Appearance

• Attractive aesthetic qualities due to the nature of the product – natural wood.
• Solid colour according to EN 438-2 standard, section 28 and 29.

The different layers of material give the panel its unique characteristics:

Resistance and durability

• Density ≥ 1'35 gr./cm³.
• High mechanical resistance. Flexural strength > 80 MPa and modulus of elasticity > 9000 MPa.
• High resistance to weather. In the artificial ageing tests, ProdEX obtains a colour stability of = 3 after 6000 hours of exposure to xenon radiation compared with the 3000 hours required by the EN 438-2:2005 standard, section 29 (except ProdEX Light colour, which obtains a result of 3000 hours).
• Long-lasting against wood-eating pests (termites): with a Grade 0 result (no sign of infestation) according to EN 350-1:1994 test.
• High resistance to sharp changes in temperature and moisture (-20ºC to 80ºC) without loss of mechanical properties or changes in appearance, according to EN 438-2:1995 section 19.
• Excellent dimensional stability See Joints, seals and dimensional stability.
• High impact resistance against hard objects with a small or large diameter.

Cleaning

• Easy to clean and maintain.
• The boards do not attract dust.

Graffiti resistance

• The exterior non-stick chemical sheet that impregnates the ProdEX panels prevents aerosol paint from sticking permanently to the board.

 

Fire-proof product (ProdEX IGN)

• All ProdEX boards can be supplied in a fire-proof format, according to EN 13.501-1 standard.
• This European standard provides the reaction to fire classification for all construction products.
• Construction combustible products can range from Class B to Class F, where Class B is the strictest of all classifications.
• Furthermore, the product may also hold an additional classification:
  • For smoke production: this can range from s1 to s3, where s1 is the strictest of the classifications.
  • For flaming droplets/particles: this can range from d0 to d2, where d0 is the strictest of the classifications.
