Swisspearl PLANEA
Fresh and colorful... vibrance and creativity!
Swisspearl PLANEA is a grey-based fiber cement panel with an opaque coating. The matt, smooth finish emphasizes the clear, bright, and bold colors for an overall intense appearance. In addition, the opaque acrylic surface coating also protects the panels, and thus y our building, from extreme weather conditions. PLANEA panels offer an intense burst of color, yet still offer a natural, lasting surface for the exterior of the building envelope.
PLANEA panels are air-cured and not autoclaved (unlike competing panel products). Advantages of this approach include:
- The 28-day curing process allows panels and fibers to cure naturally, without excess energy or heat applied
- High-quality raw materials provide a better finish when air-cured over time
- Longer lasting durability with increased 'creep' capacity - reduces tensile stresses from panel expansion/contraction
- Natural process, no additional heat applied
- Low moisture movement within panels, reducing internal panel stress
- Better resistance to environmental/chemical agents based on air-cured process
PLANEA is composed of all-natural raw materials and serves as an eco-friendly product that meets the demands of sustainability inherent to modern rainscreen cladding design.
