Rockpanel

It is nice when building materials have as little as possible impact on the environment, and are durable and recyclable.

Rockpanel Facade Cladding boards are made from volcanic material,which makes it highly durable, fire-safe and recyclable. Rockpanel Facade boards are produced from compressed natural basalt and bonded with an organic binder and combine the advantages of stone and workability of wood. They can be formed, bent and twisted, matching them to each project to achieve the desired effect. In the event of a fire, the stone wool structure remains intact and no droplets form, which prevents the risk of fire spreading. Rockpanel is not only light and easy to install, but also have good mechanical properties. They help change the appearance of the building to make them aesthetically pleasing. Rockpanel boards are are primed with a high quality waterborne light grey undercoat and front surface of the board can be painted.  

Rockpanel facade cladding contributes to urban regeneration by transforming tired, outdated buildings into, attractive, desirable warm living environments. Using Rockpanel facade cladding boards saves a considerable amount of time and maintenance costs. The speed of installation will result in lower costs for both personnel and equipment.

• Conventional tools such as hand saws, circular saws or jigsaws can be used.
• Can be fixed with nails, screws, rivets, invisible fixing, concealed fixing.
• Bendable and flexible to follow the shape of the building.

Rockpanel boards are dimensionally stable, don’t shrink or expand and are ready for all weather conditions. Rockpanel boards enable narrow joints (5 mm) and also completely seamless applications.

The core material of Rockpanel facade boards is made from the natural volcanic rock basalt, which can withstand extremely high temperatures by nature. The standard Rockpanel boards has fire class B-s2,d0 and the premium boards A2-s1,d0. Rockpanel A2 exterior cladding is for applications, where high levels of fire performance are desirable or mandatory.
