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 />

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 />
