NATURCLAD – W: Versatile Exterior Wood Cladding by PARKLEX PRODEMA

PARKLEX PRODEMA introduces NATURCLAD – W, an innovative exterior wood cladding material designed for various architectural applications, including ventilated facades, curved facades, and louvers. Offering a range of finishes, mounting systems, and formatting options, NATURCLAD – W provides architects and designers with unparalleled flexibility to create unique facade elements that enhance the visual appeal of any building. With its stable and sturdy composition, NATURCLAD – W envelops architecture in a natural covering, projecting a sense of authenticity and harmony with its surroundings.

Panel Composition and Construction

NATURCLAD – W is engineered as a high-density laminate timber panel, combining kraft paper treated with thermoset resins and natural timber veneers resistant to UV radiation and atmospheric agents. The panels undergo a high-pressure and high-temperature pressing process, ensuring durability and longevity in exterior environments. Additionally, NATURCLAD – W features Everlook®, a special overlay that enhances UV resistance and color stability, extending the lifespan of the panels while minimizing maintenance requirements. This sustainable approach to panel construction underscores NATURCLAD – W’s commitment to environmental responsibility and long-term performance.

Installation Benefits of Ventilated Facades

As a bioclimatic architectural solution, the ventilated facade system offers significant advantages in energy efficiency and building performance. By minimizing heat dissipation in cold months and heat absorption in warm months, ventilated facades provide superior thermal insulation and comfort for building occupants. The system’s permeability allows for the natural diffusion of water vapor, preventing condensation buildup and ensuring the facade remains dry and resilient against environmental elements. Furthermore, the incorporation of acoustic protection features enhances sound absorption within the building envelope, contributing to a quieter and more comfortable indoor environment.

Mounting Systems for Diverse Applications

NATURCLAD – W offers a range of mounting systems tailored to specific project requirements and aesthetic preferences. Whether concealed or exposed, the mounting systems provide secure and reliable attachment options for wall and ceiling applications. Louver mounting systems are ideal for creating shading devices that enhance energy efficiency, while clapboard facade systems offer a traditional yet effective solution for ventilated facades. Additionally, the flexibility of NATURCLAD – W panels allows for installation on curved facades, enabling architects to realize their design vision with precision and creativity.

Maintenance-Free and Sustainable Design

One of the standout features of NATURCLAD – W is its low-maintenance design, thanks to the protective surface composition that withstands adverse weather conditions without requiring additional treatment. The panels meet stringent European standards for resistance to weathering and fire safety, ensuring long-lasting performance and compliance with regulatory requirements. Furthermore, NATURCLAD – W is certified for sustainability, contributing to LEED or BREEAM certification efforts and promoting eco-conscious building practices. With its durable construction and environmentally friendly design, NATURCLAD – W sets a new standard for exterior wood cladding, offering architects and designers a versatile and sustainable solution for enhancing building facades.
