Glass rainscreen by Bendheim.

Preserve Longevity by Locking Out Moisture

Bendheim rainscreen systems serve as premier protection against the damaging effects of moisture. This reduces the risk of structural deterioration caused by mold and mildew – and enhances a building’s health and efficiency from the outside in.

The use of multi-functional, decorative glass (for the outer cladding layer) makes an elegant and engaging design statement. It’s an aesthetic, budget-smart solution with optimal impact that has become increasingly attractive for transforming older, underperforming buildings.

Durable, quick to install and easy to maintain, all our glass variations are forward-thinking and customizable for design and functional requirements.

Key Benefits

A rainscreen works like a stylish raincoat for a building. It envelopes the exterior and, by creating a ventilated and drained cavity between the façade and the cladding, prevents the penetration of moisture.
