Innovative Patented Features Protect Your Investment

Non-Combustible

Non-combustible with exceptional fire resistance, FastPlank achieved compliance with California’s Wildlife Urban Interface (WUI) as well as standards set forth for ASTM E136, CAN/ULC S114, ASTM E84 and CAN/ULC s102.

UV/Fade Resistant

Crafted from high-quality 6063 alloys, our heavy gauge T6 extruded aluminum components are powder-coated and specially treated to resist fading and harsh ultraviolet rays, all backed by a 20-year finish warranty.

Hail/Impact Resistant

Through rigorous third-party testing, FastPlank® achieved a Very Severe Hail (VSH) rating. Two-inch ice balls fired at a velocity of more than 150 feet per second, demonstrated no visible cracking or splitting on our heavy-gauge aluminum planks.

Integrated Rainscreen

FastPlank is a AAMA 508-certified pressure-equalized rainscreen. Intelligent design channels water away from the building envelope and a 3/8” air cavity exceeds building code rainscreen requirements.

Salt Spray Resistance

FastPlank is anti-corrosive and rust-resistant. Independently tested in compliance with ASTM B117-73 Salt Spray (Fog) testing, FastPlank is certified AAMA 1402-9.

Wind Resistant

Wind load testing on multi-story structures ensures FastPlank and the integrated fastener system withstand intense storms and maintain integrity in high winds.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can’t find the answer you’re looking for? Give us a call to find out how FastPlank® Systems can enhance your design while saving time and money on your next project.

The FastPlank® system includes a pressure-equalized rainscreen to help expel moisture and debris more effectively, extending the look and life of your building exterior. Please review our Resources page and test data, results, and certifications to find out more.

Oil canning is a rippled or wavy deformation that affects metal products. Typically, this unsightly ripple effect can be seen in large, flat areas of a wall, diminishing the overall aesthetic of the building.

FastPlank® is crafted from heavy-gauge, extruded T6 aluminum, and secured to the wall using fasteners, allowing the planks to “float”, and thus allowing expansion and contraction in varying climates. FastPlank’s intelligently designed system combined with superior construction prevents oil-canning.

Pitting is an aesthetic defect that occurs when untreated aluminum is exposed to sea salt spray. For aluminum, pitting is the most common type of corrosion. Pitting is primarily an aesthetic problem that, practically speaking, never affects strength. Pitting is more severe on untreated aluminum. Surface treatment (anodizing, painting, or other coating methods) counteracts pitting. Pitting will only occur in the presence of an electrolyte (either water or moisture) containing dissolved salts–usually chlorides. The corrosion generally shows itself as extremely small pits that, in the open air, reach a maximum penetration of a minor fraction of the metal’s thickness.

*All of our exterior aluminum products are resistant to pitting, to ensure your property remains impressive and attractive for years to come.

All our exterior aluminum products are treated, finished and tested to be anti-corrosive and resistant to the effects of sea salt spray. Please review our Resources page and test data, results and certifications to find out more.

Since FastPlank® is constructed from heavy-gauge aluminum components, it can be removed, easily repainted or refinished, and re-installed at a fraction of the cost and time of a complete siding replacement.

If you decide to replace it, have confidence it can be recycled to contribute to a circular economy.

Yes, we do. We’d be pleased to meet with your team to share the features and benefits of our exterior building systems and solutions. Plus, we can facilitate accredited AIA course presentations. Contact one of our local area representatives to find out more.
