US 12,331,510 B2 · Wall cladding panels, systems, and methods of installation and use

Abstract

A panel system provides a prefabricated exterior building façade. Various wall claddings and clips for hanging wall claddings are discussed. Panel connector parts are disclosed for hanging wall cladding panels against a building wall. Panel connector parts are disclosed for hanging dual layers of insulating material against a building wall with a drainage cavity or gap defined between the dual layers. A wall cladding system includes: a building wall; a plurality of wall cladding panels each comprising insulating material and defining an external face, a rear face, and side edges, with adjacent of the wall cladding panels abutting one another along respective side edges; panel connector parts mounted on the building wall and mounting the plurality of wall cladding panels as a continuous thermal break layer against the building wall.
