ABOUT TELLING

ENGINEERED RAINSCREEN FACADES

Industry Leaders in High Performance Rainscreen Systems

Rainscreen facades in a wide range of materials

Telling Architectural Systems designs and supplies a variety of façade rainscreen systems. Each system from Telling is fully engineered and comprehensively tested. With offices in Saratoga Springs, NY and Wolverhampton UK, Telling maintains a staff of in-house engineers to review and support design recommendations and modifications when necessary. Services provided by Telling stem from years of experience in construction, material handling, contracting and on-site construction management for select projects. These services are brought to bear in whole or in part based on the needs and resources of the clients and design team.
 
Telling has a long standing relationship with independent and accredited testing laboratories. Telling has contracted with them for testing of multiple façade systems to assure performance that complies with code requirements for North America.

Services we provide:

  • Development of the cladding system design and specification

  • Preparation of die drawings

  • Full set of shop drawings for the mock-up and project cladding systems

  • Complete set of engineered calculations for the façade system

  • Technical assistance during the budgeting phase

  • Jobsite & installation support

“We found Telling to be uniquely qualified and met all of our expectations.”

OUR COMMITMENT TO SUSTAINABILITY

Telling Architectural Systems and our suppliers are committed to providing materials with the lowest environmental impact. Durable, lifetime products are the best solution to reduced carbon emissions and the skin of a building is the most important passive system.

Our cladding panels are made from natural materials, fully recyclable, and certified via ISO 14025 and EN 15804.

Telling Architectural is a proud member of the US Green Building Council (USGBC), a non-profit organization that promotes sustainability in building design, construction, and operation through LEED.  LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is the world's most widely used green building rating system.

Telling was proud to be a part of the first LEED Gold certified school project and continues this commitment on every project. The design and use of our materials assisted the Learning Spring School and many others to achieve this certification. We proudly promote and support Passive House and other efficient facade disciplines.
