The CUPACLAD® 101 PARALLEL system offers an innovative style based on parallel lines, where its characteristic homogeneity enhances the texture of Cupa Pizarras slates.
Characteristics
CUPACLAD® 101 PARALLEL rainscreen cladding system is made up of 40x25 cm slates installed horizontally, aligned and with concealed screws. All CUPACLAD® 101 systems share the same invisible fasteners, especially conceived by our team of engineers. Two self-drilling, stainless steel screws, with large diameter flat heads, guarantee easy installation and a perfect end result.

Sustainability
CUPACLAD® systems enable the construction of efficient, sustainable rainscreen cladding. A life cycle analysis, which allows you to analyze the overall environmental impact of a product, confirms CUPACLAD® as the ecological option for facade cladding, thanks to the use of natural slate instead of prefabricated products.
Installation
CUPACLAD® reinvents the traditional technique for placing natural slate, offering greater simplicity and significant savings in installation times. The fixing systems used in CUPACLAD® systems are the result of a meticulous design process performed by our engineers and these were specially designed to ensure a quick, secure installation.
Efficiency
Now considered the most efficient system for construction envelope purposes. The combination of a ventilated system together with an insulation system gives numerous advantages in terms of thermal and acoustic properties. It avoids thermal bridges and condensation issues.
Quality
The quality of Cupa Pizarras product lies in their total control of the entire production process (from extraction to shipment) and by putting in place the highest quality and environmental policy requirements demanded by ISO 9001 Quality and ISO 14001 Environmental certifications.
