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.

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.

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 />

with high acoustic absorption<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.

Due to the fact that wood is a natural product, each veneer may be considered as unique. Colour and structure<br />
differences are considered as normal. Singularities such as knots and resin inclusions are not considered as defects,<br />
but as a part of the décor. There are differences in light fastness performances depending on the wood species and<br />
