The Hitchâ„¢ cladding attachment system is a patented modular building product for rain screen and exterior wall assemblies that offers a thermally broken and intermittent structural solution. Hitchâ„¢ is unparalleled when it comes to structural capacity, flexibility and thermal performance. Hitchâ„¢ can achieve effective R-values that exceed R60 and efficiency greater than 90% for various types of wall assemblies, while supporting heavy cladding loads in high-wind load and seismic conditions. The Hitchâ„¢ system can accommodate continuous exterior insulation thicknesses between 1 inch and 16 inches, and is suitable for use in all Passive House and ASHRAE climate zones across North America.
