Neoparies Crystallised Glass Rainscreen
-
Weight/Strength
NEOPARIES is lighter and stronger than granite and more resistant to scratching and abrasion than marble. It is not subject to the fissure and fracture patterns that commonly result from the quarrying of stone. With a greater bending strength, they can fabricated into thinner panels than natural stone. -
Easily Formed into Curved Panels
NEOPARIES can be re-formed into a wide range of convex and concave radii panels, resulting in greater design flexibility at lower cost than hewn stone. -
Impermeability/Minimum Maintenance
NEOPARIES is virtually impermeable and are not subject to freeze-thaw damage, penetration by rust, mortar or other staining substances. Moisture absorption, as a design consideration, has been eliminated. With NEOPARIES, contaminants are easily removed during regular building maintenance. Even graffiti can be cleaned without difficulties. -
Low Thermal Expansion
With an extremely low coefficient of expansion, NEOPARIES is not subject to thermal cracking that can affect other cladding materials. -
Weather Resistance
NEOPARIES is significantly more resistant to acids, alkalis, oils and other chemical substances than either marble or granite. Unlike stone, their surface and physical properties are not degraded even after years of exposure to environmental pollutants, including acid rain. -
Panel Sizes
Up to 1800x900 in flat panels
