Favemanc Ventilated Facades

Terracotta façades combine natural materiality with longevity, colour stability, and architectural character. However, achieving a successful terracotta façade depends on far more than the choice of tile or panel alone.

At TI Dynamic Facades, terracotta is delivered as a coordinated façade solution — integrating panel format, fixing strategy, and support structure to ensure performance, compliance, and buildability from concept through to completion.

The Terracotta Façade System

Our terracotta façade solution utilises architectural terracotta panels, available as standard flat formats or custom bespoke shapes, allowing both efficiency and creative freedom within ventilated rainscreen constructions.

Standard flat panels provide a clean, repeatable solution suited to a wide range of projects, while bespoke terracotta shapes enable architects to achieve curved elements, fins, feature profiles, and project-specific geometries. In both cases, we work with project teams to integrate terracotta into a complete façade strategy — ensuring fixing methods, restraint, and subframe coordination are aligned with the architectural intent.

Specials

Immerse yourself in the realm of architectural possibilities with our bespoke terracotta cladding solutions. Far from ordinary, our custom-made panels push the boundaries of traditional design, enabling you to create structures that are as unique as your vision.

Custom shaped panels and colours are available; these are best discussed at an early design stage with the architect to provide a solution to the shape(s) they are trying to achieve.

Our panels breathe life into your architectural designs, achieving a sense of depth and creating an illusion of three-dimensionality that is simply unparalleled. The unique geometric patterns, the bold curves, the striking angles – every shape you envision, we can materialise.

Fixing Strategy & System Integration

Terracotta panels are secured using a product-specific fixing system developed to provide reliable restraint while maintaining clean façade aesthetics.

*Panel size, geometry, restraint strategy, and fixing configuration are subject to project-specific engineering assessment.*

Clip Fixing System — TI-DF7
TI-DF7 is a dedicated terracotta panel fixing system designed to secure panels in both landscape and portrait orientations. Fixing clips attach back to the TI-DF1 subframe system (or an equivalent vertical support frame) and retain panels at the four corners, with additional central restraint introduced where required to suit panel size, geometry, and project-specific wind load conditions.

Façade Strategy & Early Design Support

Terracotta façades—particularly bespoke or shaped elements—benefit from early technical input to manage panel geometry, restraint requirements, and wind loading considerations. We support projects from the outset by helping define panel format and geometry (flat or bespoke), panel orientation (landscape or portrait), fixing and restraint strategy, subframe layout and interface coordination, and indicative guidance to support design development. Early engagement helps ensure both standard and bespoke terracotta façades remain buildable, compliant, and visually consistent as the design progresses.

Design Flexibility & Applications

Terracotta offers strong design flexibility, especially where bespoke forms are introduced. The system supports flat panels for clean, rhythmic façades, bespoke shapes including fins, curved elements, and feature profiles, and both vertical and horizontal panel layouts. It is well suited to feature elevations, architectural accents, and integration with adjacent façade materials. We work closely with architects to balance creative ambition with technical performance and installation practicality.

Delivery, Compliance & Ongoing Support

Whether standard or bespoke, terracotta façades require careful coordination across design, engineering, fabrication, and installation. We work with specialist partners to validate fixing strategies for wind loads and panel geometry, confirm bespoke shapes are technically feasible and installable, coordinate interfaces with insulation, membranes, and adjacent systems, and ensure installation methodology is clear and achievable on site. Our involvement continues through construction, providing technical guidance and support to ensure the façade is delivered as designed.

Let’s Define the Right Terracotta Façade Solution

If you’re considering a terracotta façade — standard or bespoke — speak with us early. We’ll help align panel format, fixing strategy, and performance requirements to ensure the solution is right before it reaches site.
