Background:

In the building exterior design of a commercial complex, the architects wanted to create an exterior wall effect that was both modern and environmentally friendly, and at the same time meet the specification requirements for building energy efficiency, fire prevention, durability and other aspects, and the construction process should be as efficient as possible without affecting the overall progress of the project.

Challenge:

Common exterior decorative materials such as metal panels, although the shape of a variety of strong durability, but the cost is high, and easy to reflect in the sun, which may cause light pollution; paint, although colourful, relatively simple construction, but easy to fade, peeling, the need for regular renovation, high maintenance costs, and fire prevention performance in general. The traditional dry-hanging of stone on the external wall is difficult to construct, the construction period is long, and the bearing requirements of the main structure of the building are also high.

Solution:

Choose wood-plastic exterior decorative panels. This decorative panel through a special formula design, so that it has a good fire performance, to achieve the national fire safety standards for building walls. Its surface is weather-resistant, long-lasting colour, can simulate a variety of natural wood texture and modern architectural decorative effect, to meet the design needs. In terms of construction, WPC decorative panels are lightweight and can be installed by dry-hanging or pasting, which greatly shortens the construction cycle. For example, the construction team used the pendant dry-hanging system to fix the WPC decorative panels onto the keel of the building's external wall in sequence according to the design layout, which is easy to operate and highly efficient in construction.

Results:

After the completion of the commercial complex, its unique wood-plastic exterior wall decoration effect attracted a lot of attention. The modern and simple lines with the natural wood texture make it stand out among many buildings and become a bright landscape in the city. After years of use, the exterior decorative panels are still intact, without fading, deformation, peeling and other problems, effectively reducing the maintenance costs of the building facade, while its good thermal insulation performance also contributes to the building energy saving, and realises the organic unity of aesthetics, practicality and environmental protection.
