I
ntroducing the CMS40 Facade System by FabSpeed, a Michelmersh Group brand, in collaboration with fellow industry leaders, Cladmate Facade Systems. The CMS40 is a lightweight, easy-to-
install, cost-effective system that integrates mechanically fixed, non-combustible brick slips to offer the beautiful clay aesthetic that we all know and love. It is suitable for multiple construction projects, ranging from volume high or low-rise projects to new builds or retrofit applications and can be applied to both indoor and outdoor facades. By seamlessly blending traditional brickwork aesthetics with advanced rain screen cladding solutions, CMS40 sets a new standard in architectural versatility and performance. CMS40 offers numerous benefits, including
reduced on-site labour meaning shorter project durations, installation cost savings, improved production safety and quality procedures, enhanced precision and environmental advantages through waste reduction, system recyclability and re-use. Pairing the innovative CMS40 system with
the durability and longevity advantages of clay bricks, in an easy-to-install system, reinforces its appeal in the wider construction industry. Renowned for their strength, fire resistance, thermal and acoustic performance and beauty, clay bricks provide enduring quality alongside their famed long-life expectancy. With a variety of colours and textures, clay brick slips offer unparalleled design flexibility and adaptability which can evolve over generations whilst also complementing change in architectural vision. With confidence in CMS40’s versatility, why not choose a less standard brick bond or even projecting brickwork patterns to give your facade more depth? Furthermore, the CMS40 support system
incorporates 70% recycled aluminium as its primary component and as such is fully recyclable, promoting circular principles, similar to its clay brick counterpart. Its dismantlable and reusable nature coupled with clay brick slips, can ensure a full aesthetic revision with only mortar replacement, ensuring it aligns with sustainable building practices and makes it an ideal choice for secondary applications. CMS40 stands ready to be adorned with a wide selection of clay brick slip products from Michelmersh’s core range. Additionally, FabSpeed’s team of skilled craftspeople can customise slips from various manufacturers’ clay products, providing tailored solutions to meet every project’s challenges. Certified for fire safety and environmental
standards, CMS40 has undergone rigorous testing, including BS 8414-2:2020 and CWCT standards, with BBA certification covering both Parex lime-based and Instamac cement-based mortars. This lightweight framework system

components which can be supplied directly from Cladmate to offer an efficient and reliable supply chain.
