NBT Pavaclad

The NBT Steel Frame Pavaclad System is for steel frame buildings externally finished with any type of cladding including facing bricks, rendered blockwork, timber boards or shingles, tile, terracotta claddings, metal sheet etc.

Pavaclad systems use woodfibre boards over the outside of the frame in a continuous layer, with the racking board on the inside of the structure. The racking board acts as the airtightness layer and vapour control in a breathing wall construction. Internally we recommend a service void behind the plasterboard for effective airtightness control and easy service alterations.

System Benefits:

• Full design and site support.
• Excellent thermal performance, with very low thermal bridging, enabling very slim construction for new Part L compliance.
• Alternatively very high thermal shell performance possible in slim and cost effective way.
• Excellent airtightness by design.
• Excellent acoustic insulation.
• Good overheating control.
• Fully breathing construction.
• All system components supplied from one source.
• Tried and tested system, fully certified.

Environmental Performance:

• BREEAM Green Guide rating: A (with timber cladding)
• Carbon positive (locks up more than is used) and non toxic.
• Woodfibre Boards are over 95% waste.
