In this project, the versatile HONEXT® Boards have been utilized for both wall cladding and decorative panels at Syra Coffee corner. Additional processing is require to transform the HONEXT® Boards and align them with the technical specifications defined by the architect.
According to the architect’s specifications, the boards require additional processing to achieve two different finishes. Firstly, for the interior wall cladding application, the boards were painted in green, while preserving the visible texture of the HONEXT® Boards. Secondly, the boards were grooved and painted, enhancing the panel’s decorative aspect and creating an aesthetically pleasing linear pattern.
INSTALLATION OF THE HONEXT® BOARDS
In wall-cladding applications, pinning with a pneumatic nail gun to a wooden structure can be a fast and efficient method to secure the HONEXT® Boards. The boards are secured in place by driving nails through them into the grid structure. This method is suitable when the primary purpose of the panels is to provide an aesthetic or protective covering rather than structural support.
When installing HONEXT® panels on a wooden structure, it is recommended to use PVA glue in addition to pinning and nailing for optimal performance.
