These products combine cost-effectiveness with sophisticated design. Additionally, the spotlight is on fermacell
® gypsum fiberboards and screed elements. Specifically for new construction in timber framing, they offer an economical prefabrication solution, precise scheduling, and rapid project completion. Complementing these, fermacell
® Therm25™ dry screed elements provide the market with a fast and dry solution for underfloor heating installation.
Productivity is essential for efficiently managing construction projects. Especially during economically challenging times, it often becomes the critical factor for a business’s survival. While optimizing workflow organization is crucial for efficiency, equally important are high-quality and easily implementable building materials. The use of economically viable aHigh-Quality Design and Cost-Effectiveness with Hardie® Architectural Panel
The market now has access to a product that successfully balances high-quality design with cost-effectiveness: the Hardie® Architectural Panel.
Building material manufacturer James Hardie Europe is showcasing a wide range of innovations at the Bau 2023 trade fair, precisely meeting these requirements. The new Hardie® Architectural Panel facade panels achieve the delicate balance between sophisticated design and economic viability. These fiber cement facade claddings can be used for retrofit facade renovations in nearly all types of buildings. Notably, the facade update can also serve energy-efficient refurbishments. An appealing price-performance ratio ensures that stylish facade design is financially feasible even in affordable, multi-story residential construction. Two key factors contribute to this: Hardie® Architectural Panel facade panels are weather-resistant, providing homeowners, builders, and investors with long-lasting durability and minimal maintenance costs, resulting in overall cost-effective on-the-wall solutions.
Additionally, their easy-to-maintain surface and lightfast color finish further reduce maintenance needs. Moreover, they offer maximum safety with excellent fire protection: Hardie® Architectural Panel facade panels are non-combustible (fire protection class A2, s1-d0), making them suitable for facades in all building classes, including high-rises. Simultaneously, the constructive separation of substructure, insulation, and cladding ensures that individual system components can be separately dismantled at the end of their lifecycle. This guarantees proper sorting for reuse or recycling.
With two distinct surface finishes—brushed concrete and textured plaster—as well as six colors (Snow White, Pebble Gray, Anthracite Gray, Mist Gray, Slate Gray, and Black), Hardie® Architectural Panel provides all the prerequisites for a timeless, modern facade look.
