Beautiful cladding fins for contemporary homes

Cladding style, fire rating, fixing, design, style and substance are all topics of discussion banded around the chambers of most Architects and Designers. There is one stand out area of issue, that being vertical fins. Solid forms of small timbers are unstable and short-lived, whilst large sections are awkward to design, manufacture and of course install. Technowood have revolutionized the cladding arena and this includes vertical fins. They are simple in design, light weight and easier to install, these attributes save on materials and labour for most projects. Technowood is fabricated in Aluminium and GRP All Technowood products are finished with real timber… The colour of real timber is important and Technowood has vast experience in supplying products that match the expectations of the designer. Real wood does vary in terms of grain, texture, colour and Technowood is no different. There are 7 standard colours and for substantial projects Technowood does offer almost any colour. There are also 6 different wood veneers which and in turn be stained to offer a further choice for your project. Teak, Ash, Oak, Iroko, Beech and Mahogany. There is a preference for Ash where a large variation pattern in the grain is desired. If flat grain appearance is your expectation then Beech or Mahogany should be used. There are projects where there are many different shaped components from standard cladding to corner pieces, battens and fin arrangements, if using a solid timber then there may be an availability issue of matching timber in the many dimensions. With Technowood everything can match, same batch, same production and guaranteeing your project with the homogenous look you desire. There are fluctuations in colour due to the natural variation of the timber. This is not a defect, it's natural. Technwood have a showroom in Sky House Design Centre in Amersham, quick access from the Metro line. They also offer CPD presentation during the week direct to your practice… samples and product brochures all also available.
