Novowood: the elegance of wood
Born from the need to put right the intrinsic defects of natural wood, the WPC is the result of scientific research applied to building materials. Conceptually, a composite material benefits from the advantages of the "basic materials" that make it up, then you can create materials with hi-tech features and significantly broader application areas. Iperwood, originally founded as a company for the import of exotic timber, which later became a pioneer in the creation of wood bank protection, along with the University of Ferrara, has created NOVOWOOD, a mix of Wood Flour, HDPE and additives. The product boasts essential features for outdoor use, such as high resistance to weathering, lack of maintenance and versatility. Floating flooring, pavings on frames, wall coverings, sun screens and any other work finishing, possessing a degree of workability comparable to the natural wood can be made with Novowood Often used as a detail of architectural value, the material is used in the construction of solar shielding, also with prefabricated panels, as in the attached project, in which metal frames have been made in the workshop with predisposition for housing the profiles WPC Novowood. Afterwards, once obtained the prefabricated panels, they were placed in work on special guides, which through a system of rollers, make lateral movement possible.
