One of the most important developments in Natural Stone Cladding during the last decade has seen the widespread introduction of carrying systems in lieu of more traditional methods. Some of the more innovative designs offer faster more economic installation with greater accuracy whilst retaining architectural flexibility. Eclad, an early pioneer of these progressive systems, realised that in order to meet the requirements of a fast changing construction industry and to allow more architectural freedom of expression a new approach to cladding was required. As a result of this Eclad has taken the highly successful original design developed during the late 1990's and evolved it into the new eclad systems that offer even more benefits and higher performance.
