Durability through coating
As a further design element, the exterior and interior of the QuadCore® panel have two different profiles – Eurobox and Minibox. The panels are finished with a 50 micron thick coating. This provides UV and corrosion protection and ensures the colour and gloss resistance of the surface. It is particularly resistant to weathering and therefore durable. This ensures that the façade panels remain in perfect condition, both visually and technically, even after years of use.

Uncomplicated and quick processing
The panels are made of hard foam and are fibre-free. Additional protective clothing such as goggles or masks were not necessary during installation. The low self-weight also made it possible to complete the building envelope quickly. With the help of a crane, the individual sandwich elements could be lifted and screwed to the substructure. Visible fastening was used for this. On site, between 35 and 40 panels could be easily installed in one day by two teams. The installation was carried out by R. Dekker Dachdecker GmbH from Wildeshausen – a company that can already look back on several years of cooperation with Kingspan. Sustainability also plays a major role at the company – its fleet of electric vehicles, for example, is constantly being expanded. The load-bearing elements of the building structure benefit from the light weight – the lower loads could be taken into account accordingly in the dimensioning of the supporting structure. The latter also prove advantageous during transport – more material can be transported per truck load. This has a positive effect on the environment, as fewer journeys are necessary and CO2 emissions are saved accordingly.
