PLATTA-Facade Element

Siparila PLATTA façade elements do not require further treatment on the work site. This saves painting costs and speeds up the building process. Because of the quality of our wood fibre and paint, there is no need to repaint the façade for a duration of 10 to 15 years. PLATTA façade elements are also available in fire-retardant coating.

PLATTA façade elements can be installed on construction site or element factory. The elements can be made in three different sizes which improves the installation and removes unnecessary sawing as well as enabling versatile design in façades. The thickness of the element is 20 mm and width 615 mm. PLATTA panels are available in three different lengths; 1086 mm, 1630 mm and 3260 mm. The raw material of PLATTA façade elements is cross-laminated timber.

Siparila PLATTA façade element’s tongue and groove design has been developed to enable invisible fastenings. The tongue and groove fastening side of each panel is hidden underneath the next panel which not only creates a smooth façade but also increases the siding’s durability as water cannot seep through nail heads and damage the wood. Façade elements are fastened in every stud using two nails or staples.
