support systems to guarantee that the ventilated façade meets required safety and efficiency standards.

Recommendations for Safe Handling

Handling and Storage of Sintered Stone

Handling and storage of stone are essential aspects of any project, as they ensure both workplace safety and preservation of material quality.

For handling, suction systems are used, and it is recommended to wear cut-resistant gloves, safety shoes, and protective goggles.

Regarding storage, it is best to keep the pieces protected from impacts and maintain them in their original packaging until ready for use.

This ensures that each piece retains its integrity and is ready to be worked on under optimal conditions.

Technical Documentation

The quality of a project does not depend solely on the material but also on how it is handled at each stage. Therefore, we provide a comprehensive set of tools with guidelines on cutting, handling, installation, and construction systems such as ventilated façades.

Additionally, downloadable guides are available to support every phase of the process, ensuring optimal and long-lasting results.
