FOCUS ON: TECHNICAL PRECISION The ArGeTon® process is internationally acknowledged as the pioneer of dual skinned extruded clay technology for rainscreens.


Our modern production facilities, selected clay resource and quality management systems ensure unequalled tolerances and consistency of product that are a pre-requisite to create precision, low porosity and high impact resistance in the façade. The distinctive and variable joints and tile formats enable designers to create a variety of façade aesthetics ranging from the "brick effect" of the Terzo profile to the simulated plank appearance created with narrow joints.


MASONRY WALLS - NEW AND EXISTING Aluminium substructure with vertical ‘T’ support rails and adjustable brackets


Aluminium brackets are fixed with approved fasteners along the horizontal axis of the support wall, spaced as structurally necessary. In this regard, attention must be paid to the design of fixed and floating points according to BS 8118: Part 1:1991.


Vertical aluminium ‘T’ section support profiles are inserted into the brackets (a special receiver jaw enables exact adjustment). Once the support profile is aligned it is fixed with blind rivets or screws. The best results are achieved if the 'T' sections are pre-punched to the tile grid.


The ArGeTon® tiles are mounted on the substructure free of tension using self-tapping stainless steel


screws or aluminium hollow rivets, and held in place at four points with proprietary clips. Tiling of the façade is undertaken from the bottom of the panel upwards.
