Extruclad Profile Range
CGL Systems are pleased to announce the launch of the Extruclad Profile range to its portfoilio. We at CGL believe there is an area of the market that is not currently available to clients and that a strong and sturdy extrusion to be used as an alternative to folded or roll formed products manufactured from sheets or coils. CGL Systems have launched a range of 5 different profiles that are manufactured from extruded aluminium with a nominal thickness of 2mm and a height of 200mm. They are available in up to 6lm lengths. The profile are shaped with curves and points to reflect our vision of the future of having a new and aesthetically pleasing different look to a building. The Extruclad range is supported with the CGL CS1 support system and the range operates as a ventilated façade like so many of CGL systems products.
Eurocentral Commercial Development, Glasgow
CGL is currently concluding the supply of 30,000m2 of its Aluminium Traypanel System for this project, the largest commercial office development in construction in the UK. Project architect, Keppie Design, worked closely with CGL and the cladding contractors, Lakesmere Limited and Grainger Building Services Limited, to design key façade interfaces and economic structural design and the project has attracted approval from all parties. CGL's supply partner, Novelis, supplied the 2mm thick Pvdf coil- coated aluminium sheeting which displays excellent flatness and perfect colour consistency. CGL also supplied all the membrane-lined internal gutters for the project and these were installed by Lakemere and Grainger.
Product Animations
CGL has created a DVD which displays animations of its cladding, gutter, and walling solutions. It is often said that a picture is worth a thousand words and this clever, live depiction of how the systems work confirms that saying. The DVD is available to interested specifiers and clients by request and is also displayed in clip format on the company's website against each separate system.
