Whether you choose wall cladding that’s made of aluminum, galvanized steel, brick, wood, imitation stone, or plastic, you’re choosing it for one reason, and that is to protect the building. You’re choosing the best wall cladding available in order to prevent weather from causing damage to the interior of the building, thus insuring that the occupants of the building can be dry and comfortable inside. The interior of a structure should be a weather-free zone, and the job of wall cladding is to keep it that way.
Porosity is the ratio for the volume of the wall cladding’s openings with the total volume of materials. How readily fluids flow through porous materials is determined by its permeability, which evaluates the watertight capability of the wall cladding. At Danpal, porosity and permeability are tested in order to guarantee that the company standards are met. With Danpal’s engineering and design, the tests are proof that the company’s wall cladding is superior to other brands on the market.
How Does Wall Cladding Work?
Public enemy number one for a building is moisture, and weather, with its rain and snow, is the cause of moisture penetrating a building’s defenses. A building is most vulnerable to the danger of moisture invading in the joints and penetration areas. When a leak does take place, quite often it takes awhile before anyone notices and during that time, as moisture spreads, so does mold. Wall cladding from Danpal is a double-notched system that secures a building from the moisture that ruins insulation. With the air gap in the panels of the wall cladding, there’s a convection motion that keeps the insulation dry.

Weather and Wall Cladding
For most of us, weather is no more than a factor that decides whether we’ll wear clothing to keep us warm or whether we can free ourselves of heavy coats and gloves. Will we need to carry an umbrella or will we be wearing sunglasses? If it’s going to snow, we might leave a little early for work so that we can allow for weather conditions on the road. But once we’re inside, we’re snug and dry and the weather is just what’s going on outside our windows. For a building, weather is a lot more immediate. There is no inside; there’s only the external building, a direct target for the rain, snow, hail, winds and hot sun. A building must be protected against all of the potential weather manifestations that can occur according to the season of the year.

Choose Danpal’s Ventilated Rainscreen System (VRS) for Your Wall Cladding
Danpal is well known in the industry for its microcell technology. The microcell polycarbonate panels that are used in its Ventilated Rainscreen Systeem are three times stronger than traditional rainscreen cladding. That allows the occupants of a building to be confident that regardless of the weather outside, they will remain dry inside because leakages aren’t going to show up.
