Signa, limitless facade-possibilities Signa gives a whole new dimension to brick as a facade cladding. This is an innovative facade cladding system that offers you many possibilities for exclusive projects, high-rise buildings or other architectural projects. The architect can create his or her own design with expressive facades that fully highlight the character of brick. While at the same time he or she is opting for a fast result.
What is Signa? Signa consists of a weather-resistant Rock panel® onto which a composition - designed by the architect - of Vandersanden brick slips is adhesively bonded. In this way projects are given a unique and striking look. The architect can now play like a virtuoso with relief, colour, format and brickwork bond - and this even in projects where a brick finishing may have initially appeared to be unfeasible.
The Signa-panel knows different mounting options. The most well-known techniques are the mounting on aluminium profiles or wood constructions. These constructions can be mounted on different substrates.
Millions of Possibilities On the basis of four variables millions of patterns are conceivable. COLOUR The architect chooses and combines from the full Vandersanden line. We offer you a range of more than one hundred colours, expanded by the four surface textures: hand-moulded, formback, water-struck and aged.
FORMAT As a basis you can use the stretcher, header and sole of five Vandersanden brick formats: M50 ± 190 x 90 x 50 mm, WF ± 210 x 100 x 50 mm, M65 ± 190 x 90 x 65 mm, DF ± 210 x 100 x 65 mm, NF ± 240 x 115 x 70 mm
RELIEF We can cut slips of various thicknesses for the stretcher, the header and the sole. You choose a straight or diagonal cutting line. Moreover, several parts can be used from one and the same brick. The architect does not have to limit himself to just a single cutting line. By combining several cutting lines he or she creates an intense composition with a varying relief that is full of character.
BOND You can apply the familiar brickwork bonds such as half-brick, English bond or irregular bond. Combinations of these brickwork bonds are achievable. Horizontal, vertical and even diagonal brick sections are amongst the possibilities. This is feasible because Signa is not laid but adhesively bonded, thus offering greater freedom.
