Incredible on the inside. Remarkable on the outside.

While HI-MACS® has been proving its worth indoors for many years, it can also be used for outdoor applications, especially for facades.

Goodbye graffiti

Extremely popular thanks to its non porosity, HI-MACS® can be cleaned easily and stands up to dirt.

Forms that have withstood the test of time

HI-MACS® façades may be 3D. Resistant to sun and moonlight, HI-MACS® offers a selection of colours that will not fade even slightly and are guaranteed five years. These colours are mentioned below and in the colour chart with a double asterisk.

3 Delta E : S02 Almond, S09 Cream, S28 Alpine White, G34 Arctic Granite, G38 Sea Oat Quartz, G48 Beach Sand.

4 Delta E: G02 Gray Sand, G04 White Quartz, G05 White Granite, G30 Ivory Quartz, G41 Confetti Quartz and S302 Opal.

A living material for shimmering facades

HI-MACS® has natural contraction and expansion properties related to temperature changes. When HI-MACS® is applied outdoors, thermal expansion is 30 x10^-6 m/°C. A suitable fixing system must therefore be selected.

To build the HI-MACS® façades, LG Hausys suggests using a structure made from aluminium sheeting and a ventilated façade system using BWM or Eurofox fixings: here is a demonstration of this.

What about seals?

HI-MACS® does not recommend using glue on the outer façade because of expansion. We suggest leaving gaps of 8 to 10 mm between each panel.
