For a warm, natural finish that never goes out of style, timber exterior cladding is a solid choice.
For a bold, low-maintenance finish, metal and steel facade panels deliver both looks and performance.
A five-storey office building (3,500m² façade) in Melbourne’s CBD required the removal of combustible cladding and installation of a new fire-rated, compliant external façade system. The goal was to enhance safety, thermal insulation, and appearance.
Key Scope Items:
✔ Removal of outdated aluminium composite panels (ACP)
✔ Supply and install of non-combustible, weatherproof cladding
✔ Compliance with NCC, AS 4284, and AS 1530.1
✔ Improved thermal insulation and modernised exterior
✔ Seamless facade integration with existing structural elements
The project brief called for a complete upgrade that delivered on performance, compliance, and design.
Hybrid cladding system combining lightweight metal and compressed fiber cement panels, supported by a ventilated aluminium subframe with insulation backing was installed. Every component was tested and certified for commercial-grade durability.
System Components:
✔ 9mm Compressed Fiber Cement Panels (AS 2908.2) – fire-rated and robust
✔ 3mm Powder-Coated Aluminium Panels (AS 1530.1) – low-maintenance and sleek
✔ 50mm XPS Insulation Boards (R-value 2.5) – thermal performance boost
✔ Ventilated cavity with thermal breaks – reduces heat transfer
✔ UV-resistant flashings and sealants – prevents moisture ingress
The installation was clean, fast, and completed with full structural and safety checks.
The site was flagged during a Victorian Cladding Taskforce audit. Existing ACP had to be replaced with fully compliant materials, while also meeting acoustic, thermal, and design requirements for a high-traffic commercial area.
Challenges We Solved:
✔ Achieved NCC and AS 1530.1 compliance with non-combustible materials
✔ Met BAL-40 fire rating for risk reduction in dense urban zones
✔ Boosted acoustic rating to Rw 45 dB for traffic noise control
✔ Integrated the new system with glass curtain walls and structural framing
✔ Maintained full building access and operation throughout the 10-week installation
The result? A compliant, energy-efficient facade that looks sharp and performs under pressure.

We had a warehouse refit that needed compliant external wall cladding, and these guys delivered. I appreciated how smooth the process was clear updates, no downtime, and the finish looked sharp. They knew the NCC requirements inside out and worked around our schedule without holding up the other trades.
The job was a mixed-use development with fibre cement panels and aluminium cladding. What stood out for me was the communication. I always knew what stage they were at, and they explained the fire rating compliance clearly. The team worked fast, stayed tidy, and the results speak for themselves.
We needed new facade cladding across a commercial office block and didn’t have much wriggle room with the timing. I was impressed everything was handled without shortcuts. From waterproofing to panel install, the attention to detail was solid. You could tell they’d done this kind of job before.
I run a fitout company and have worked with plenty of contractors not all of them this reliable. We used them for steel facade panels on a retail build. Install was clean, done to code, and finished ahead of time. Can’t fault the quality or the way they handled the site.
The site had some challenges tight access and mixed surfaces but nothing was a hassle for them. I appreciated how flexible they were with changes, and they still hit the deadline. The external cladding panels they recommended were cost-effective, weather-resistant, and looked great once installed. Would absolutely work with them again.
