Cymat Technologies, a material technology company known for manufacturing stabilized aluminum foam, has received a major order for its external cladding product, Alusion.
The architectural product would be used to clad a uniquely shaped building in Georgia’s capital, Tbilisi. The cladding would cover an area of 12,000 m2 in a multifunctional complex. The shape of the outwardly sloping building would make it distinct from other buildings in the city.
The external façade of the building will be clad with Cymat’s Alusion large cell two-sided open panels. ARCITECTS.GE’s Levan Mushkudiani wanted a new and creative cladding for the project and chose the Alusion panel.
The external cladding project represents Cymat's first order in the northern region. Valued at more than $700,000, it is the company’s second largest external cladding order.
Cymat's President and COO, David Fowler stated that the order marks an important breakthrough for the company to enter into a new region. He added that the order had to be produced and delivered within six weeks for installation in September 2011, and proves the improved manufacturing process of the company.
