Ritek XL Thermal Wall System
The Ritek XL Thermal Wall System is a pre-fabricated wall panel system that is manufactured specifically to the architect’s drawings and is delivered complete with a high performance thermal insulation layer bonded to the inside of the panel. This ensures that what is delivered to site is exactly what is required for the job and not more or less. The Ritek XL Thermal Wall System is used for all external (building envelope) walls where thermal insulation, energy efficiency is required. The key benefits of the Ritek XL Thermal Wall System are built in thermal insulation attachment providing a high level of energy efficiency and thermal comfort, high structural integrity, rapid speed of installation, reduced on site waste, fire and acoustic ratings. The Ritek XL Thermal Wall System is made up of pre-fabricated panels used to provide permanent formwork for in situ reinforced concrete walls. Ritek wall panels consists of 6mm fibre cement, recessed edge facing sheets, bonded to patented vertical composite studs plus an integrated thermal insulation layer. All aluminium parts and accessories that are used are protected by chromate plating for full protection. Panels are stood in place, both vertical and horizontal reinforcement is placed as required and the wall completed by core filling the panels with structural concrete. Horizontal steel reinforcing bars can be placed at spacings in accordance with AS 3600-2009.
