The Benefits of Rainscreen Panels

Rainscreen cladding is becoming a more common preference with American architects for the benefits of rainwater management. The key benefits of using Engineered Stone Rainscreen panels include:

  • Rainscreen cladding creates a weather-resistant barrier and keeps moisture away from the core wall.
  • Efficient water drainage prevents condensation and mold.
  • Engineered stone panel production has a lower carbon footprint than any other mainstream rainscreen panel type. 
  • Greater design options offer a range of textures, gloss levels, limitless colors and designs.
  • Simple installation (See Types of Installation Methods) reduces installation time on site. Panels come prefabricated as well as with predrilled holes.
  • Easily cleaned and maintained. A simple clean with soapy water will bring the façade back to life, including removing graffiti!
  • Engineered stone rainscreen panels have a proven long life span and the longest warranties available on the market.
  • Low environmental impact by using recycled materials and environmentally friendly packaging.
  • Rainscreen panels are stronger.
  • Rainscreen panels have low moisture absorption.
  • Allow versatility of shape and design.
