Flat Seam™

Facade Cladding System

Flat Seam

Flat Seam is a Zahner Versatile System that offers a clean, fastener-free aesthetic and flexible layouts at affordable prices.

Flat Seam provides designers with a customizable facade system that can feature almost any finish. Various aesthetics are achievable with this system, as it allows for a combination of varying panel sizes, shapes, and joint layouts with similar fabrication and installation techniques.

About Flat Seam

Our Flat Seam system comprises interlocking panels and stainless steel clips that secure the system to the substrate. These overlocking hems allow some tolerance in the system layout, making field modifications flexible and efficient.

Great for any vertical wall application or sloping roof, we can help you choose the best material, finish, panel size, and joint pattern for your project’s design and budget.

Benefits of the Flat Seam System

  • Material Finish Options
    An excellent option for thinner materials, controlling cost

  • Material Usage
    Panel sizes nest efficiently into raw material sheets

  • Installation Flexibility
    Panels can be field-cut to size, improving scheduling and productivity

  • Tolerances
    Hem overlap allows for ideal installation tolerances

  • Adapts to Geometry
    Flat seam panels easily form to complex geometry
