About
- NV93 is the Nvelope system for mechanical concealed / secret fix cladding applications.
- Secured using hangers and undercut, stud anchors or screws to provide a concealed rear fixing.
- Horizontal carrier profiles are fixed to our vertical NV9 omega top hat profiles. Rainscreen panels are hung from and secured to the NV3 horizontal profiles with adjustable hangers.
- Ideal for shallow cladding zones, with a fixed cavity zone of just 50mm.
- Nvelope rail and associated fixing spacing is determined by cladding options such as the dimensions and weight of the facade cladding, local wind loads, cladding zone, and substrate.
- This simplistic system does not allow for level and adjustment between the substrate and the front of the façade without the use of packing.
Applications
NV93 is suitable for concealed / secret fix cladding applications – mechanical elements fix to the following substrates:
- Fibre cement Panels
- Glass reinforced concrete (GRC)
- Ceramic
- Stone
- Stainless Steel
- High Pressure Laminate (HPL)
Features
- Manufactured from extruded aluminium alloys conforming to AS/NZS 1866:1997 (material) and EN 755 production standards.
- Non-Combustible to AS1530.1
- Suitable in high corrosive environments C4 and C5.
- Engineered to Australian Standards.

The selection of materials to use in the construction of a subframe system within a rainscreen façade is of paramount importance. Material choice can also affect the thermal performance of the overall rainscreen in addition to engineering assurance.
- Aluminium is inherently corrosion resistant however this can be complemented and further improved by additional treatment including anodising and powder coating.
- All NVELOPE systems only use the superior 6005 T5 alloy, which provides superior strength and performance over and above other commonly used aluminium.
