Ventilated Façades
Ventilated Façade Systems in Porcelain
A Complete, Turnkey Façade Solution
ICG Italia delivers fully engineered façade systems—backed by experience, certification, and in‑house expertise.
Combining large‑format porcelain slabs, certified aluminum substructures, and the expertise of our specialized internal technical team, we deliver a system that performs, endures, and elevates architectural intent.
Certified, Proprietary Façade Systems
ICG Italia offers seven proprietary ventilated façade systems, engineered to accommodate a wide range of architectural, structural, and aesthetic requirements.
System Highlights
- Designed specifically for use with our porcelain surfaces
- Select systems tested and certified, including NFPA 285 compliance
- Backed by a 10‑year system warranty
- Constructed with AL6060 aluminum, powder‑coated for durability and corrosion resistance
Because the structural system and the porcelain panels are integrated, compatibility and long‑term reliability are assured.

Façade System Performance Benefits
ICG Italia ventilated façade systems actively contribute to building performance by combining porcelain cladding with a continuous ventilated cavity and insulation layer.
Thermal Regulation
Thermal Regulation
Reduces heat gain in summer and heat loss in winter
Moisture Management
Moisture Management
Prevents condensation and promotes drying of the wall assembly
Envelope Protection

Preserves insulation efficiency and structural integrity over time
Energy Efficiency
Energy Efficiency
Supports reduced HVAC loads and operational demand
Fire Safety & Compliance
Porcelain slabs meet critical safety requirements for exterior wall applications:
- Non‑combustible material
- NFPA 285 tested and certified systems
- Dimensionally stable under elevated temperatures
- Does not contribute to flame spread or smoke development
These characteristics support safe façade design for mid‑ and high‑rise construction.
Sustainability & Long-Term Value
Ventilated façade systems contribute to sustainable building strategies through durability, performance, and reduced lifecycle impact.
- Long service life minimizes replacement cycles
- Inert, stable porcelain materials
- Improved energy efficiency through façade performance
- Reduced maintenance and material waste over time
These qualities support both environmental goals and long‑term operational efficiency.
Specialized Internal Technical Team
Our value is grounded in more than products—it’s rooted in people.
With more than 26 years of global experience in rainscreen and ventilated façade systems, our specialized internal team brings deep technical expertise in façade engineering and installation, supports ongoing system development and refinement, and provides reliable project guidance from early design through execution, ensuring consistent support at every stage of the process.
Continually Evolving. Intentionally Engineered.
Our ventilated façade systems are continuously evolving through ongoing research and product development—ensuring they respond to changing performance demands, regulations, and architectural needs.
As part of our synergistic innovations, our ventilated façade systems can work in harmony, or indepently, within a growing ecosystem to enhance functional performance and deliver smarter, more integrated architectural solutions.
