HunterDouglas® Single Skin Cassette (SSC) is an open jointed rainscreen cladding system that is based on ventilated façade technology. In ventilated façade technology important functions of a wall construction such as aesthetics, thermal insulation, weather proofing and structural performance are separated. This permits the optimisation of each of these functions to perfectly suit the building requirements.

 

Open panel joints between HunterDouglas® SSC panels allow for cavity ventilation. The shape of panel and its substructure drains out rain and condensation from behind the cladding surface. The system can be installed to almost any load bearing wall construction. Luxalon® SSC is ideally suited to any building, low or high rise, where thefollowing points are of prime importance:

 

A wide range of joint and interface solutions are available for internal and external corners, parapets, cills and connection details to other building elements. Unique for HunterDouglas® SSC is that the system is designed for horizontal panel orientation without requiring additional reinforcement within the panel. Its low weight and simple connection details make HunterDouglas® SSC excellently suited for both new-build and renovation projects.
