Innovative solutions for the Fantoni group at SICAM in Pordenone 2011.
A very significant presence for Fantoni at Sicam exhibition in Pordenone, which is this year presenting a lot of new products from its main divisions.The activity of the Research Centre continues, as always, on several fronts, on the one hand developing new construction technologies for panels and finishes while at the same time improving the technical performance of products and the eco-compatibility of materials. An effort driven by the objective of meeting the needs of a building market that is ever more sensitive to the issues of sustainability and healthy living.
ISB
The warmth of wood, the advantages of technology. The Fantoni boards division is launching ISB board in the market: it is a CE certified insulating panel aimed at the building sector. The board is moisture resistant and is made using the finest, carefully selected natural materials which provide extremely high level physical and mechanical characteristics. The board is in class E1 and is used in the building sector as an insulating and building component, also in combination with other materials. When being worked, the board is equivalent in quality to natural wood panelling, and can be lacquered or stuck directly, without further processing. Made exclusively of pure, untreated wood, ISB is a new material for ever higher quality building work.
IS
Panelling for structural use in damp environments. At first sight, the distinguishing feature of IS board is its attractively smooth appearance, but its technical qualities are immediately appreciated. This CE and FSC certified insulating panelling is suitable for a variety of building applications, also in combination with other materials. IS is moisture resistant, tough and durable over time and is available in a wide range of thicknesses.
TOUCHWOOD
Technology at the service of the senses. Touchwood revolutionises the faced panelling world with a unique new technology based on new generation facing papers which feel and look remarkably like wood. These Japanese papers, suitably surface-treated by Lacon, a company of the Fantoni group, allow a three-dimensional view of the decorative finish that gives an extremely clear visual perception of the wood. The resulting overwhelming sensation transmits natural feelings of warmth and well-being.
The resulting superior optical value and the selection of warm textures provides the market with an absolutely innovative product. Of particular interest is its application in the door sector, where the dynamic look of its decorative finishes with three-dimensional pore structure can be fully appreciated, emphasizing their aesthetic movement.
At the expo also some products from the Acoustic Panelling division are to be found, such as 4akustik and RadiantWall.
4AKUSTIK
Top-class health and safety. A new product has been created, based on the tried and tested panel with high sound-deadening performance to improve the acoustic quality of environments, but introducing a new formula that enables top health and safety performance to be achieved. 4akustik in fact conforms to the F4 star rating of the JIS standard, certified by the Japanese ministry and considered to be the most stringent in the world, relating to ultra-low formaldehyde content and therefore safeguarding of the environment. A highly eco-compatible product therefore, suitable for use in public environments in which the customer seeks technical performance combined with sustainable solutions, without compromising on looks. 4akustik also has a class B-s2,d0 fire rating (EC classification). Like the other products in the Acoustic Panelling range, 4akustik has an attractive appearance, due also to the numerous decorative finishes available which add an extra visual dimension to acoustic comfort.
RADIANTWALL
Fantoni upgrades the properties of its Akustikwall partition system by introducing a radiant system which gives heating and cooling characteristics to the wall. This revolutionary wall, mainly dedicated to office and public spaces, will ensure all the important properties granted by the radiant systems (as in Climacustic) with a decrease of 30% in maintenance costs compared with traditional systems.
