Acceptable Solution:

The Designa Schist product meets the requirements of NZBC Clause B2, based on the in service history of other masonry units and veneers constructed using a drained and ventilated cavity.

The Designa Schist units themselves have been manufactured to AS/ NZS4455 and can be used for providing adequate means of weathertightness as a cladding to both residential and commercial buildings in New Zealand.

Designa Schist is virtually maintenance free.

An annual check should be made to clean out the weep holes, brush the surface using a soft bristle brush and hose off with water.
