TEKNOCLAD SILVER offers a consistent weathered appearance without the wait, repelling moisture and protecting the timber beneath.
Without suitable pre-treatment, timber facades change in appearance and weather significantly over time. Resulting in varying degrees of greying which can look unsightly due to the vast colour differences between each elevation.
TEKNOCLAD SILVER counters this effect. TEKNOCLAD SILVER provides timber surfaces with an even, natural grey tone from installation which erodes overtime and encourages a harmonious transition to natural greying and thereby defines the appearance of the facade from the beginning.
TEKNOCLAD SILVER is a water based, open-pore and thin-film system with a modern formulation based on natural raw materials. The emulsion penetrates deep into the wood and provides long-lasting protection against moisture and dimensional changes.
TEKNOCLAD SILVER also acts as a protective coating, providing excellent moisture protection to reduce expansion and contraction of timber. TEKNOCLAD SILVER also includes a preservative as part of the coating system specification, protecting the timber from wood destroying and wood discolouring fungi (black spore) in accordance with EN 599-1.
TEKNOCLAD SILVER is available in a selection of six standard shades with additional shades available on request.
The swatches above are various species and have been produced professionally in factory conditions. The substrate selected will have an effect on the overall appearance and finish of the product. Therefore these swatches should be used as a guide and official samples will be provided in your selected species, surface finish and shade for approval before processing.
We test our products using both accelerated weather testing machines and real world testing in our bespoke external testing programme, the first of its kind in the UK. Our testing field was designed and built in collaboration with our coating partners as well as brands like Accoya and Abodo. We even have our products on exposure testing in Malaysia and the Netherlands.
All of this information allows us to advise clients and architects on the most suitable specification for their project. It also allows us to demonstrate how different coatings perform on a range of timber species, as well as highlighting the issues that can be caused when a coating system is incorrectly specified.
TEKNOCLAD SILVER is designed to erode naturally with exposure depending on a range of factors such as the species, surface finish, building design and cardinal direction. Requiring no maintenance unless it is preferred by the customer to maintain a particular aesthetic. We offer our customers full support and guidance when preparing to maintain their coated timber. For more information on maintenance please get in touch.
