Cladding Systems
Through Soffit Ventilation-
Ventilated soffit boards (Polo) are available in
widths from 150mm – 605mm and feature a single or double row of
slots for a 10mm or 25mm continuous air path respectively. A range
of PVC Strip Ventilators in 10mm and 25mm air gap configuration can
be used in conjunction with Swish Gee Pee or other soffit boards.
Over Fascia Ventilator
C504 allows a continuous 10mm air path to be
incorporated into new build applications in order to retain a clean
appearance to the soffit line. Over Fascia Ventilator C505 allows a
continuous 25mm air path.
Over Fascia Protection
Manufactured in 2.5m lengths from 100% recycled
PVC, Jumbotec (C502) is designed for eaves protection. In
refurbishment applications it supports the felt behind the fascia
and eliminates problems arising from deterioration of traditional
roofing felts. A Vented Eaves Protector C404 is available where both
eaves protection and ventilation are required in one unit. A
separate bird comb attachment C405 may also be incorporated into the
assembly to stop small birds and larger insects entering under the
eaves tiles.
Cladding Systems
The Swish range of cladding profiles offers the
specifier a choice of 4 styles, with a comprehensive range of
components, trims and fixings. They present the ideal substitute for
timber claddings, with the added advantage of attractive, low
maintenance qualities, weather resistance and durability. In
addition, they can significantly improve the thermal performance of
buildings, particularly when combined with insulation.

Technical Specifications / Performance Testing
Fire Retardant
Swish Cellular PVC conforms to the following
requirements:
-
BS.476 : Part 7 : 1987 Surface Spread of
Flame test & achieved CLASS 1
-
BS.2782 : Part 1 (method 140E) 182 (1988).
Alcohol cup test: Very low flammability
-
ASTM D2862-77: Critical oxygen index test:
48%
-
DIN 4102 Part 1 : (Class B)
Colour Fastness
Colour fastness assessed in accordance with
BS.1006 shows that white Swish Cellular PVC achieves a rating of 7-8
(8 being the text maximum) and that therefore no significant fading
or change in whiteness can be expected for a minimum of 20 years.
Swish has also tested its own, and competitors,
products using the latest ACT and suntest protocols. Both the
real-time and laboratory tests demonstrate the superior performance
of the Swish formulation versus lead based systems.
Organic pigments used in the manufacture of
coloured products are chosen for their colour fast properties.
However, as with all pigments, some natural shading will occur over
a number of years.
Climate
If intended for use in climates other than those
common to northern Europe, please consult Swish Building Products
for advice. Swish Cellular PVC profiles and components for external
use with normally perform satisfactorily in ambient air temperatures
up to 50ºC.
Swish Building Products has a dedicated technical
support team which offers assistance at all stages of design and
construction with a dedicated team of experts.
