The fischer façade systems provide a fixing solution for nearly any cladding material. The visible fixing of façade panels such as fiber cement or HPL is done with rivets or screws. Clamp solutions for ceramics and terracotta can be realised both visibly and concealed. Special fixing profiles are available for concealed fixing of metal cassettes. The fischer undercut anchors for the concealed fixing of facade panels on the rear side ensure an interlocking and stress-free fixing in the conical undercuted drill hole. The undercut anchor system is completed by the well-engineered and compatible drilling and installation technology as well as additional accessories. Thanks to its broad range of undercut anchors, fischer is able to attach almost any type of cladding material to the façade. It is therefore possible to use façade panels made out of natural stone from a thickness of 20 mm, single-pane and laminated safety glass from a glass thickness of 8 mm, as well as ceramic tiles, fibre cement and HPL plates from a thickness of 8 mm.
Individual panels or even all panels can subsequently be exchanged with ease through the use of hook-on profiles. Even reveal panels can be fastened easily and with a high degree of flexibility. The varied panel thicknesses can be compensated through the use of stand-off anchor types. This method also allows the realisation of an element façade as well as factory prefabrication.
The long-established technology of the fischer undercut anchors enables the bending stress of the panel to be reduced by up to 50 per cent compared to standard edge fixings (mandrel, kerf cut and/or plug mandrel fixings or bracket solutions) through the statically adjustable position of the anchor in the 1/5 point on the reverse of the panel. This achieves lower slab bending moments and higher load-bearing capacities and allows more freedom during planning and execution, while better use can be made of the respective technical material properties.
The optimised static system and increased breakout forces allow larger-sized panels of the same thickness to be used in comparison to edge fastenings. Thinner and therefore lighter panels can also be used, which are economical to purchase and transport, thereby making installation easier.
The fischer façade systems business unit works in close proximity to markets and customers, subsidiaries and local partners across the globe. fischer façade systems and BWM façade systems offer compatible solutions and all-in-one systems for a market segment of the future.
