what is Argeton?

The visual impact of a timeless modern façade with the distinctive character of natural terracotta in a ventilating rainscreen. This was the specific inspiration for developing the ArGeTon® façade as a ventilated terracotta rainscreen since 1982.

ArGeTon® has held CWCT test certification for ten years from the internationally accredited Taywood Laboratories in the UK, and we maintain a continuing assessment policy with BBA. Whether in a new building or refurbishment, an ArGeTon® façade promotes tangible environmental benefits holding the Environmental Product Declaration in accordance with ISO14025 & EN 15804 being the European standardised equivalent of BREEAM. The vertical joint profile prevents lateral shifting of the tiles and penetration of driving rain and its compression prevents rattling of the tiles in windy conditions. The facade is regarded as having superior performance in a fire.

The tiles pass through a special calibration device during production to ensure excellent dimensional accuracy - vital to the precise joint grid, which is in turn essential for the overall impression of the façade.

ArGeTon® collaborate internationally with manufacturers of membranes, cavity fire barristers, insulation and aluminium to ensure compliance with international design codes to supplement the existing assessed design life of the system of 50-100 years.
