Industries / Facade & Cladding
Facade and cladding fixings face wind load, thermal cycling, and constant weather exposure. Canco supplies stainless and coated fasteners specified for curtain wall, ACM, stone, and rainscreen systems.
THE FACADE SECTOR
The building envelope is only as reliable as its fixings. Curtain walls, insulated rainscreens, and stone or ACM panels all transfer wind and dead load through brackets, undercut anchors, and stainless screws that must resist corrosion and movement across decades of service.
Canco manufactures and supplies facade-grade fasteners to consultant specifications — including A2/A4 stainless, duplex, and protected carbon steel systems — with batch traceability and finishes aligned to your exposure zone and warranty requirements.

APPLICATION AREAS
Stick-built and unitised systems: pressure-plate screws, anchor bolts, and stainless hardware for mullions, transoms, and bracketry behind the glass line.
Rivets, self-drilling screws, and cassette clip fixings supplied to fabricator drawings for fire-classified and standard ACM assemblies.
Undercut anchors, Z-clips, and restraint ties for heavy panel façades with documented pull-out performance for engineer review.
Adjustable brackets, helping-hand fixings, and stainless fasteners for cavity drainage detailing and continuous insulation builds.
SPECIFICATION SUPPORT
Datasheets, coating certificates, and fastener declarations formatted for architect and structural engineer review — including project-specific marking where required.
Trial quantities for performance mock-ups and installer training so approvals proceed before main-scale production.
A2/A4 stainless, duplex, HDG, and speciality coatings selected for marine, urban, and coastal exposure — matched to your specification clauses.
Heat and batch traceability on request to support long-term warranty, forensic review, and handover documentation.
