Indoor wood<br />

coverings.<br />

The natural wood used to manufacture Parklex provides<br />

a look of quality and comfort for building interiors from<br />

the very first moment.<br />

With Parklex, ceilings, walls and floors, in addition to<br />

any other surface, such as counter tops, bathrooms<br />

and even showers take on a new leading role.<br />

If you’re looking for quality and comfort, Parklex has a<br />

wide range of natural wood finishes that achieve both<br />

purposes. In addition, its variety of finishes allows<br />

decorators and architects to be creative with combinations<br />

on any type of surface, allowing them to decorate the<br />

floors, walls or ceiling in the same wood, providing the<br />

degree of quality and comfort that only natural, highquality<br />

materials can convey.


Floor,<br />

walls and<br />

ceiling.<br />

The same colors and<br />

finishes throughout the<br />

interior.<br />

Parklex paneling may be installed on any surface:<br />

floors, walls and ceilings, combining aesthetic elements<br />

or keeping the same colors and finishes throughout<br />

the interior, converting rooms into authentic enclosures,<br />

completely lined with natural wood panels.<br />

The quality of Parklex comes from the materials and<br />

processes used to manufacture them. This quality is<br />

demonstrated precisely where the product suffers the<br />

most wear: floors, transit spaces and areas of intensive<br />

use, where any material suffers a high level of wear.<br />

Parklex, however, performs at top levels in these areas,<br />

with its properties remaining unchanged. Simple<br />

maintenance is all that is needed to prolong the life of<br />

these coverings, which makes them immediately<br />

economical.<br />

It demonstrates its<br />

quality where it suffers<br />

the most wear.


Silence:<br />

another form<br />

of comfort.


Recommended products:<br />

· Walls and ceiling:<br />

Noise and reverberation prevention is also a form of<br />

comfort. Parklex 500 is designed to be installed as an<br />

indoor wall and ceiling covering in locations with high<br />

acoustic absorption requirements: conference halls,<br />

presentation rooms, auditoriums, offices, etc., as well<br />

as furniture coverings.<br />

These panels insulate rooms from outside noise or that<br />

of nearby areas, providing an even greater feeling of<br />

comfort.<br />

means peace of<br />

In addition to being manufactured from natural wood,<br />

the entire Parklex line is tested according to the new<br />

European standard EN 13.501 regarding reaction to<br />

fire, obtaining the best results possible for organic<br />

materials.<br />

With Parklex, you are sure to make the right decision.<br />

Natural wood with the<br />

best results for reaction<br />

to fire.


Bathrooms,<br />

gymnasiums, spas<br />

or pools: don’t<br />

relinquish comfort.<br />

Cozy, moisture resistant<br />

spaces.<br />

Moisture is a factor that generally determines the materials<br />

used in bathrooms. Thanks to the production and treatment<br />

processes Parklex uses on natural wood, it is now possible<br />

to use Parklex coverings in any area of the bathroom,<br />

even in the shower, transforming them into areas that are<br />

just as inviting as the rest of the interior.<br />

The Parklex line stands out for its moisture resistance,<br />

which also allows its problem-free use in gymnasiums,<br />

spas or pools, making these areas (and any other space<br />

where appearance, hygiene, resistance and cleanliness<br />

are important) exclusive places that are both pleasant and<br />

totally unique.<br />

About Parklex<br />

Production process<br />

Natural wood<br />

Each type of Parklex is subjected to a different production<br />

process, depending on its final application: interiors, exteriors,<br />

damp areas, etc.<br />

The base is always high-density laminated wood with a paper<br />

fiber core that has been treated with thermosetting resins and<br />

compressed at high pressure and temperature.<br />

The surface is always made from 100% natural wood, treated<br />

according to its application: to resist special weather conditions<br />

or to perfectly resist the intensive use it might receive in<br />

interiors.<br />

Finishes<br />

Range<br />

Perfect adaptation to the project design is an essential requirement.<br />

That’s why the technology used to manufacture Parklex<br />

allows us to apply different finishes, all in natural wood, to<br />

integrate them completely into the environment that is required<br />

for each project.<br />

The variety of finishes and colors in natural and dyed panels<br />

sets Parklex apart as a result of its versatility, making it the<br />

ideal covering from any type of project.<br />

International<br />

Architects<br />

Providing service on an international level has meant establishing<br />

an extensive network of Parklex distributors on all five<br />

continents. This allows us to work more closely with our clients<br />

and offer them better service in a way that is more accessible<br />

to them. It also lets us understand their needs perfectly and<br />

first hand.<br />

Guarantees / Quality Certificates<br />

The best architects in the world use Parklex in their most<br />

emblematic creations. Why is this so? Because they feel<br />

comfortable and at ease, and because the results do not<br />

disappoint them. Without a doubt, it is because at Parklex we<br />

have been working for over 15 years on a daily basis with<br />

architects from all over the world, including, for example,<br />

Santiago Calatrava, Frank Gehry, Norman Foster, Jean Nouvel<br />

and Nicholas Grimshaw, adapting our range to their requirements.<br />

This has made Parklex the natural wood covering of<br />

choice in many of the best quality and best-known projects in<br />

the world.<br />

This can only be achieved by a brand with an absolute<br />

guarantee, capable of offering the perfect product, totally<br />

adapted to their needs, with problem-free application.<br />

Rigorous testing guarantees Parklex’s excellent performance.


Parklex – The ideal solution<br />

Quality and performance are only the most visible results<br />

of Parklex. As if this weren’t enough, the advantages<br />

offered by Parklex are evident from the moment<br />

it is installed, up to its long-term maintenance.<br />

Characteristics<br />

Ease of installation.<br />

The floating flooring system is simple and low-cost. The rest<br />

of the products may be easily installed, following clear, professional<br />

instructions.<br />

Maintenance.<br />

Parklex does not require any sort of scraping or varnishing<br />

as part of its maintenance. It need only be lightly cleansed<br />

with a mop, using liquid ph-neutral soap and water.<br />

Acoustic absorption.<br />

Parklex 500 and Parklex 700 may be perforated, making them<br />

the ideal materials for acoustic absorption. They have been<br />

manufactured specifically for interiors where the acoustic<br />

factor is important.<br />

Service.<br />

Parklex has a technical support department to answer any<br />

questions regarding product assembly and to give advice on<br />

the most appropriate type of covering to meet every need.<br />

Strength.<br />

Material for intensive use indoor areas is made with the highest<br />

quality natural wood panels that have been impregnated using<br />

the Gureprex system, which provides a series of benefits with<br />

regards to abrasion, moisture resistance, hardness, scratch<br />

resistance and dimensional stability that are far superior to<br />

any of the varnish-treated products currently found on the<br />

market.<br />

Quality.<br />

Parklex means quality. All our products have earned the CE<br />

mark and carry an absolute guarantee. Exterior panels are<br />

manufactured according to the European standard EN 438,<br />

which applies to HPL (high pressure laminates). This is why<br />

Parklex is the covering preferred by the world’s most prestigious<br />

architects.<br />

Moisture resistance.<br />

The technology used by Parklex to manufacture the exterior<br />

coverings completely guarantees them against extreme weather<br />

conditions: rain, sun, humidity and heat. This same technology<br />

allows us to provide a material for interiors with identical<br />

resistance properties. Parklex therefore provides the ideal<br />

product for damp areas.<br />

Fire behavior.<br />

The entire Parklex line is classified according to the new<br />

European standard EN 13.501-1:2002 regarding reaction to<br />

fire, obtaining the best results possible for organic materials.

Wood<br />

Parklex is manufactured from fine timber veneers, therefore the colour and grain of different batches will exhibit natural variations. Due to the limitations of<br />

printed media, the finishes printed in this catalogue are merely an approximation of their real color. For this reason, before placing any order, Parklex<br />

recommends consulting our sales personnel to request actual samples.
