Valcan’s VitraDual aluminium cladding is a premium, non-combustible rainscreen solution designed for modern architectural façades. Manufactured from marine-grade 5754 aluminium and classified A1 in accordance with BS EN 13501-1, VitraDual offers the highest level of fire safety, making it ideal for high-rise and high-risk buildings.
What sets VitraDual apart is its combination of aesthetic appeal, durability, and versatility. The panels are sleek, flat, and available in a wide range of finishes including solid colours, metallics, chromatics, stone, and wood effects – allowing architects to achieve virtually any design vision. Whether used in contemporary or traditional settings, VitraDual delivers a crisp, clean look that enhances any building envelope.
Despite its solid construction, VitraDual is lightweight and rigid, typically weighing just 8.13 kg/m² for a 3mm panel. This makes it easier to handle and install, reducing labour and structural load. The panels can be fabricated into various forms – cassette panels, planks, standing seam effects, or flat sheets – and can even be perforated or curved, offering exceptional design flexibility.
Durability is a key strength. VitraDual panels are highly impact-resistant and weatherproof, withstanding harsh environments including coastal and industrial areas. They are coated with industry-leading PVDF Kynar 500 or FEVE paints, known for their long-lasting colour retention and resistance to UV, salt spray, and pollutants.
The system is low maintenance, thanks to its micro-porous surface that repels dirt and allows easy cleaning. It’s also BBA and CWCT accredited and verified by the CCPI (Code for Construction Product Information), ensuring compliance with rigorous performance standards.
VitraDual is available as part of Valcan’s VitraVerse system, a complete cladding solution that includes fire barriers, breather membranes, and subframe systems. This integrated approach simplifies specification and installation while ensuring full compliance with building regulations.
To support long-term confidence, VitraDual comes with a warranty of up to 30 years, which is transferable upon application.
