MAKING BRICKWORK LESS WORK
CERTUS™ is easy and cost-effective to fit, because it is supplied as standard, factory-assembled panel modules. Brick slips are cut from standard clay facing units, which are mechanically fixed into a stainless steel carrier. Panels are simply fixed to a standard rain screen framing system and then pointed on site. So you get the look and feel of a traditional brick façade, but in a fraction of the time.
- Up to 5x faster to fit than alternative kit systems
- Can be fitted by one person, with no site cutting or modifications required
- Uses standard clay facing bricks (F2 durability)
- Site detailing and drawings provided by ACS
