Engineered Non-Combustible Facade Systems
High-performance architectural facades. Engineered and certified. We provide North America’s premier fire-rated fibre cement, weathering steel and brick systems complete with thermally modelled sub-framing.
Keel AP specializes in delivering high-performance, non-combustible facade systems to the North American market. We bridge the gap between European manufacturing excellence and strict building codes. By providing engineered solutions from the sub-framing to the exterior skin—and owning our direct fire-testing IP, we remove compliance bottlenecks. We give architects the freedom to design with confidence, and installers the systems they need to execute without second guessing.
Code-Compliant Core: Our primary architectural facades are rigorously tested. We hold direct CAN/ULC S114 and ASTM E136 testing IP, ensuring our materials meet North America's strictest non-combustible requirements.
Engineered System: We offer flexible, project-specific integrations—ranging from exposed, colour-matched architectural fasteners to fully thermally modelled, concealed sub-framing systems.
Frictionless Logistics: Operating from our master distribution hub in Halifax, NS, we bridge the European supply chain directly to North American job sites, ensuring reliable, high-volume delivery.
