The façade is the business card of every building and the design and material used is very decisive for the appearance. Bamboo is a durable material that is suitable as façade covering, especially if a natural look is desired.
Bamboo offers several benefits over other siding materials:
Schoonschip calls itself “the most sustainable floating neighborhood within Europe” and wants to act as a leader and pioneer, experimenting with the newest sustainability techniques and solutions. Literally, Schoonschip can be translated as clean ship. Sustainability naturally is the core value of the project which is home to 46 households. 6 houses are finished with MOSO® Bamboo X-treme® Siding and Beams. Bamboo X-treme® is CO2 neutral or better during the product lifespan and is highly suitable for use in humid environments due to its natural resistance to fungi and micro-organisms. An ideal and beautiful choice for the sustainable-conscious inhabitants!
Bamboo wall siding for outdoor use is available in the form of siding boards or beams.
Bamboo X-treme® is the most widely used exterior material in bamboo. More than 10 years after its introduction, the material has proven to be very durable and easy to care for. Due to the Thermo-Density® production process, bamboo boards are preserved. The siding boards can be installed untreated as building façade and require no finishing or maintenance. Bamboo X-treme® grays naturally and is extremely stable, which means that the boards remain nice and straight. Among the technical properties of Bamboo X-treme® Siding, the fire class B-s1-d0, use class 4 (EN 335) and durability class 1 (EN 350 tested according to CEN/TS 15083-2) are particularly appreciated.
The Bamboo X-treme® range offers not only siding boards but also beams in different dimensions. The beams can be installed in various forms as siding. The creativity of the architect and the quality of the installation work determine the final beauty of the façade. The Bamboo X-treme® beams age naturally and are very stable, keeping them nicely straight and level.
