GreenGirt™
Adjustable System
The GreenGirt Adjustable composite metal hybrid (CMH) products allow the flexibility to meet those demands with a BEST PRACTICE thermally broken cladding support system.
We make the complex simple
GreenGirt Adjustable provides a CMH solution for structural misalignment from a small fraction of an inch to larger out of plumb issues for vertical and horizontal installation. The system is available with 36 segmented options and a variation of adjustability from .25“ to 4.5“ to meet unique project needs.
For Architects/Designers
We understand the need for versatile materials in architectural design. Our products and attachment systems are designed for the frequent changes in continuous insulation and facade design, while providing solutions to meet the demands for energy efficiencies and budget constraints. Easy to specify and designed as a universal cladding attachment system, GreenGirt can be installed on any substrate, for retrofit or new construction and for any building height.
For Installers
Our background in facade installation and decades of real-world experience drive an understanding of cladding systems and the building envelope. Most importantly, we know that time is money! Knowledge of field applications for cladding attachments has allowed the fully engineered GreenGirt Adjustable to be designed for maximized ease of use in field installation, utilizing minimal parts and pieces and manufacturing applications to meet schedule demands. Our technical support program is available to provide services from engineering to field installation training and project assistance.

GreenGirt Adjustable CMH Cladding Support System – Horizontal
GreenGirt Adjustable CMH Base Bracket with Dual Grip™ – A One-Piece Design
Simple. Ease of Use. Cost Effective. Universal Cladding Attachments
Our Adjustable Base Bracket with Dual Grip Retention is a simple one-piece design that can be used for either Vertical or Horizontal cladding applications. The GreenGirt Adjustable CMH system is a best practice universal fastening solution to meet the unique set of issues that sub-framing systems demand. This industry leading composite metal hybrid (CMH) thermally broken cladding support systems allows you to adapt and meet today’s building challenges of facade attachment configurations. GreenGirt Adjustable comes with Dual Grip retention clips for rail and insulation retention.
GreenGirt CMH HZ Clip – Horizontal
The GreenGirt CMH HZ Clip allows the GreenGirt Adjustable vertical base system to convert to a horizontal system and provides for maximum thermal efficiency.
The CMH HZ Clip system is used to attached horizontal rails, which allows for direct cladding attachment along the length of the horizontal rail. This provides an effective method for cladding attachment, if building wall studs are uneven or spaced in an inconsistent manner, or for claddings that are of irregular sizes. The CMH HZ Clip system with attached horizontal rails also allows other rails to be vertically installed for use in certain wall assembly applications. The CMH HZ Clip is used with the GreenGirt Adjustable base system for horizontal applications.
Metal HZ Clip – Horizontal (Galvanized, Aluminum)
The Metal HZ Clip allows the GreenGirt Adjustable vertical base system to convert to a horizontal system while providing optimal thermal break options.
The Metal HZ Clip system utilizes the same installation principles as the CMH HZ Clip. The only change is in the ability to use a metal clip instead of the CMH clip. The Metal HZ Clip is used with the GreenGirt CMH base system for horizontal applications.
GreenGirt Adjustable CMH Cladding Support System – Vertical
GreenGirt CMH Rail – Vertical
The GreenGirt Adjustable CMH bracket is the main support system for vertical cladding applications and provides for maximum thermal efficiency.
The GreenGirt CMH vertical rail system is used for a direct cladding attachment along the length of the vertical rail. This provides an effective method for cladding attachment for uneven building walls, inconsistent wall spacing, or irregular sized cladding. The CMH vertical rail system also allows other rails to be horizontally installed for use in certain wall assembly applications. The CMH rail is used with the GreenGirt Adjustable base system for vertical applications.
Metal Rail – Vertical (Galvanized, Aluminum)
The GreenGirt Adjustable CMH bracket is the main support system for vertical cladding applications while providing optimal thermal break options.
The metal vertical rail system utilizes the same installation principles as the CMH vertical rail system. The only change is in the ability to use a metal rail material instead of CMH. The metal rail is used with the GreenGirt Adjustable base system for vertical applications.
