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 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.

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.
