Perforated Façades and Cladding


made of CELLON® Panels
Version 1.0

General Information
Individual panel segmentation within the following design sizes:

Our CELLON®-panel is a Compact High-Pressure Laminate Panel (HPL) consisting of 70% cellulose
sheets and 30% phenolic resin. The weather-resistant material is ideally suited for external applications
such as perforated façades.
The unprocessed boards are manufactured exactly as required for each individual project using laser
technology. The panels are thus pre-cut to the exact dimensions (incl. drill holes) and with the desired
perforations for the specific site. The panels are coated after cutting. Depending on the perforation and
the distance between the fixing points, 8 or 10 mm thick panels are used.

The Advantages at a Glance
The unlimited selection of perforation patterns and colours provide a large variety of design
options, this way the degree of transparency can be selected freely
Precise laser cut allowing for free contour and soft edges according to the submitted CAD data
Over 100 perforation available from Bruag
Option of custom patterns according to your CAD template at no additional cost
Perforations can run smoothly across multiple panels
Wide choice of colours (coating according to NCS S Edition 2, RAL, Bruag Alu or IGP)
Special colours on request
Moisture-resistant, frost-proof, termite-proof
Colours have excellent lightfastness
Light weight (9kg/m2 for CELLON® 8 mm with approx. 30% open area)
Extremely low shrinkage and swelling
Ready-to-install product including drill holes and cut-outs
Post-processing on site possible (holes and cut-outs)
Simple installation
Billing of net size only (no wastage)
FSC certified

Important note on the storage/sorting of CELLON®


CELLON® façade panels must never be stored outside in unprotected flat/horizontal
position during sorting. Coating damage may occur, if water remains on the panels while they
are in a horizontal position*! Please store upright in a protected location and always place the
supplied, dry PU-foam foils between the individ al panels. Should the intermediate foil get wet,
please use new foil.
*Rainwater passes through the coating of the CELLON® panel and cannot penetrate the panel further.
This may lead to softening of the coating. This is not the case for vertically mounted panels since
the water drains off.

Information on Data Submission for Orders


When ordering Bruag CELLON® façade panels, please note the following:
The following file formats can be submitted:
DWG / DXF files
Cadwork 2D or 3D files
Information and Structure
Bruag panels must be drawn on a separate layer
1:1 scale drawing
Dimension of at least one longitudinal and transverse edge to enable verification of scale
Drill holes (drawn as closed circle), cut-outs etc. are drawn as required
Placeholders/markers for areas that are to be perforated and for which we should draw the
corresponding perforation for you.
Custom Patterns
The following specifications must be observed for custom patterns:
Pattern must be created as CAD drawing (DWG or DXF file)
The contours must be drawn as a line
All contours must be closed cleanly
Scale must be clearly evident
Additional expenses incurred through subsequent processing by Bruag AG will be charged.

The diameter of the drill holes is usually 8 mm (fastener + min. 2 mm). The panels are fixed
by means of “self-tapping façade screws with hexagonal head and washer”, diameter 4.8 mm,
supplied by Bruag.
Alternatively, rivets may be used. These must be provided by the contractor and must comply
with the applicable requirements. Coating by Bruag AG is possible.
If fixing points lie within the perforation, the pattern may need to be adjusted slightly.
COUNTERSUNK SCREWS MUST NOT BE USED!

Sub-Frame
Sub-frames are usually made in wood or metal/aluminium. In addition to conventional square
tubes, angled or omega section are also suitable in metal constructions. If you do not want the
sub-frame to be visible, you can also use fixings with spacers. However, these are significantly
more complex in assembly and design. The sub-frame must be attached to the brickwork in
accordance with the specifications of the building and must be adapted to the load capacity of the
CELLON® panels.
For wooden sub-frames, we recommend using EPDM sealing tape between the sub-frame and
the panels. The panels are attached directly to the sub-frame for metal or aluminium sub-frames.
Corner details may be designed as butt joint.

Detail Corner Design

Corner details may always be designed as butt joint.


Allow approx. 6 - 8 mm for the joint.
Alternatively, standard corner profiles may be used.

Detail

In case of guarding in front of floor-to-ceiling windows, it is essential to design a


circumferential frame. This can be done using L-section or square tube. When using
L-section, allow at least 5 mm gap on all sides.
