BUILDING ENVELOPE
SFDC is a specialist building envelope contractor delivering the design, supply and installation of high-performance external cladding and internal fit-out systems for commercial, industrial and residential projects across the United Kingdom. As a single-source envelope specialist, we bring together SFS (Steel Framing System) framing, rainscreen facades, curtain walling, aluminium windows and doors, drylining, suspended ceilings and fire-stopping under one accountable partner. This integrated approach removes the coordination risk that comes with managing multiple sub-contractors, giving main contractors and developers a cleaner programme, fewer interfaces and a single point of responsibility from concept through to practical completion. Our SFS capability is the structural backbone of most envelope packages: we install Metsec, SFS Intec and equivalent galvanised steel framing to create a true, plumb substrate for rainscreen cladding and board systems.
On top of that framing we fix through-wall insulation and sheathing boards, forming a weathertight, thermally efficient envelope that meets current Part L and British Standard requirements. For the facade itself, we offer rainscreen panels in aluminium, zinc, copper, terracotta and high-pressure laminate, together with unitised and stick curtain walling for headline commercial schemes. Internally, our drylining teams deliver partition walls, sound-rated acoustic enclosures, shaftwall and protected stairwell construction, while our ceiling division installs suspended MF, grid and jointless ceilings. Every package is backed by full quality assurance, acute health-and-safety management and traceable fire-stopping certification, ensuring each completed envelope is fully compliant, energy-efficient and built to last.
