Telling Architectural
Terracotta cladding rainscreen cladding

Telling Architectural offer innovation in the design and management of rainscreen cladding that include specialist forms of construction in lightweight steel walling, pre-fabrication, natural stone, terracotta, ceramic, porcelain and hydraulic lime render on recycled glass insulation.

Rainscreen Façades - Terracotta Rainscreen Cladding

Telling Architectural distribute a range of systems in the UK, Ireland and the USA. We provide an unequalled level of technical sales and advisory services including structural calculations, conceptual and project design and budget costs in the UK. Our activities have been extended from a primary focus upon Argeton terracotta to include ceramic, porcelain and natural stone rainscreens selected from proven manufacturers throughout Europe.

The company can participate in the installation of our systems by providing an experienced contract support manager and project supervision where requested.

Terracotta Rainscreens are manufactured under the ‘Argeton’ process created by the German Clay Tile Manufacturers Association. BBA approval has recently been secured. Porcelain panels from Imola and Ariostea enable larger formats to be created and ceramic tiles by Mayor offer fired patterns and colours to meet increasing demands for corporate livery in façades. Lightweight concrete panels faced with natural stone or coloured glass by Caparol/Alsecco offer an exiting new dimension to our range.

The systems utilise the proven principle of the ventilated cavity, creating a condensation free and thermally efficient cladding whose components are suited to modern architecture. The natural beauty and symmetry of the tile/panel formats lies in the precise and clean lines achieved without overlapping. We provide fire stopping measures where regulations so require and the expanded use of 66% recycled cellular glass as the insulation medium is being promoted.

The Telling Architectural façades interface readily with alternative forms of curtain walling, glazing and insulated render systems to provide flexibility of design in the creation of an individual style.

Our associate company, Telling Lime has developed a rendered rainscreen system that uses Foamglas® (66% recycled cellular glass) as the base for its render system of natural hydraulic lime.

Composition:- The rainscreens are constructed to comply with DIN 18516 Part 1 relating to ventilated non load bearing structural cladding systems. Natural clay and ceramic tiles are available in grids of up to 1500mm in length and 400mm in height. Porcelain panels are available in sizes up to 1200mm x 600mm in height. Stone and glass panels can be sized as desired but can be created in storey height panels up to 1.20 metres in width. The weights of the systems will be between 40-60 kgs/m² with the aluminium substructures designed in accordance with the British Standards applicable to rainscreen façades. All systems have been tested at the Taywood Laboratories in the UK for compliance with CWCT Standards, a pre-requisite for NHBC approval.

Appearance:- Smooth faced natural clay tiles in thirteen colours, patterned or glazed ceramics to any RAL colour, polished riven or matt porcelain and twenty natural stone panels are offered from our extensive range. External corners and linings to windows can be formed in powder coated aluminium, mitred or created as prefabricated stone panels. Ancillary trims can be selected either to contrast or blend with the colour of the façade selected.

Our façade can be installed in both refurbishment and new construction. Structural deviations are readily overcome by the aluminium support system recommended. Traditional backgrounds of blockwork or concrete are suitable with thermal bridging between the cleat and the structure prevented by the use of a thermal separator. Lightweight steel and timber frame construction can be designed to accommodate the system.

Design & Planning:- Standard sections and details are available to assist the designer in the selection of appropriate interface details. Utilising CAD an elevation can be laid out to grid in the preferred tile module. Structural calculations for the fixing of the support structure, wind speeds and any loadings that may be applicable will be undertaken by the in-house design and engineering department of Telling Architectural. These calculations are project specific, particularly in refurbishment where the age and condition of the fabric will require testing and analysis to establish its structural integrity.

Taylor Maxwell Partnership

In August 2004 a partnership was formed with the cladding systems division of Taylor Maxwell. Their operation from fourteen regional offices provides excellent support and technical services for the specifier that is closely linked to our in house design department. Our collaboration is being continually expanded in to other innovative cladding forms where our unique service will reduce the load in design responsibility upon the consultant/contractor in interfacing and programming. The services offered in conjunction with Taylor Maxwell include but are not restricted to:

  • Electronic CAD Downloads in DXF & DWG Formats
  • Specification Downloads
  • Design & CONDAM Evaluation
  • Management & Design Coordination
  • Planning & Budgetary Advice
  • Maintenance Manuals
  • Installation Training & Site Supervision
  • Approved List of Contractors (Job Specific)
