Equitone
Equitone, formerly Marley Eternit, are at the forefront of the design and production of external fibre cement cladding and building boards
The Equitone range is produced using fibre cement, providing each panel with outstanding physical qualities with a thin and lightweight touch. Equitone fibre cement is A2 fire rated and has a life expectancy of over 30 years, a palette of over 110 subtle and inspiring colours and a variety of textures and finishes. Equitone fibre cement cladding systems offer a vast portfolio of aesthetic and performance features for every type of rainscreen application across all sectors.
The Equitone range is built up of Natura, Tectiva, Pictura, Materia and Linea, as detailed below.
Equitone Tectiva is a through coloured architectural fibre cement that offers a natural matt appearance with a rough unpolished fibre cement surface. Each panel is characterised by fine sanded lines and naturally occurring hues within the material that enhance the natural matt.
With a an additional UV cured top layer creating a hard, smooth, ultra matt silky finish, Equitone Pictura offers good protection against many types of staining and mechanical damage. Lightweight, yet strong, the Pictura surface is smooth and easily cleanable, as well as providing protection against graffiti from common aerosol and other paints.
The textured panels of Equitone Linea highlights the raw textures of the fibre cement material using shadows to create an ever changing façade. Every moment of the day, with the changing daylight, gives the façade a different aspect.
The newest addition to the range is Equitone Materia which is a through coloured natural fibre-cement panel without any coating or hydrophobation. Equitone Materia accentuates the subtle shade variations that come with a fibre cement material.
Equitone Natura is a through coloured fibre cement panel with a tactile and smooth finish that gives the full creative scope of modern cladding systems with the performance levels that contemporary buildings require.
Equitone Textura has a special coating protecting to create permanently vivid colours, with a smooth surface finish ensuring a long-lasting effect. Equitone Textura are easy-care façades with a fine-grained structure and building envelopes.
