Fassa
Bortolo, one of the leading Italian manufacturers of renders and integrated
building systems has brought its Fassarend timber frame system to the UK
market, adding a versatile new solution to its expanding portfolio.
With a
four-stage installation process, the timber frame system can be used across a
range of residential and commercial projects and has the added benefit of on or
off site construction.
Using
light-weight carrier boards, mechanically fixed onto wooden battens and
finished with a thin coat render; this new system delivers a range of stand out
features.
A
drained cavity behind the render carrier board allows the components to breath
from behind and drain any moisture caused by condensation. The system can be
easily due to its lightness and versatility of use. It can be part applied to a
timber frame structure off site for accuracy and tolerance, with Fassa’s high
quality render applied to the facade on site, either by hand or by machine once
the project reaches the final stages.
Offering
good insulation properties, there is an extra option to incorporate a
mechanical EWI rail system should the project require extra insulation, in the
form of mineral wool or Expanded Polystyrene (EPS).
