Water resistant<br />

<strong>Parklex</strong> is successfully installed in a wide<br />

range of climatic environments throughout<br />

the world. Our extensive manufacturing<br />

experience and commitment to R & D has<br />

allowed us to develop a unique timber<br />

building material able to withstand the<br />

harshest weather conditions. In addition,<br />

our process provides timber panels for<br />

use in the aggressive environments created<br />

in and around swimming pools, spas and<br />

shower rooms.<br />

Anti-graffiti and maintenance<br />

It is an unfortunate fact of life that many<br />

of the best architectural projects have their<br />

appearance marred by the random application<br />

of graffiti, often applied with cellulose<br />

based spray paints.The surface of<br />

<strong>Parklex</strong> <strong>Facade</strong> has been specifically designed<br />

to ensure the simple removal of<br />

the graffiti, without damage to the panel<br />

characteristics or appearance. In addition,<br />

<strong>Parklex</strong> <strong>Facade</strong> resists soiling by airborne<br />

pollutants, and requires a very low frequency<br />

of general cleaning. Both important<br />

factors when considering the ongoing cost<br />

of building maintenance.<br />

Sun resistant<br />

One of the enhanced features of the new<br />

<strong>Facade</strong> panel is its high resistance to UV<br />

degradation, sunlight being the harshest<br />

natural element. As a progressive company,<br />

at <strong>Parklex</strong> we constantly thrive to<br />

deliver superior performance by way of<br />

advanced manufacturing techniques in<br />

panel production. Our materials offer the<br />

highest level of colour stability possible,<br />

whilst maintaining the beauty and variations<br />

found with natural timber.<br />

<strong>Parklex</strong> <strong>Facade</strong> will be available in April 2008.<br />

Natural timber veneers<br />

As with all <strong>Parklex</strong> products, the <strong>Facade</strong><br />

line is manufactured from natural timber<br />

veneers. Our raw material is procured<br />

within very strict tolerances for both appearance<br />

and quality, and all panels are<br />

made from hand selected veneers. Our<br />

manufacturing process creates a panel<br />

with strength and durability, characteristics<br />

essential to guarantee the optimal performance<br />

of modern rain screen facades.<br />

Finishes<br />

Everlook, our exclusive UV resistant overlay,<br />

has enabled us to extend our range<br />

of finishes. This provides specifiers and<br />

end users with greater possibilities in<br />

terms of veneer species and tone, creating<br />

truly unique building facades.<br />

Long term performance<br />

At <strong>Parklex</strong> we don't settle for simply complying<br />

with the necessary regulations. We<br />

strive to produce materials which far exceed<br />

the performance requirements laid<br />

down in the European Regulation EN 438-<br />

6:2005. This norm specifies a result after<br />

Artificial Weather Conditions Resistance<br />

Tests of 3.000 hours. After extensive development,<br />

<strong>Parklex</strong> <strong>Facade</strong> has achieved<br />

a result for most finishes of more than<br />

twice the published requirement. As leaders<br />

in our field, we don't just comply<br />

with reguslations, we exceed. Which is<br />

exactly what our clients expect.<br />
