Linea – Wave
Surrey
Project info
Completed in 2021, the Linea project showcases an innovative application of our advanced technology. The installation features a combination of Aluminum Composite Material (ACM) in 3 custom colours and woodgrain metal surfaces, which not only enhance the building’s aesthetic appeal but also provide exceptional durability. Designed by IBI Group and developed by Rize Alliance, the project benefits from the flexibility of System A, which is adept at accommodating irregular panel shapes. This system allows panels to be installed either top-to-bottom or side-to-side, providing a versatile solution that meets the architectural demands and unique panel layout of the project.
KPS System A is distinguished by its ability to maintain instantaneous pressure equalization, as per AAMA 508 Rainscreen Evaluation standards, regardless of the panel shape configuration. This ensures consistent performance in weather resistance and ventilation, essential for the building’s longevity and energy efficiency. The installation, managed by Hovercraft Builders alongside KPS, underscores a commitment to precision and quality, successfully integrating a complex panel system into the Linea project’s distinctive design.
