Large size façade panels SWISSPEAL

for applications with the highest standards regarding sophisticated presentation. The façade system SIGMA 8 offers a wide scope for individual expression.

Panels are supplied ex factory accurately and cleanly cut to size, with predrilled backside holes, all executed under strict quality control. The system includes the special anchors and three ingeniously designed hanging elements to be installed on the job site. This clever and rational system can be used with any standard vertical supporting metal or wooden sub-frame (carried out by others).

Limitations in design possibilities for 3-D orna-ments! Required thickness depends on static, number, size and repartition of the ornaments. ! Static / feasibility of each intended pattern have to be checked. As guidelines: Depth of ornaments • maximum 1.5 mm if thickness 8 mm • maximum 4 mm if thickness 12 mm Surface of ornaments • maximum 18% if thickness 8 mm • maximum 20% if thickness 12 mm! Minimum width of grooved lines, whatever shape and position: 3 mm! No sharp angles, minimum radius 4 mm! Space between 2 elements of the pattern should corres- pond to at least 100 mm ! Approximately 90 mm border without ornaments

! Spacing of fastening points may have to be adjusted depending on pattern/statics.

Large size façade panels SWISSPEAL

for applications with the highest standards regarding sophisticated presentation. The façade system SIGMA 8 offers a wide scope for individual expression.

Panels are supplied ex factory accurately and cleanly cut to size, with predrilled backside holes, all executed under strict quality control. The system includes the special anchors and three ingeniously designed hanging elements to be installed on the job site. This clever and rational system can be used with any standard vertical supporting metal or wooden sub-frame (carried out by others).

SWISSPEARL façade system SIGMA 8

Limitations in design possibilities for 3-D orna-ments! Required thickness depends on static, number, size and repartition of the ornaments. ! Static / feasibility of each intended pattern have to be checked. As guidelines: Depth of ornaments • maximum 1.5 mm if thickness 8 mm • maximum 4 mm if thickness 12 mm Surface of ornaments • maximum 18% if thickness 8 mm • maximum 20% if thickness 12 mm! Minimum width of grooved lines, whatever shape and position: 3 mm! No sharp angles, minimum radius 4 mm! Space between 2 elements of the pattern should corres- pond to at least 100 mm ! Approximately 90 mm border without ornaments

! Spacing of fastening points may have to be adjusted depending on pattern/statics.

Limitations in design possibilities for embossed surfaces! Useable panel sizes 1220"2500 mm 1220"3040 mm! Panels are directional! Colour: Natural Grey! Max. distance between fasteners is reduced. Please contact Technical Advisor.

Limitations in design possibilities for sandblasted surfaces! Useable panel sizes 1100"2400 mm 1100"2900 mm (already trimmed)! Panels are directional; aspect may vary from panel to panel ! Available colours 8790 White, 8760 Light Grey, 8720 Dark Grey, 8730 Red, 8740 Blue, 8750 Green, 8770 Brown, 8780 Yellow. ! Max. distance between fasteners is reduced.

Sandblasted surfacesThanks to this enhancing process, panels get a unique, slightly rough surface.
