| New size for Trespa Meteon panels  New larger panels bring greater design freedom for architects, offering new design options that were not available until now. In addition to delivering aesthetic and commercial benefits, these new panels underline Trespa's commitment to growth. In July 2008 Trespa International, manufacturer of high quality architectural panels for exterior cladding and other applications, introduced a new size for its successful range of Trespa Meteon panels. The new format (4270x2130mm) is known as Trespa Meteon ZF. It is available in all Trespa Meteon colours, in all standard thicknesses - with satin texture. With this introduction, Trespa offers the market the largest sheet size available in HPL Compact, delivering significant customer benefits and underlining the company's leadership and commitment to market growth. The new large format Trespa Meteon panels offer exciting new design options for façade grids, that were previously not possible. Trespa Project Manager Claire Pépin says: "The introduction of the new size panel gives architects and designers much more choice. It allows them to create new shapes and combinations that previously could not be created because of size restrictions or because they were not economical." New shapes include, for instance, squares measuring 2m x 2m or 2m x 1m, etc. Ms. Pépin: "Projects can be completed with improved cost effectiveness. Analysis on a random selection of projects confirms that an improved yield can be achieved through cutting optimization. In addition to the design and cost benefits, Trespa Meteon ZF also lowers the overall burden on the environment. Lowering the amount of cutting losses will significantly reduce the product's overall environmental impact in terms of waste material and energy." "We are excited about the introduction of ZF, which will make Trespa Meteon literally the biggest panel available on the market today. This opens up many new opportunities for our customers, both in commercial and aesthetic terms. We are committed to working with our customers to ensure that the Trespa Meteon ZF panel is not only the biggest product, but also the biggest opportunity for growth in our industry." write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Construction News :: home page |
