Invisible Clamp System

This concealed fixing method delivers a clean, hardware-free façade finish for 12–20 mm porcelain tiles and slabs. Tiles are prepared with a 3–5 cm edge groove to receive stainless steel 316 clips, which anchor to an aluminum substructure for secure installation.Compatible with both vertical and horizontal layouts, the system works with pre-grooved tiles or those prepared on-site using a slotting machine. It ensures structural reliability while maintaining a minimalist appearance—ideal for modern ventilated façades using porcelain surfaces.

  •   Uses concealed stainless steel 316 clamps (1.5 mm thick) for a sleek, uninterrupted façade finish
  • Grooved-edge installation ensures secure mechanical fixing with no visible hardware
  • Compatible with both pre-slotted tiles and on-site edge grooving using a dedicated machine
  • Supports tile’s vertical and horizontal orientations for flexible design applications
  • Mounts to adjustable aluminum substructures using L-, T-, or custom-profile rails
  • Clip spacing and bracket layout are optimized based on wind load and structural requirements
  • Enables modular design and allows on-site cutting of tiles for non-standard dimensions
  • Maintains consistent 5 mm joints for visual uniformity and effective drainage
  • Accommodates thermal movement and resists pressure from dynamic loads

  • Durable and low maintenance, ideal for long-term exterior performance

Component Breakdown

  1. Aluminum Brackets: Support vertical loads and define cavity depth
  2. Vertical Profiles (T & L): Form the secondary substructure; carry clips and align tiles across the façade.
  3. Concealed Fixing Clamps: Stainless steel 316, 1.5 mm thick; lock into tile grooves for hidden mechanical anchoring.
  4. Mechanical Anchors: Fix the aluminum framework securely to concrete or masonry substrates.
  5. Self-Drilling Screws: Used for quick, reliable attachment of clamps and profiles—no pre-drilling needed.
  6. Thermal Breaks: Isolating pads between brackets and wall to reduce thermal bridging and prevent corrosion.
  7. Edge Grooving Tools: Available for on-site preparation of tile grooves when pre-slotted tiles aren’t used.
  8. Porcelain Panels: Compatible with 12–20 mm thick tiles or slabs; install vertically or horizontally.
