K-SLAT cladding system

The word "slat" means board, or plank. This system is innovative because of the elongated format of the slats, which are 1800 x 200 mm and can be installed both vertically and horizontally.  K-SLAT is a concealed fixing system, without screws or rivets that break up the uniform aesthetics of a natural facade.

It is a by-product of stone, almost entirely composed of natural components. (*) Our facade systems are not commercialized in France and/or in UK. Caption   Caption More
