SPIDI® MechFix
A mechanically fixed façade support system brought to you by Fixfast.
Is MechFix suitable for my panel type?
Our MechFix system can be used with a wide range of cladding panels, including:
Known for their longevity, aluminium panels are lightweight, easy to install, and offer excellent resistance to weather and fire.
Providing exceptional durability, fibre cement panels are resistant to warping, cracking, and rotting - a perfect low maintenance solution.
Mineral fibre panels offer superior fire resistance and enhanced energy efficiency, as well as improved acoustic performance and longevity.
GRC panels tend to be lightweight yet robust, offering versatility in design. They're a durable, energy efficient, cost-effective solution.
Being weather resistant, low maintenance, and environmentally sustainable, there's a large range of aesthetic options to choose from.
Timber cladding provides a natural and timeless aesthetic. These panels provide excellent thermal insulation, as well as being a sustainable, modern option.
Stone panels are a great choice for their thermal and acoustic insulating properties - providing a premium, elegant finish.
