GRC facade panels

Facade panels cover a building's face with large GRC units, each with its relief, window reveals or fins cast in. A thin GRC skin is a fraction of the weight of a precast concrete panel, so the frame and fixings behind can be lighter.

GRC is a cement-based material and non-combustible, a real difference from aluminium composite panels with a plastic core.

Facade panels in Chennai and Tamil Nadu

  • Showroom fronts on busy commercial streets need to stand out and stand up to sun and rain; GRC panels give depth and pattern that flat cladding can't.
  • Apartment and office buildings use panels with deep window reveals and fins to shade glass from the low east and west sun.

Facade panel styles we make

Four of the styles we cast most. Every one is made to your size, and the pattern or profile can be changed to your drawing.

  • Window reveal panels

    Each panel frames a window in a deep reveal that shades the glass.

  • Ribbed panels

    Vertical ribs that catch the light and hide the joints.

  • Faceted panels

    Diamond facets that change with the sun through the day.

  • Perforated panels

    Graded perforations let light and air through a solid-looking front.

How facade panels are made and fixed

  1. Panel layout

    We divide the elevation into panels with your architect, setting joints, openings and fixing points.

  2. Moulds

    A mould is made for each panel type; repeating panels make a facade economical.

  3. Casting

    Panels are cast with fixing inserts, often on a steel stud frame, then cured and checked for size.

  4. Brackets

    Stainless steel brackets are anchored to the structure and set out to line and level.

  5. Hanging and sealing

    Panels are lifted, hung and aligned, and the joints sealed against rain.

Questions about GRC facade panels

Can GRC replace ACP on a showroom front?

Yes, as a cement-based alternative with relief and depth. The panel layout and fixings are designed for the building; tell us the front's size and the look you want.

How are facade panels fixed?

To brackets anchored to the building's structure. Near the sea, we use stainless steel fixings.

Can facade panels go on an existing building?

Often, as a new skin over the old front. We check the structure and the fixing points first.

Do perforated panels let rain in?

Some rain passes through any opening. Perforated panels go in front of a weathertight wall or glazing, not as the wall itself.
