Signa Brick Cladding System

Signa Brick Cladding System

Signa Brick cladding system is an innovative architectural facade solution that revolutionizes traditional brick application methods by combining the aesthetic appeal of handformed brick with modern installation efficiency. This sophisticated system consists of precisely cut brick slips mounted onto weather-resistant stone panels, enabling architects to create distinctive facade patterns and three-dimensional effects that transcend conventional bricklaying constraints. The system's core innovation lies in its factory-controlled production process, where durable brick slips are permanently bonded to dimensionally stable carrier plates using specialized weather-resistant adhesives, ensuring long-term structural integrity and performance. Distinguished by its versatility, the system accommodates various brick sizes, including standard dimensions of 190x9x5mm to 210x10x6.5mm, and can be installed on multiple substrate types including aluminum and wooden structures. The system's technical excellence and creative potential were recognized with a Gold A' Design Award in the Building Materials and Construction Components Design category, highlighting its significant contribution to architectural innovation. The system's development, completed in 2013, addressed crucial industry challenges by combining weatherproofing capabilities with unprecedented design flexibility, allowing for vertical, horizontal, or diagonal patterns that would be impractical or impossible with traditional bricklaying methods. This revolutionary approach to facade cladding not only streamlines installation processes but also enables architects to implement their creative vision with greater precision and artistic freedom, while maintaining the authentic character and durability of traditional brickwork.
