Nvelope NV1

Details

NV1 is the Nvelope back frame for vertical cladding applications.

Nvelope ‘T’ and ‘L’ profiles are fixed using Nvelope ‘helping hand’ support brackets, fixed through a series of pre-punched fixed and flexible point holes.

Nvelope sliding point brackets absorb wind loading and allow for expansion and contraction.

Nvelope fixed point brackets absorb vertical dead loads.

Nvelope bracket spacing is determined by cladding design options such as the dimensions and weight of the facade cladding, local wind loads, cladding zone and substrate.
