Fairview increases inventory of 3mm(1/8”) Vitraplate® pre-finished Solid Aluminum Plate material due to market demands

Apr 25, 2023Blogs, Featured, Vitrabond, Vitraplate

Over the last 12-18 months we have seen an increased interest from the construction market in the use of non-combustible exterior cladding solutions such as 3mm(1/8”) pre-finished solid aluminum panel, Vitraplate. These materials, already used widely around the world, are becoming increasingly sought after by all areas of the industry from designers and specifiers to general contractors and fabricators. To meet this growing demand, Fairview has increased the amount of Vitraplate inventory that it holds in its US-based warehouse.

 

Vitraplate has been available in the US since 2017 but it is only recently with the building codes changing in some States that the need for a non-combustible solution on a construction project is sometimes needed. These materials can easily replace traditional aluminum composite panels where a fully non-combustible solution is required. They can also be used in collaboration with other metal cladding products which can help building owners get the most optimized solution for their budget.

 

We currently have 12 finishes in stock of Vitraplate in our Connecticut warehouse. These “Quick Ship” materials can be shipped within 2-5 days of order receipt. The finishes, chosen for their popularity in the market to date are shown below. We will continue to add finishes to our inventory as demand for these materials increases. Keep an eye on our blog posts for future updates.
