Using Single Skin Profile Panels Can Help Your Next Project

Single skin profile panels are exterior cladding systems composed of a single sheet of metal—such as steel, aluminum, copper, or zinc—shaped into a specific profile. The panels are manufactured in a range of shapes, such as squares, rectangles, diamonds, and custom designs. These panels are mounted either vertically or horizontally on a building’s exterior to create a contemporary look. Single skin profile panels were initially used for industrial buildings; however, they have become popular in commercial, residential, and even unique projects. Continue Reading

The Importance of Building Envelope Systems

Viable construction always begins with an efficient building envelope. The building envelope separates the interior of the building from the exterior and essentially consists of the parts of a building that keep weather elements and extreme temperatures out. This includes the roof, walls, and below-grade waterproofing of a building. However, a high-performance building envelope must meet certain requirements for sound, temperature-control, fire-resistant, and watertight needs. Here’s an overview of the parts that make up the building envelope. Continue Reading
