Our TABS II Thin Brick Installation System

The TABS II system provides deeper texturizing to increase moisture control, various spacing and custom length tabbed supports; (you can use different heights and thickness of your favorite thin veneer, tile or stone).  New ideas like a tabbed veneer and mortar locking system, which can be used actively or passively.  Material improvements:  greater corrosion resistance (hot dipped galvanized G90 rated structural steel) and thermo set coating methods to guarantee longer life of the thin veneer system. 

Thin veneer panel systems save resources (no need for lintels, footings, shelf angles, structural support, freight and decreased labor costs) compared to conventional masonry construction.   

Methods for using a thin veneer system:  Curtain wall manufacturers and steel wall fabricators are now building complete walls with thin veneer systems already attached. These pre-built wall assemblies are then delivered to the site, saving valuable construction time.  Manufactured fireplaces, commercial interiors and residential exteriors are areas were steel thin veneer panel systems can save time or reduce costs.
