Weatherproofing Among ZINTL’s Many Advantages

HVG Facades’ ZINTL range of interlocking panel profiles offer a fully compliant, safe, cost effective and aesthetically pleasing solution that is certified to AS1530.1 and tested to a weatherproof test AS4284.

Providing fire resistant external cladding that is versatile and non-combustible, ZINTL offers timelessly elegant and enduring material.

The ZINTL range is Australian made and owned, giving extra piece of mind when choosing the next façade design.

ZINTL uses ezy HD² technology, the first coating system to achieve a high definition, supremely durable wood grain finish using an advanced powder-on-powder coating system.

Unique to the Australian market, ezy HD² technology has been widely used in Europe since 1997 and is particularly popular in Italy, where 80 per cent of all wood-effect coating is created with ezy HD².

Ezy HD² provides aluminium with an authentic-looking woodgrain finish that’s long-lasting, easy to clean and doesn’t require any of the costly, time-consuming maintenance of real wood.

Unlike timber, aluminium isn’t vulnerable to attack by termites and will never warp or rot. Totally fully recyclable, aluminium is also a sustainable product that’s greener, safer and even stronger than wood.

ZINTL, which uses ezy HD² technology, is suitable for use in coastal and tropical environments, areas exposed to high humidity, pollution, and salinity, as well as other extreme weather conditions.

It can even be used on aluminium products that are situated right at the water’s edge and for buildings, at any height, in all BCA classes.

Suitable for residential, commercial, education, sporting, and health care projects, its modern design and durability make it particularly well suited to coastal properties and high traffic areas.

ZINTL interlocking panels are available in a 300mm width alternative, giving the freedom to mix and match profile sizes and design even more creative facades.

You can combine the new ZINTL 300 profile with our existing Linea, Standing Seam 190 and Shadow 200, in any sequence you like, for a unique look.

The increased board width even brings the added benefit of a 30 per cent reduction in installation time. Ideally suited to larger commercial projects or multi residential, the ZINTL range offers maximum design impact when viewed from a distance.

Manufactured from high quality, corrosion resistant material, the ZINTL aluminium cladding system won’t oxidise over time, so it’s a smart choice for all locations, conditions and environments.

ZINTL interlocking aluminium cladding system is offered in a wide range of Interpon and Dulux powder coat finishes—more than 250 colours to choose from, as well as a selection of anodised and wood grain architectural finishes, that will provide any property a beautifully refined aesthetic.

ZINTL aluminium cladding panels are 100 per cent recyclable, making them an excellent, environmentally friendly, and fully sustainable choice. What’s more, the ZINTL range is owned and made here in Australia, giving you even more peace of mind when deciding on your next façade.

Fully weatherproof

A key focus in the building industry today, weatherproofing refers to the process of making a building capable of withstanding the effects of weather. It is an essential aspect of any construction.

Proper weatherproofing helps avoid undue dampness and deterioration of building elements, as well as prevents unhealthy or dangerous conditions developing inside the building that could affect the well-being of its occupants.

Not only does weatherproof cladding minimise the chance of problems occurring once construction is finished, but it also keeps maintenance costs down in the long term. ZINTL is fully weatherproof.

HVG Facades says it is proudly leading the market in the testing of its second premium weatherproof cladding system—ZINTL.

A premium interlocking aluminium cladding system, ZINTL has passed all the compliance requirements of the NCC 2019 Weatherproofing Verification Methods V2.2.1 and FV1.
