Ventilated wall design: "a wall that breathes"

All SWISSPEARL® panels and systems are specially designed for the rain screen principle associated with permanent ventilation. The panels deflect most of the rain and the ventilated cavity carries away any moisture. The effectiveness of the system depends on a clear minimum cavity of 25 mm (depending on height of building) and on ventilation openings provided at the base and top of the cladding area, windows, etc. The long-time proven superior quality of the SWISSEARL ventilated façade systems rest on its most advanced façade "know-how" and system competence for fibre reinforced cement panels.
