The NBK TERRART ceramic clay tile facade system, which is based on the rainscreen principle, is custom designed and engineered.
The vertical joints are backed by a support system which drains rainwater away from the cavity behind. The gaskets, together with balanced air pressure, discourages water from entering the wall cavity. The tile design allows for air to flow through “open joints”, which helps to balance air pressure in the cavity behind the terracotta cladding elements with that outside air, hence, the term – pressure equalization.
