Can Scyon™ Matrix™ cladding achieve a vertical, horizontal and off set pattern appearance?
Yes. Please refer to the current Scyon™ Matrix™ cladding Installation Instructions for further details.
Can Matrix™ panels be installed without the Scyon™ Cavity Trim?
No. The Matrix™ panels are sealed around all six sides therefore the Matrix panels require a cavity. Also Matrix™ panels have only been designed and tested when installed onto the Scyon™ Cavity Trim.
Can Scyon™ Matrix™ cladding be fixed with a nail gun?
Yes. C25 16 gauge 304 stainless steel Brad nail may be used with a suitable gun nailer.
Note: High wind area restrictions do apply.
