The progressive rainscreen system utilizes male-female connections to provide a quick installation process on the job site. Fasteners are hidden inside the panel joints and insert panels fill the joints with a matching finish.
The wet seal system also has no visible fasteners just as the rainscreen system. It utilizes performance silicones at each joint to create a vapor barrier at the face of the panel, whereas the rainscreen systems permit water into the cavity and weep it out the bottom of the panels.
