December 4, 2024

All Weather Insulated Panels (AWIP) is furthering its collaboration with Vicwest with the launch of FASSADE with Bellara. Providing a versatile integrated solution for a wide range of single-skin metal panels, the FASSADE with Bellara assembly integrates with a variety of building designs, enhancing architectural appeal and making it a great choice for contemporary construction projects.

At the heart of AWIP’s new offering is the FW40 panel, which serves as an effective insulation and vapor barrier while allowing for flexible installation—both vertically and horizontally. Bellara Steel Siding products can be integrated into the system and can be easily attached using hat channels fastened through the tongue and groove joint.

“We're excited to offer this complete wall solution," said Brian Ng, AWIP Technical Director. "FASSADE offers outstanding performance by integrating thermal, water, air, and vapor protection into a single system. This all-in-one solution not only streamlines installation, but also offers long-term durability and effectiveness, making it an excellent option for a wide range of construction projects.”

FASSADE with Bellara Steel Siding is engineered to meet the rigorous thermal requirements for steel-framed walls, empowering architects and designers to realize their creative visions without compromise. The collaboration between AWIP and Vicwest ensures a high-quality product that adheres to industry standards. 

The launch was made possible through the dedicated efforts of AWIP’s product development technical team, whose expertise was instrumental in developing and rolling out this innovative solution.

Bellara Steel Siding emulates natural wood and captures the intricacies of all the grains and knots to lock in the wood's natural beauty. Available in various styles, including Plank, Board and Batten, and Lap Siding, Bellara Steel Siding is an ideal choice to enhance aesthetic appeal. This not only enhances an aesthetic appeal with its wood-grain finish, but also strengthens the assembly of air, water, and vapor barriers, all within a single component.

To learn more about the FASSADE assembly and its compatibility with Bellara products, visit AWIP’s website for comprehensive information and specifications.
