Products and systems vary from location to location due to local building regulations and standards. We strongly advise you to make contact, your local expert will be happy to consult you on standards and approval.
System advantages
- for the design of custom, shiny surfaces made of glass mosaic
- benefits in terms of building physics thanks to rear ventilation of the facade (humidity, sound and thermal protection)
- curved shapes possible
- great freedom of design due to combinations of colours and formats with no limitation to the light reflectance value
- unevenness can be levelled by means of an adjustable sub-construction
- lowest thermal bridging coefficient due to bespoke sub-construction made from a combination of stainless steel and aluminium
- passivhaus-certified sub-construction possible that is free from thermal bridges
- highly weather-resistant
- very high crack resistance
- high reliability due to system solution with matched components
Properties
Thermal protection
- mineral wool faced with nonwoven
- thick insulant layer possible
- system implementation also possible without insulation
Reaction to fire
- class B1 in accordance with DIN 4102-1, limited combustibility
- in a defined system build-up, class A2-s1, d0 in accordance with EN 13501-1 when using the StoVentec Carrier Board A or in accordance with national standards when using the StoVentec Carrier Board
- fire barriers may be required in accordance with national specifications
Impact resistance
- shock-proof and impact-resistant
- highly resistant to mechanical stress
Wind load
- can be applied to all wind load areas by adapting the sub-construction spacings without visible impact
Sound insulation
- improvement of up to 12 dB (A) in the sound reduction index
- derived from tested system buildup of StoVentec R
Use
Area of application
- new and existing buildings, installation limits in accordance with national building regulations
- sub-construction consisting of a wall bracket and carrier profile (StoVentro Y): large system build-ups are possible, e.g. > 60 cm, suitable for the passivhaus standard with a certified sub-construction
Substrate
- masonry, e.g. brick, calcium silicate masonry units, cellular concrete, fair-faced masonry and masonry veneer
- concrete, concrete slab construction
- timber frame construction
Fixing
- sub-construction consisting of a wall bracket and carrier profile (StoVentro Y): easily adjustable sub-construction made of a stainless steel and aluminium combination with the lowest thermal bridging coefficients
- in timber frame construction with timber supporting battens
Application
- complete selection of detail solutions
- fast installation
- curves can be implemented
Creative possibilities
Design options
