Norcross, GA – IMETCO (Innovative Metals Company, Inc.) is now among a short list of metal manufacturers to carry ICC approvals for its metal wall cladding systems. The company recently received ICC approvals for its Latitude™ and Element™ architectural wall panels used as a part of its rainscreen systems.

ICC-ES is a subsidiary of the International Code Council (ICC), the developer of the International Codes (I-Codes). ICC-ES evaluation reports are aimed particularly at making it easier for those charged with enforcing code — building officials, building departments, building inspectors in the field — to determine the compliance of products with code.

Latitude™ metal wall panels provide dynamic visual impact and proven resistance to wind uplift and water infiltration. Suitable for horizontal and vertical applications, Latitude features a wide variety of profile configurations that can be mixed and matched to provide stunning results.

The Element™ architectural wall panel system is a horizontally or vertically applied metal panel. Its interlocking legs create a 3/4” or 1” reveal line and concealed clips improve strength and flatness.

“ICC approvals are only granted after extensive vetting of exceptionally tested products by reputable manufacturers. As such, IMETCO has been recognized as a premier supplier of high quality engineered rainscreen metal cladding systems and one of only few with such approvals in the industry.” said Jonnie Hasan, P.E., IMETCO’s director of engineering and sales support.
