Fibre cement is a composite material composed of cement, cellulose, and mineral elements with a visible matrix. EQUITONE, made from this material, is available in panels up to 1.25 x 3 meters and can be customized into various sizes and shapes either in a workshop or on-site. It can also be perforated or printed. Various rainscreen fixing methods, both visible and concealed, such as riveting, screwing, and bonding on metal or wood support frames, are compatible. EQUITONE's through-coloured nature ensures clean and seamless design details, regardless of the chosen design options.
