Ventilated facade panels are a smart way to make a building more efficient. NBK Terracotta Facade Panels, from Hunter Douglas, not only bring a new design element to the exterior; they act as a rain screen, moving water away from the building envelope, creating a chimney effect that also keeps the building dry and reduces the structure’s thermal load. They’re available in a wide variety of finishes, colors, and textures.
