The British Board of Agrément has just awarded Novabrik with Certificate No 07/4421. This is for the dry-built brick cladding system designed for lowcost/ high energy efficiency housing developments.

Novabrik is the BBA Certificated and NHBC approved cladding system that comprises bricksized interlocking tiles which lock together to form a weatherproof, ventilated outer skin for timberframed, steel-framed or concrete panel structures. It is also suitable for use with conventional block-work walls or ICF (Insulated Concrete Formwork) systems.

The interlocking construction works as a cladding system with units overlapping, preventing water from penetrating the wall. The main benefits are speed of installation and the fact that no wet trades are needed, meaning that installation can continue in virtually all weather conditions. Novabrik is suitable for new-build as well as refurbishment projects. Savings in installation times of up to 50% have been experienced, resulting in earlier occupancy and overall reductions in contract duration.
