Integrated cladding and insulation system - PIZ
PIZ is an innovative cladding system for civil and industrial buildings. The panel is made up of a modified fiber-reinforced cement mortar layer coupled with a slab of insulating material. PIZ was developed to satisfy the growing needs of the construction market in terms of energy savings and architectural improvement. The system is designed for covering all types of buildings, both new and under restructuring.
Piz facade systems give a modern appearance to any building by respecting the initial architectural specifications of the building. Moreover, PIZ solutions have great advantages: the maintenance costs are low and the weathering ressistance is high.
applications / uses
Piz systems have a wide range of applications:
Civilbuildings
Commercialbuildings
Industrialbuildings
characteristics / advantages
PIZ facade panels are ideal for both new buildings and renovated buildings due to the following attributes:
- Appearance - Maximum freedom of design, configuration and expression, combinations of shapes, colors and joints,
amazing improvements of existing buildings. - Performance - Resistance to atmospheric agents (water, wind, heat, cold)
- Good fire behavior (class 1 certified materials) - delayed flame propagation
- Impact and abrasion resistance
- Cost-effectiveness
- Energy saving performance
- Duration - Metal structure with anticorrosion coating, high quality cement surface, certified anchoring systems,
anti-deterioration insulating layer
finishes / colours
Smooth
Rough
Granular
Thanks to the wide range of colours and finishes, it is always possible to identify the best solutions for a building to meet the customer`s specific needs. Eight Basic colours(plus white) are available in 5 shades, generating a palette of 40 colours. Four finishes are provided: smooth, rough, regular and grooved.
assembly / mounting
The structure is installed by securing light alloy guides on the surface to be covered and the fixing of insulating Zecca panels on these guides. The screw of expansion fixings are determined at design stage according to support surface(reinforced cement, brick, metal structure). In case of renovation work, no preliminary activity ot cleaning of the support surface is required. Panels are fixed on the surface by means of anchoring system and of special section bars. Installation requires simple mechanical operation; no skilled workers or special components, other than provided with the system are necessary. Panels are mounted in a horizontal direction. Vertically, the instalation is performed from bottom to top.
