Visitors will see from recent high profile projects how sleek and stunning monolithic rainscreen facades have been created across the country using Shackerley's large format ceramic granite slabs.
They will discover how this exceptional material, available in an unrivalled range of styles, colours, finishes and sizes, has proved to be an aesthetically pleasing and commercially attractive, high performance alternative to natural stone and other traditional cladding materials.
They will also discover the specific installation and maintenance benefits of the Sureclad system.
Sureclad rainscreen facade panels do not have to be installed sequentially and are easily removed without disturbing others in the vicinity.
This valuable feature provides straightforward access to services behind the facade and also allows contractors to use a range of access equipment to install the rainscreen if traditional full-scale scaffolding is problematic, for instance where space is restricted.
Shackerley will also promote its in-house prefabrication services.
By having the company's ceramic granite slabs and aluminium carrier systems prefabricated off-site, contractors can fast track rainscreen installations and benefit from preparatory work being carried out in quality controlled factory conditions.
