In the current building environment, recladding has quickly become a necessity for compliance and insurance purposes. More and more, local authorities are demanding that non-compliant cladding materials are replaced with a non-combustible façade to meet the stringent Australian Standard, AS1530.1. Our solid aluminium cladding offers a reliable path to meeting these crucial requirements.
In addition, recladding doesn’t just offer enhanced safety and peace of mind, it also delivers a range of other benefits.
The Benefits of Recladding with Solid Aluminium Cladding
With ever-increasing energy prices and a continued focus on sustainability, there’s a growing demand for more thermally efficient construction systems. Recladding provides the opportunity to implement these practices with modernised fixing systems and materials. Choosing solid aluminium cladding can contribute to these efficiencies.
Recladding also allows for an opportunity to refresh a building with a more modern and contemporary look, integrate it with its environment, and re-energise the overall ambience of the surrounding area. A retrofit can even improve a building, by giving it a longer-lasting, more robust finish.
Consider a revitalised, reclad building, like 717 Bourke Street. This demonstrates how retrofitting with materials such as solid aluminium cladding can make a building more aesthetically appealing and add value for an upcoming lease or sale.
Perhaps best of all, recladding can be achieved with very little disruption to the building’s operation and its occupants.

FAQs
Recladding is often necessary due to aging materials, updated safety regulations (like AS1530.1), and for insurance compliance.
AS1530.1 is a crucial Australian Standard for non-combustibility. It dictates that certain recladding materials, like solid aluminium cladding, must be non-combustible to ensure fire safety.
Beyond safety, recladding offers opportunities for improved thermal efficiency, refreshed aesthetics, enhanced building value, and minimal disruption during the process.
Recladding allows for the integration of modern, more thermally efficient fixing systems and materials, which can lead to better insulation and reduced energy consumption.
Yes, recladding provides a significant opportunity to update an older building’s appearance with a modern and contemporary look, enhancing its overall ambience.
The recladding process involves replacing existing cladding. We design our recladding solutions to minimise disruption to a building’s operations and occupants.
Aesthetically appealing and compliant recladded buildings, especially those using solid aluminium cladding, can attract new tenants or buyers, thereby adding significant value to the property.
