Siding & Wall Panels

SCROLL TO EXPLORE

Our wall panel work has been the flagship of EDA’s overall growth.

With the introduction to the U.S. of the “rainscreen” concept, and new energy codes spurred by building science and technology, EDA has positioned itself as a leader in the installation of opaque wall panels and surfaces.

Siding & Wall Panels

Insulated Panels

Insulated metal panels (IMPs) are prefabricated building materials that consist of two metal skins sandwiching a foam core. They are used as a building envelope system for walls and roofs in commercial, industrial, and mixed use construction. IMPs offer a high level of thermal efficiency, as well as acoustic and fire resistance properties. They are also lightweight, easy to install, and can be designed to meet a variety of aesthetic requirements.

ACM Panel

ACM panels (Aluminum Composite Material/Metal) are lightweight, durable building materials made of two thin aluminum sheets bonded to a core, typically plastic (polyethylene) or fire-resistant mineral, creating a rigid, weather-resistant, and versatile panel used for architectural cladding design due to their flat surface, vibrant colors, and ability to be shaped.

Plate Panels

Plate panels are solid, single-sheet metal panels—typically aluminum, though sometimes stainless steel or zinc—used for durable, high-end architectural façades, cladding, and commercial wall systems. They offer superior strength, fire resistance, and a "dead flat" appearance.

Louvers

Architectural louvers are used to provide ventilation, solar control, and visual screening while maintaining airflow and code compliance. Available in fixed or operable configurations, louver systems can be integrated into façades, mechanical enclosures, and parking structures, offering both functional performance and architectural expression.

UHPC

Ultra-High Performance Concrete is a high-strength, fiber-reinforced material that allows for thin, lightweight panels with exceptional durability. UHPC rainscreen systems support large-format panels, crisp detailing, and complex geometries, making them ideal for high-performance façades where longevity and refined aesthetics are critical.

Screenwalls

Louvered and Perforated Aluminum screenwall systems utilize louvers or perforated panels to provide airflow, shading, and privacy while concealing mechanical equipment or structured parking. These systems are highly customizable in pattern, finish, and panel size, allowing designers to balance performance requirements with visual transparency.

Fiber Cement

High-density fiber cement panels are durable, non-combustible cladding materials designed for ventilated rainscreen assemblies. Known for color-through finishes and a clean, contemporary appearance, fiber cement panels offer excellent weather resistance and long-term performance in commercial and institutional applications.

GFRC

Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) can be installed in either a concealed or an exposed fastening mold. GFRC is often sprayed into custom molds and provides architects and designers limitless possibilities for custom textures and shapes in large format sizes. Monumental GFRC 3D shapes are often supported from galvanized steel frames. GFRC can be installed as a rainscreen system in lieu of a barrier precast system.

Phenolic

Phenolic or High Pressure Laminate (HPL) cladding is made of compressed fibers and finished in a variety of solid colors, light-diffusing finishes to natural wood grain finishes. Panels are available up to 6ft x 13ft sheets with panel thicknesses of 8mm for exposed fastening systems and 10mm for concealed fastening systems. When installed as a rainscreen, open joints allow for a drained and back-ventilated cavity.

Porcelain Panels

Porcelain Panels are dense, non-porous cladding materials manufactured for exterior rainscreen applications. Porcelain panels offer exceptional resistance to moisture, UV exposure, staining, and freeze-thaw conditions, while providing a sleek, modern aesthetic in a wide range of colors, textures, and large-format sizes.

Stone Panels

Natural stone facades are lightweight thin stone offered in a sintered reinforced backing, or mounted on an aluminum honeycomb panel to reduce weight while maintaining the appearance of solid stone. These systems allow for larger panel sizes, improved structural performance, and efficient installation, making natural stone a viable option for modern ventilated façade systems.

Terracotta

Terracotta is a natural clay-based material fired at high temperatures to create durable façade elements for ventilated rainscreen systems. Terracotta panels and baguettes provide warm, timeless aesthetics, excellent color stability, and long-term performance with minimal maintenance.

Wood

Wood siding can be thermally modified or through an acetylation process to improve durability by increasing dimensional stability and resistance to moisture, rot, and insects. Modified wood cladding offers the natural beauty of real wood while delivering enhanced performance suitable for exterior rainscreen applications.
