Best Exterior and Interior Wall Decoration Material – Faux Brick Veneer

Faux brick veneer also called artificial cultured brick, or manufactured stone cladding. It has many characteristics such as light weight, rich color & shapes and easy to imitate other building material’s finishes. Faux brick veneer was born in America at the end of last century fifty’s and now it has been a main stream of exterior building material in the world.

However, as interior wall decoration material, faux brick veneer is more welcome to use as exterior wall brick veneer. Architects are tent to use this kind of brick tile because it has wider ranging and flexible application. Faux can be applied on the wall, floor and backdrop wall. This kind of building material is not only can apply by large area & large proportion to create the overall atmosphere of interior design, but also can be used in specific area for a special embellishment or emphasis purpose. For example, backdrop wall, fireplace, balcony, stairs and wine cellar. What’s more, if fake brick wall is mutual collocation with the furniture, soft decoration, lighting etc., it can present you the post-modern, new classics, concise decorative styles or any others which pursued by the architects.

Take LOPO’s an artificial brick veneer project for example, the designers apply LOPO faux brick (Item: LPZ-W02) on both the interior and exterior wall of a cafeteria. The designers use the classical red wall brick, which filled with time charm, to be the fundamental key of the whole shop. Together with the interior other design, the red artificial brick facade not only shows the atmosphere of literature and art restoration, but also elegant and fresh.

As you may know, LOPO China is one of the most professional and pioneering manufacturers of terracotta products (including terracotta panel, terracotta baguette and louver, terracotta wall tile, terracotta brick paver, artificial cultured stone etc.) in China. LOPO China has its own R&D team, now LOPO has develops 10 series, exceed 1000 items of faux brick design. Except that, LOPO can produce the artificial brick products with special sizes, finishes and colors customized by designers. LOPO artificial stone is mainly produced by high quality haycite, white cement and imported pigment, which ensures faux brick’ characteristic favored by the architects around the world, such as corrosion resisting, non-deformation and fadeless.

Few Features About Terracotta Louver Sunscreen System

If the terracotta louver sunscreen system is engineered according to the latitude of the project, the analysis of the site location, the local climate, the project orientation, and the effect obtained by the curtain wall sunscreen system during different periods over the year depending on the building's use, then the beneficial effects will be guaranteed. What is more, the aesthetic advantage of a sunscreen system is appreciated both from inside and outside the building.

What is the advantages of terracotta sunscreen?

1. Using a sunscreen louver causes in a limited temperature increasing inside the building and a reducing of the use of air-conditioning. An external screen is indeed a more effective instrument of solar control compared to an internal screen, as solar radiation is, during summer months, intercepted prior to reaching the glass surfaces, avoiding the greenhouse effect and the ensuing overheating of the environments. On the contrary, Internal screens can allow the light to pass through the glass, requiring finally the removal of the heat accumulated inside the building by means of mechanical ventilation or air-conditioning.

2. Sunscreens protect objects located close to the windows against harmful ultraviolet rays and persons against glare.

3. In summer, the luminosity is concentrated and fierce without a terracotta sunscreen. Without a terracotta louver sunscreen the glazed unit trasmits almost all the solar energy inside, overheating the interior. Sunscreens filter and diffuse the light towards the interior of the building. Most of the energy carried by solar rays is stopped by the sunscreen.

4. While in winter, without a sunscreen the glazed unit trasmits most of the solar energy inside.

The key parameter to define the quality of the light in domestic or working surroundings is the determination of the daylight factor. During engineering, the natural light quantity and the illumination in the project environment level need to be established through specific analysis. LOPO Terracotta louver sunscreen system allows regulating the light flow transmitted by the open spaces, which making the premises more comfortable for those using them.

Using terracotta wall sunscreen can reduce heat dispersions from the openings during winter and limits the "cooling" effect caused by wind action. At the same time, sunscreen system allows sunrays to reach the interior of a building during the day, which will create a natural heating if engineered correctly.

Categories Of Rainscreen Cladding

Rainscreens can basically be classified into two categories, that is simple rainscreens and pressure-equalized rainscreens.

Simple rainscreens is generally sufficient for areas experiencing low rainfall. A simple rainscreen cladding is vented, while the support wall which covered with a waterproof material is airtight. The base of the wall often has a drain. One of the typical example of this kind of rainscreen would be a brick masonry finish above a concrete wall.

The second categories, pressure-equalized rainscreen’s structures is more advanced and was best protected Structures in areas that experience heavy rainfalls. The vents within the cladding enable the air contained in the cavity to bang against the layer of air barrier of the support wall as a rainstorm hits the building. the moisture is prevented from entering the structure because of the balancing of the outer and the inner pressure.

However, this balancing of two pressures works better in theory than in practice. But it helps a lot to compartmentalize the cavity. To further prevent the rainwater from piercing through the cladding, the sizing of joints delivers excellent results. For getting the best results, it is very important to employ quality sealants, and also drainage layers over the support walls to ensure that the pressure balancing wall facade system works efficiently.

It is quite essential to provide buildings with rainscreen cladding, which help keeping the exterior wall cladding strong for a long time, and also save the nuisance of frequent repairs of the building. Since rainscreen system can prevent the decay of a building due to moisture, they also help making the building a safer place to live and work.

Terracotta Facade Panel Is A Good Choice for Building Decoration

Terracotta facade panel manufactured from LOPO China are made from 100% unpolluted neat and clean terracotta clay material, which is extruded to get the desired shape and dried in especially made kilns, working at 1200℃ high temperatures. The finished product is very hard, strong with a soft surface.

Curtain wall panels made from natural clay may be utilized for the purpose of decorating exteriors of different buildings, including university, hospital, hotel, theaters, venues and dwellings etc. They can also additionally be employed for decorating the interiors of buildings like exhibition halls and public buildings.

Terracotta clay is derived from naturally occurring materials. The process employed for making terracotta clay tiles has slight negative effects on the environment. Naturally, people who usually would like to using this kind of items made from terracotta when they concerned about environmental issues would. Although it is not a good conductor of heat, it helps keeping the building cool, despite being exposed to direct sunlight. That will eventually help bring down the utility expenses, as the building won't require the same level of cooling as any traditional building.

The maintenance cost of terracotta wall cladding panels is actually very low, as harsh sunlight and rain don't affect it. This is the ideal choice for places experiencing excessive weather conditions. What’s more, it offers protection to the structure of the building, as it can't come in direct contact with water. This helps reducing the frequency of repairs.

The installation of wall cladding terracotta panel is also very easy, requiring no special skills for putting terracotta panels in the desired position, which helps saving with the cost of construction. Terracotta clay panels can be a good insulator of sound and make the interiors of building quite calm and peaceful. You can get them in many stunning colors, thus allowing you to give attractive looks to your building.

LOPO Terracotta Wall Cladding Panel Project: Mao Zedong Memorial Hall

Project Name: Hunan Mao Zedong Memorial Hall
LOPO Product: Terracotta Facade Panel F501801
Total QTY: 3200 SQM

 The Mao Zedong Memorial Park is located on the hillside opposite to and about 500 meters away from Mao Zedong’s Former Residence in Shaoshan Village, Xiangtan City, Hunan Province. The memorial Park primarily presents the revolutionary resort and memorial facilities where Mao Zedong and his comrades ever fought and worked, and is one of the import building groups in commemoration of Mao Zedong in China.

In this project, LOPO participated in the finishing and decoration of the interior walls of the Mao Zedong Memorial Hall in the Mao Zedong Memorial Park. The walls of the Memorial Hall are made of beige Terracotta Facade Panels, and the color and luster of the plates are gentle, simple and elegant, ideal for a place like the Memorial Hall that requires tranquil and peaceful atmosphere.

 One of the highlights of the interior decoration is the micro-carving on the terracotta panels. A sunflower pattern is micro-carved into eight terracotta panels, with different depths in the terracotta panel surface. The natural difference in the color and luster between the original surface and the carved surface of the terracotta panels make the entire pattern show a three-dimensional effect with sketch-like outline, being harmonious with the style of the entire Memorial Hall While also adding vivid touch to the originally insipid walls.

As an environment-friendly curtain wall material, terracotta panel is suitable to be used in both external walls and interior decoration. Functionally, terracotta panel can provide good sound proof and thermal insulation effect. The color of terracotta panel is formed naturally when natural clay is fired at high temperature, and the color and luster are natural, warm and fadeless. Different visual effects will appear when the patterns are under either natural light or indoor lighting. Meanwhile, by micro-carving on the terracotta panel, in combination with sculpturing, coloring and jointing, different patterns can be generated on the interior wall, which provides ample options for interior decoration.
