NV8 is an alternative NVELOPE system for secret fix / mechanically fixed applications NV8 is an alternative NVELOPE system for structurally bonded applications – On site or Off site Secured using hangers and undercut stud anchors, screws or structural adhesive (Sika) to provide a concealed fixing.
Horizontal NVELOPE channel profiles are fixed to the vertical profiles. Rainscreen panels are hung from and secured to the horizontal profiles with hangers and adjustable hangers.
NVELOPE 'T' and 'L' profiles are fixed using NVELOPE support brackets, fixed through a series of fixed and flexible points. NVELOPE fixed point brackets absorb both vertical dead loads.
NVELOPE bracket spacing is determined by cladding options such as the dimensions and weight of the façade cladding, local wind loads. NVELOPE flexible point brackets absorb wind loading and allow for expansion and contraction.
Material:
Manufactured from extruded aluminium alloys conforming to EN 573-3 (material) and EN 755 production standards.
Approvals:
British Board of Agrément (BBA) - 09/4678
Options:
NVELOPE brackets (V): allows adjustment between the face of the primary support to outer face of vertical profile. Thermal isolators: hard PVC isolator assembled as standard (located between the NVELOPE bracket and the primary structural support system).
