What is a horizontal profile anchoring system for ventilated façades?
A horizontal profiling system is an aluminium substructure fixed to the building support that allows the ventilated façade cladding to be secured using profiles arranged horizontally. This system distributes loads to the main structure and ensures stability, ventilation and alignment of the cladding.
It is a solution used in projects where the modulation of parts or the architectural design requires a specific horizontal configuration.
When is it better to choose a horizontal system rather than a vertical one?
The horizontal system is recommended when:
- The modulation of the cladding requires continuous fixing in a horizontal direction.
- The architectural design prioritises horizontally aligned joints.
- The aim is to optimise certain ceramic formats or technical panels.
The choice between horizontal or vertical profiles depends on the structural calculation, the type of material and the installation strategy on site.
Which materials are compatible with STROW horizontal systems?
STROW horizontal anchoring systems are compatible with various technical cladding materials, including:
- Natural stone
- Ceramic and porcelain tiles
- Prefabricated panels
- Thin cladding
Final compatibility will depend on the weight, thickness and fixing system chosen for each project.
What advantages does horizontal profiling offer in ventilated façades?
The main advantages include:
- Flexibility in architectural design
- Adaptation to specific modulations
- Precision in the alignment of parts
- Lightweight and resistant structural system
In addition, it allows for optimised installation times when the project is designed for this type of solution.
Do horizontal systems require structural calculations?
Yes. All anchoring systems for ventilated façades must be dimensioned according to wind loads, the weight of the cladding itself, and current regulations. Proper structural calculations guarantee safety, durability, and technical compliance.
We provide technical support to determine the most suitable horizontal system based on the characteristics of the project.
