Aludecor Timber-series ACPs

The 17th century was the age of stone; the 18th century was the peak of brick, the 19th century was the era of iron, 20th was the century of concrete. The 21st century will be the time for timber. - Alex de Rijke, director of London-based firm dRMM The 21st century is going through a transitional stage in timber architecture when the wood is taking over from steel and concrete as an architectural wonder material. While there is no reason to forcibly challenge the role of steel and concrete in construction, the innovative environment and the new architectural trends demand the use of timber, with the architects praising its sustainability, quality and speed of construction. New types of engineered timber are considered stronger and even more stable than regular wood, allowing architects to think about building high-potential and more ambitious timber structures. Timber shade used: TR-49 Joburg Knotty Brown On one hand, when several types of research consider timber as the smartest material to build skyscrapers or multi-storeyed buildings, the negative preconceptions related to the new-age timber architecture exists as well. The concern related to timber building’s durability, fairly regular and hectic maintenance, fire safety, environmental degradation factor, and many more issues prevails. However, this gap is fairly bridged by Aludecor’s Wooden ACP sheets, the wood-like aluminium composite panels. Aludecor has taken new-age timber architecture to the pinnacle with the stupendous innovation of Timber series Aluminium Composite Panels. With their Timber-series ACPs, timber skyscrapers are now a real prospect. The innovative ACP-material advances are allowing architects to use timber in a way that was unthinkable even ten years ago.
