Sleek Streamlined Vitreous Enamel Panels for Modern Architecture
Product Description
Vitreous enamel cladding and architectural wall cladding refer to
the use of vitreous enamel panels as a protective and decorative
covering for building exteriors or interiors. Vitreous enamel is a
type of glass coating that is fused onto a metal substrate,
typically steel, through a high-temperature firing process. This
creates a durable, weather-resistant, and visually appealing
surface.
Vitreous enamel cladding offers several benefits for architectural
applications:
1-Durability: Vitreous enamel panels are highly resistant to
corrosion, UV radiation, and weathering. They can withstand harsh
environmental conditions, ensuring long-term performance and
minimal maintenance requirements.
2-Aesthetic Appeal: The smooth and glossy finish of vitreous enamel
panels provides a visually striking appearance to buildings. They
are available in a wide range of colors, textures, and finishes,
allowing for diverse design possibilities.
3-Weather Resistance: Vitreous enamel cladding offers excellent
resistance to moisture, temperature fluctuations, and fading. It
helps protect the underlying structure from water ingress and
prevents color or surface degradation.
4-Easy Maintenance: Vitreous enamel panels are relatively low
maintenance. They can be easily cleaned with mild detergents and
water, and their non-porous surface resists dirt, stains, and
graffiti.
5-Versatility: Vitreous enamel cladding can be used in various
architectural applications, including facades, roof systems, column
covers, and interior wall cladding. It can be customized to fit
specific design requirements and can be fabricated into different
shapes and sizes.
Product Certificates
Vitreous enamel panels can undergo testing and certification by
various international standards organizations and testing
laboratories to ensure their quality and compliance with industry
standards. Here are some common organizations and tests relevant to
vitreous enamel panels:
1-BS (British Standards): The British Standards Institution (BSI)
provides standards and testing for various products, including
vitreous enamel panels. BS EN ISO 28765 is a British Standard that
specifically addresses vitreous and porcelain enamels for
industrial applications.
2-EN (European Norms): The European Committee for Standardization
(CEN) issues European Norms (EN) that define the technical
specifications and performance requirements for products, including
vitreous enamel panels. EN 14431 is the European standard for
vitreous enamel panels and specifies the requirements for their
properties and performance.
3-ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials): ASTM
International develops and publishes technical standards for
various materials and products. ASTM standards relevant to vitreous
enamel panels include ASTM B604 and ASTM B605, which cover the
testing methods for metallic coatings and enamels on metal
substrates.
4-SGS (Société Générale de Surveillance): SGS is a multinational
company that provides inspection, testing, and certification
services. They offer comprehensive testing and certification
services for various products, including vitreous enamel panels.
SGS can perform tests to verify the quality, performance, and
compliance of vitreous enamel panels with the applicable standards.

Note:
The thickness of the pattern depends on the color; The warranty time of the pattern will be same as the surface
coating of VITREOUS ENAMEL PANELS; The pattern on the curved panel (column shape) will be produced by
man-hand, so it might be slightly tolerance for each piece. Where shown in the Drawings, the Wall Cladding shall be finished
with Vitreous Enamel system. The coating is based on Dry Powder Electrostatic Enameling. The
color shall be for one side and be selected by the Architect/SO. |
