Thermal Performance
As part of Building Regulations (Part L) there are standard requirements that must be met when considering the thermal performance of a building. For non-dwelling constructions the minimum thermal performance for a wall, designated as a U-value, is 0.35W/m2K.
A Rainscreen system does not
necessarily dictate the thermal performance of a wall,
especially if it is used as a purely visual façade.
However, where thermal performance is required
Euroclad’s LINEAR systems can deliver the
performance specified.

The examples demonstrate typical thru-wall
constructions inclusive of our LINEAR façade
systems to chieve specific U-values.
