CUPACLAD 101 Logic natural slate rainscreen cladding

Simple, balanced design that puts the texture and sheen of natural slate right to the fore. Horizontal 40x20cm slates on an invisible fixing system, supplied in the UK by Licata Building Systems.

Overview

Balanced design, natural slate at the fore

Featuring simple, balanced design, the CUPACLAD 101 Logic rainscreen cladding system puts the texture and sheen of natural slate right to the fore.

CUPACLAD 101 Logic is part of the CUPACLAD 101 series, made up of systems with invisible fixings that make natural slate the main attraction of a facade.

The system gives any facade balance, combines ideally with other materials, and flaunts natural slate's texture and sheen. It is well suited to residential, hotel and commercial projects where the slate itself is intended to be the defining feature of the elevation.

Fixing System

Invisible fixings, engineered for slate

The CUPACLAD 101 series systems share a single fixing system with self-drilling screws designed specifically by CUPA engineers to ensure optimum slate rainscreen cladding installation, while remaining totally invisible so the design is not affected.

The screws are made from stainless steel and feature a large diameter flat head to ensure and facilitate proper fixing of the slate.

Because the fixing is concealed, the finished elevation reads as a continuous slate surface with no visible clips or fasteners interrupting the face.

Applications

Where CUPACLAD 101 Logic suits

Slate as the feature

Where the elevation is intended to read as natural slate, with no visible fixings to interrupt the surface. The simplest and most balanced of the 101 series.

Mixed material facades

The regular horizontal coursing combines well with render, brick, glazing and timber, making it a natural choice where slate forms part of a wider material palette.

Ventilated rainscreen build-ups

Installed as a ventilated rainscreen over a supporting subframe, working alongside insulation to manage moisture and thermal performance across the facade.
