We Offer New Facades
09. 09. 2013 | News
We have equipped our manufacturing plant with new CNC machines, allowing us to offer new types of facades. Buildings based on the principle of modular construction are mainly distinguished by the fact that most activities are performed still in the manufacturing plant. The investor can then choose from multiple options. The final façade may be either implemented on site, in which case the whole portfolio of façade systems available on the market can be used, or the modules may be provided with their façade still in the manufacturing plant. In the latter case the module frame is visible in the Standard Line façade and the façade is part of the sandwich wall.
KOMA MODULAR offers two new types of this façade as this year ´s new development.
The first type is a special lamella façade combining vertical sheet metal lamellas and cement-bonded chipboard. This façade maintains the visual appearance of modularity. The lamella system of steel zinc-coated metal sheets is manufactured by new plant equipment where preparation of unfolded shapes is performed with the help of a cutting machine. For accurate machine programming each lamella type is first computer-modelled in 3D CATIA SW. Manufacture and assembly of this façade system is performed as a single process in the manufacturing hall.
The second type introduces to the façade system portfolio exterior plastic planks by Deceuninck. The plastic planks by Deceuninck are coloured planks with a visible groove for use in façade cladding. Our construction department has in addition designed fixation of this façade in a way applicable on the module walls right in the manufacturing plant. This façade was first used for the walls of the modular school in the Belgian town De Klinge, described elsewhere.
