CONVEYOR BELTS for architecture

MARIANItech® conveyor belts are particularly appreciated in architecture where one wants to conceal without hiding, or to add aesthetic value with coverings of surprising architectural and design appeal.

Ideal as wire cloths for facades, they are manufactured according to the same process as conveyor belts for industry. They are used as exterior cladding for administrative and commercial buildings and, increasingly, for residential architecture.

Conveyor belts clad buildings like an external skin with aesthetic and decorative functions. They are ideal for customising any façade or surface, even large ones, both vertically and horizontally.

Applications of architectural conveyor belts

Wire cloth conveyor belts are perfect for making:

• curtain walls, as a light and continuous envelope that performs all the typical functions of an external wall, made of aluminium and stainless steel, with no additional load beyond their own weight and the buoyancy of the wind.
• ventilated façades, as the external cladding of perimeter walls with a heat-insulating layer and an air space subject to natural circulation.

They can also adapt to different shapes for the creation of:

• planar facades, by means of flat rectangular and shaped wire cloths, with vertical or horizontal geometries.
• curved façades, following both concave and convex curves
• multifaceted facades, with helical or faceted development of creative, multiform and articulated surfaces.

Advantages of conveyor belts for façade design

Conveyor belts for design and architecture have a number of advantages in use that make them the choice of many design studios.

The great versatility of these wire cloths is in fact an inexhaustible source of inspiration for architects and designers, who find innovative design solutions in them thanks to the constant stimuli provided by the different materials, aesthetic yields and technological innovation.

Among their benefits you can find:

• possibility of installation on new or existing buildings
• good light shielding even in the presence of a transparent cladding, decreasing the thermal load inside the building.
• adequate protection of the underlying façade from atmospheric agents
• maintenance-free, thanks to the self-cleaning action of natural rain and wind cycles
• special, dynamic and evocative effects, thanks to the alternation of light and shadow, sun and rain, day and night
• unlimited durability, resistance and 100% recyclability.
