The Images Swisspan System Small – choose from
An insulated render system used to overclad existing properties where mechanical fixing is problematic and restricted to structural elements – typically structural frames with non load-bearing steel or concrete infill panels and non-traditional house types such as Airey Duo Slab, BISF, Cornish, Crudens and Unity. Insulation materials are mechanically fixed to a galvanised steel horizontal support rail system that spans between structural columns, and are then faced with M.R. Polymer modified traditional renders or lightweight Silicone or Mineral renders. Applications • For refurbishment applications, where the structure
does not provide continuous support for insulation
• Suitable for new build where specific project
detailing requires
• Ideal for problematic substrates or uneven
remodelling applications
• For unrestricted use on buildings up to 4 Storeys
Performance • BBA approved, fully warranted system with life
expectancy in excess of 30 years
• Manufactured to ISO9001:2000 and ISO14001:2004

• Fully weather resistant, whilst remaining
vapour permeable
• Integrated rail system provides secure fixing and
load transfer to underlying load bearing structure
• Allows the fabric of the building to act as a heat
store, increasing thermal efficiency
• Eliminates cold bridging, condensation and mould growth • Reduces heating costs and carbon dioxide emissions • Protects the structural fabric, limiting movement
and thermal shock and freeze-thaw cycles associated with traditional brickwork façades
• Highly resistant to impact damage • Rated Class 0 for surface spread of flame
