Ritek® XL Thermal Wall®

The Ritek XL Thermal Wall® System is a prefabricated wall panel system that is manufactured specifically to the architect’s drawings and is delivered complete with a high performance thermal insulation layer bonded to the inside of the panel.

This ensures that what is delivered to site is exactly what is required for the job and not more or less.

The Ritek XL Thermal Wall System is used for all external (building envelope) walls where thermal insulation, energy efficiency is required. The key benefits of the Ritek XL Thermal Wall System are built in thermal insulation providing a high level of energy efficiency and thermal comfort, high structural integrity, rapid speed of installation, reduced on site waste, fire and acoustic ratings.

Ritek XL Thermal Wall System

Overview

The Ritek XL Thermal Wall System is made up of pre-fabricated panels used to provide permanent formwork for in situ reinforced concrete walls. Ritek wall panels consists of 6mm fibre cement, recessed edge facing sheets, bonded to patented vertical composite studs plus an integrated thermal insulation layer.

All aluminium parts and accessories that are used are protected by chromate plating for full protection. Panels are stood in place, both vertical and horizontal reinforcement is placed as required and the wall completed by core filling the panels with structural concrete. Horizontal steel reinforcing bars can be placed at spacings in accordance with
AS 3600-2009.

Product Features & Benefits

The Ritek® XL Wall® and XL Thermal Wall® Systems are suitable for single and multi-story structures which are reinforced and concrete filled on site.

Structural walls, lift shafts, party walls, partition, passage, external, intertenancy and stairwells can all be constructed using the all-inclusive Ritek® Wall Systems. These systems can be used for all wall applications internally and externally. The response from the building industry regarding the Ritek® Wall Systems has been excellent, as it has proven to be a viable, price competitive alternative to traditional concrete and masonry-based methods such as precast, block and brick veneer, column, and infill.

The XL Thermal Wall with its high-performance thermal insulation provides an innovative and cost-effective solution for Building Designers to meet or exceed the requirements for thermal building insulation and energy efficiency.
