Invisible Anchoring System

Dry Stone Cladding

Thermaline^®‘s Invisible Anchoring System revolutionizes cladding design, empowering architects to pursue innovative and daring visions. With its flexibility and versatility, this system accommodates various cladding materials and thicknesses, enabling designers to explore new possibilities.

By utilizing the Invisible Anchoring System, the integrity of the building facade remains intact, free from visible fasteners. Anchors securely hold cladding panels in place through strategically drilled holes, reducing bending moments by up to 50% compared to traditional methods. This optimization allows for thinner panels and larger sizes, while also accommodating variations in panel thickness.

Backed by extensive testing and a proven track record, the Invisible Anchoring System assures reliability and performance across a range of panel materials, empowering architects to push the boundaries of architectural design.

Features

Faster Installation thanks to hook and hang type system.
Position of the anchor on the back of the panel can be selected without constraints.
The un-even thickness of the stone panels can be easily compensated.
Statically optimized position of the anchor, hence higher loads than traditional systems and that too without stressing the facade panels by lateral bracing.
Breakage loads are up to seven times higher than for edge attachment installations.
Greater earthquake resistance. Tested up to magnitude 9.1 on the open-ended Richter scale.
Damaged cladding panel can easily be replaced without removing or damaging adjacent panels.
Economic advantages by allowing thinner panels of expensive material to be used.
Panels can be adjusted in any direction.
No chemical bonding required. Hence, greater safety.
More than 50 different types of materials with thickness ranging from 8 – 40 mm can be used.
- Natural Stone – Granite, Marble, Lime Stone, Sandstone, Jura Stone and Slate.
- Ceramic and Porcelain tiles.
- Man Made Cladding Panels – Glass, Fiber Cement, High-Pressure Laminate & Solid Surface Material.
Insulation can be installed between the outside of the building and the façade panel.
Non-flammable, mechanical and permanently safe attachment system.
