Terracotta Rainscreens

For centuries, kiln-fired terracotta has stood as one of the most enduring and beautiful building materials. In the modern era, it has re-emerged as a warm, timeless medium for sustainable rainscreen façades.

Terra5 by Cladding Corp represents a single-source rainscreen solution, uniquely addressing the complete wall assembly—from sheathing to terracotta tile—with high-quality finishes and a fully engineered wall system. Backed by over 25 years of leadership in North America, Cladding Corp has pioneered terracotta rainscreen design, advocating for drained and back-ventilated (DBV) systems that ensure both aesthetic distinction and long-term performance.

As one of the most referenced terracotta rainscreen providers in North America, we combine design freedom with engineering precision. Every project is supported by a full system analysis, considering thermal performance, penetrations on the air barrier, adjustability without shims, and ease of installation. Our solutions integrate world-class terracotta manufacturing with robust ECO Cladding sub-framing systems—delivering walls that are as technically sound as they are visually striking. With Terra5 Rainscreens, performance and affordability combine to form the foundation of your next terracotta rainscreen design!
