Are you considering utilising timber for your latest commercial project? At BCL Timber, we carefully create our timber panels and fire resistant wood effect systems to meet industry regulations and comply with building codes. So you can have peace of mind, knowing that your newly installed timber is not just beautiful, but also lowers overall risk, improves compliance and provides more assurance to all key stakeholders.
Improve Safety with Fire Resistant Wood Panels
Our TIMBER EFFECT range is not only beautifully crafted and incredibly realistic – but with aluminium as its main material, provides a route to deliver beautiful fire resistant wood finishes.
This world-class exterior wood-effect A1 cladding is ideal for use in locations where fire safety is paramount, including train stations, airports and offices. Some of these buildings, with cladding over 18m tall have additional regulatory demands, such as fully non-combustible fire performance… and that’s where our panels come in!
Our systems are versatile, practical and can be non-combustible.
The TIMBER EFFECT range has been carefully crafted to supply aluminium panels with a non-combustible wood finish..
You may be wondering, how we have mastered turning metal into something that looks like timber..?
We use durable Polyurethane Powder Coating and unique grain sublimation process to recreate the naturally sophisticated appearance of wood, whilst delivering exceptional fire-performance and non-combustible timber finishes. This solution provides safe channels in public buildings while not compromising style.
Direct UKAS fire testing – you can trust in
We go the extra mile and offer fire testing with UKAS labs. They are accredited experts who can ensure our wooden slat panel systems are compliant with Approved Document B, amongst other building fire codes.
The service means you can have the full tests and data ready for any commercial fire assessment, giving you the power and data to navigate complex compliance requirements
Here are a few of the numerous benefits of our fire-resistant wood cladding:
- The panels are not affected by moisture (non-hydroscopic)
- This stable timber system won’t distort like natural wood, making it long-lasting and ideal for commercial projects.
- It’s the ideal solution for projects that need to meet building requirements while wanting panels that look attractive for years.
Lower Your Project Carbon Footprint.
Nowadays, a project’s carbon footprint matters more than ever, and our wooden slatted panels can help. Our wood panelling for walls is prefabricated, so there’s less than 1% waste. This also means the process is smoother and more efficient, reducing installation time and avoiding mess and extra on-site cleanup.
Our wood panels are made from recycled content, around 20% of the composition. The organic content is typically 65%, so you know you’re getting high-quality timber.
