The oversized panels (with precision cuts performed in the factory) offered superior durability and aesthetics.

Overall, the Ductal® Cladding system was the architect’s best solution for this mineral skin, without compromising the project’s budget.

Our large, lightweight Ductal® UHPC (Ultra-High Performance Concrete) rainscreen cladding panels are produced in a wide variety of textures, finishes and colors so you need never sacrifice beauty for practicality. Strong, resistant and flexible, Ductal® cladding fulfils regulatory standards across the board, and ensures you, the architect, get the look that best fits your project.
