refurbishment
Archetech - Page 78
Recently Finaspan had contact with
Tecnibo, a big fitting company in Belgium
and Luxemburg: they were put in front
of a challenge as they had to realize a
project, containing about 3000 m² of
veneered board under a tight deadline
for a lawyer’s practice. Move in of the
lawyer’s practice would be organized
within the 4 months in a completely
refurnished office. No delays would be
accepted.
Challenges were:
•
Find the veneer quality that would
please the end-customer
•
Define the stain appropriate to the
project: something contemporary
but as well timeless, reflecting a
peaceful harmony.
•
Organize boards & veneer sheets per
groups as how they will be placed in
the interior: veneer sheets used for
the doors had to follow the veneered
boards used for the furniture and
cladding
Rapidly, it appeared that the best option,
for the fitter and for the end-customer,
would lie in Finaspan pre-finished
products: the Aranya Oak Smoke boards.
Besides its easiness to be used, the
environmentally friendly aspect of the
Aranya seduced the architect and enduser: core board & glue are formaldehyde
free and lacquer has no solvent emission.
Joiner would save time in the finishing
of the boards: the veneered boards are
stained and lacquered with a UV lacquer,
allowing the joiner to put his focus on the
realization of the project.
Interior fitter was also delighted with the
protective foil applied on the boards:
he was able to cut, drill, plain and grove
without worrying about scratches made
on the surface of the boards. As the
protection stayed until final delivery,
there were no unpleasant surprises by
delivery of the work.
Aranya is a range of Oak and Walnut
veneered panels on MDF core for
interior application. All patterns consist
of selected A grade veneers which are
then colour washed and lacquered with
a five coat UV lacquer system to create
a range of six Oak patterns and a single
Walnut pattern. The panels are protected
against damage during handling by the
addition of a peel off protective film to
the surfaces. And finally, the product
ticks all environmental boxes in terms of
materials and formaldehyde emissions;
an important element for today’s society.
Ideal for use in high end commercial,
leisure and residential applications, the
product is now available through our
newly appointed sole distributor in the
UK, Decor Solutions of Thurrock –
