ARIDON® SMART WALL system

ARIDON® SMART WALL system is a series of interlocking rigid panels that enclose the building frame in a weatherproof, thermal shell. It combines global best practice “continuous insulation” technology with scientifically proven weatherproofing performance.

The ARIDON® SMART WALL replaces multiple products, multiple layers and multiple trades with a single system.

The systems approach to building significantly reduces the risk of moisture related building failure while maximising thermal performance and overall quality.

The ARIDON® SMART WALL system forms a weatherproof thermal shell which acts as an intelligent control layer for the building – managing rain, air, vapour and heat movement to form “The Perfect Wall”. International building science has proven that moving the “control layers” to the outside of the frame is a far superior way to:

• Eliminate heat loss through the frame (thermal bridging)
• Provide superior long term energy efficiency (significant reduction in power bills)
• Stop internal moisture (condensation) and mould/mildew forming in your walls by keeping the frame warm and dry
• Stop external (rain) moisture ingress
• Provide a healthier internal environment

In Germany – external continuous insulation has been the traditional solution for insulating buildings since the first energy performance regulations were introduced in 1977. In the USA more buildings are constructed each year using continuous insulation than our entire housing stock in NZ.

KEY BENEFITS – THE ALL-IN-ONE SMART SOLUTION

• Superior Insulation performance vs any traditional system on the market (Equivalent performance to 140 Framing & R4 Batts) – ARIDON® wraps the building frame in a thermal shell and eliminates thermal bridging (heat loss through the framing). A recent study by BRANZ revealed the ARIDON® SMART WALL reduces heat loss through the walls by over 40%.
  Superior weather-proofing. The SMART WALL’s interlocking self-sealing joints & in-built drainage cavity acts as a moisture barrier, ensuring water that does penetrate the cladding will not infiltrate the wall framing cavity – reducing material degradation and extending the service life of the building.

 

• Eliminates the likelihood of condensation forming in your frame (sick building syndrome) – the SMART WALL keeps the frame warm and moves the dew point out of the wall frame zone preventing mould and mildew accumulation inside the wall.
  Healthier homes ensure the air we breathe is as free as possible from pollutants. The SMART WALL panels interlock together to provide a seamless insulating air barrier – reducing undesirable air flow and moderating internal temperature fluctuations.

 

• Design Flexibility: The ARIDON SMART WALL System is available in the all-in-one SMART WALL 80mm Ribbed system or the SMART WALL 60mm Flat/Flat + Structural Batten options. Suitable for timber, steel and masonry structures in both residential and commercial builds.

ARIDON SMART WALL PRODUCT SUITE:

You pick the system to suit your design requirements – the benefits remain the same! Suitable for new builds or re-clads.
