QuadroClad:registered: Honeycomb - Open-jointed Cladding System

QuadroClad®️ Honeycomb - Open-jointed Cladding System
29 Oct 2021
The QuadroClad® façade system is a one-of-a-kind, open-jointed cladding system based on the rain-screen façade principles. The skins are welded to a honeycomb aluminium core, which gives the panels extraordinary strength and flatness. QuadroClad® panels and components have been independently evaluated for corrosion resistance, fire resistance, and wind-load performance and have been intended to perform in even the most difficult conditions.



Different Kinds of QuadroClad Honeycomb

QC300

The QuadroClad® QC300 is a complete system, and it is, as the name implies, the most comprehensive façade solution. It's an excellent choice for higher elevated structures like high-rise residential complexes and skyscrapers that are subjected to harsh weather. The QC300 is made up of free-hanging panels with a ventilated interior and open joints to lessen surface wind loads. Tall structures demand a particular level of technical specification by their very nature. Hunter Douglas has created a patented system of installation (including wall brackets, support rails, and attaching plates) to suit these requirements.

Characteristics of QC300
 
  • Unitized panels for high-rise buildings
  • Complete package that saves time in the construction process.
  • Because of the unique substructure, installation is simple.
  • Designed to meet the most stringent technical criteria (wind load)
  • Can be removed individually

Sustainability of QuadroClad Honeycomb - Open-jointed Cladding System

Occupants' Well-being and Comfort

Hunter Douglas adds to the sustainability of buildings by providing aesthetically pleasing solutions that improve comfort while conserving energy. Buildings are meant to promote the health and well-being of their occupants. Structures are not created only for the purpose of being energy efficient. Our shading solutions encourage the utilisation of healthy daylight without the glare or discomfort that comes with it. Our acoustic ceilings are a critical component for providing acoustic comfort.

Materials of High Quality

Sustainable constructions require environment-friendly materials. To begin, Hunter Douglas aims to select materials that have good environmental attributes. Many of our goods are created from aluminium that we smelt ourselves. To make the optimum alloy for our products, we've improved our procedures to utilise up to 99 per cent recycled content. Our wood is FSC certified, and our product development follows the Cradle to Cradle philosophy.

Savings on Energy

The usage of energy in the whole building must be reduced if global warming is to be avoided. In most modern office buildings, cooling consumes more energy than heating. In both old and new structures, effectively regulating the solar radiation that passes through the transparent area of the façade is a fundamental approach for preventing overheating. Our high-performance shading solutions help you save money on energy while also improving your health and well-being.

Corporate Social Responsibility

Keen on Green is a major company-wide programme aimed at lowering energy consumption, water consumption, and our overall carbon footprint. Hunter Douglas and its employees are committed to giving back to the communities in which we live and work, as well as those around the world. People are at the heart of our business. We are proud of our network around the globe of experienced, knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and creative people who have made Hunter Douglas their employer of choice.

The QuadroClad Honeycomb Open-jointed cladding system is the ideal choice for renovations or new construction. These are double-edged swords as you can choose from a wide range of colours and materials to get the style you want while also saving energy.
