Ensuring Top-Level Compliance with Premium Façade Solutions

In the Australian construction industry, compliance is non-negotiable. Building regulations and standards are in place to safeguard occupants, protect property, and ensure the long-term sustainability of structures. HVG Facades is a trusted partner for architects, builders, and developers, offering a wide range of building material compliance solutions that adhere to the strictest of these regulations. Our commitment to quality and safety means you can confidently build knowing your project meets and exceeds all necessary requirements.

Building Material Compliance

Building material compliance goes beyond simply meeting minimum requirements. It’s about ensuring that every building element, from the foundation to the façade, is safe, durable, and fit for purpose.

HVG Facades is also proudly leading the market in testing the premium weatherproof cladding system ZINTL® and solid aluminium panels MondoClad®. The premium interlocking aluminium cladding system and solid aluminium panels have passed all the compliance requirements of the NCC 2021 Weatherproofing Verification Methods V2.2.1 and FV1.

Façade Compliance Standards in Australia

Understanding and adhering to façade compliance standards in Australia is vital for any construction project. Two of the most critical standards are:

AS 1530.1 (Combustibility): This standard sets the requirements for the fire testing of building materials. HVG Facades offers a range of non-combustible cladding solutions, such as MondoClad®, that meet the requirements of AS 1530.1.
AS 1530.3 (Spread of Flame): This standard assesses how quickly a fire can spread across the surface of a material. Our cladding systems are designed to limit the spread of flame, providing an added layer of safety for your building.

Construction Compliance Regulations

The Australian construction industry is governed by a complex construction compliance regulation framework that spans local, state, and federal levels. These regulations ensure buildings’ safety, quality, and sustainability, focusing strongly on façade safety standards. HVG Facades understands the challenges this landscape presents for builders and developers. Our team of experts is dedicated to providing guidance and support, ensuring your projects meet all requirements.

At HVG Facades, we are committed to keeping abreast of the latest regulatory changes and ensuring that our products, including a range of non-combustible aluminium cladding options, align with the strictest standards. We work closely with architects and specifiers to navigate the complexities of façade compliance standards in Australia, offering tailored solutions that meet each project’s specific needs, streamlining the approvals process and ensuring a smooth build.

Façade Safety Standards

Façade safety is paramount in modern construction. HVG Facades prioritises this aspect through rigorous testing and quality control of our materials. Our commitment to safety is reflected in our range of non-combustible external cladding systems, specifically designed to withstand the harsh Australian climate and meet the stringent fire safety requirements of the National Construction Code (NCC). We offer a variety of materials, including fibre cement cladding and timber-look aluminium cladding, to cater to diverse aesthetic preferences while upholding the highest safety standards.
