Discover how aluminum facades perform across climates, including coastal, marine, and extreme environments, and how to choose the right system.

When it comes to modern construction, prefabrication brings a lot to the table for architects, developers, and building owners.

When it comes to protecting a building, the facade plays a huge role in keeping everything inside safe from what’s happening outside. If you’re dealing with places where the weather is extreme, there’s lots of industrial activity, or you’re at a higher elevation, you know the building’s exterior faces some real challenges. It’s worth considering how things like big temperature swings, corrosive agents, strong sunlight, and even airborne dust can speed up wear and tear on a facade.

When it comes to managing moisture and keeping things comfortable indoors, floating facades made with aluminum really stand out.

At aPlank, we believe great building envelopes start with collaboration. That’s why we’re excited to share our co-branded partnership with DuPont™ ArmorWall™ Systems, a powerful combination that delivers design flexibility, fire resistance, and superior performance in a single assembly.
