element13 benefits
The PVDF coating used on element13 solid aluminium panels is a highly efficient 'closed-loop' process. The coating curing ovens burn harmful VOCs and utilize them as fuel, saving energy and eliminating pollutants.
Recyclability and Reduced Emissions
element13 solid aluminium wall cladding panels are 100% recyclable, providing an eco-friendly building solution. Up to 95% less energy is required compared to other primary metals, resulting in a significant reduction in emissions.


element13 exterior cladding is made from corrosion-resistant alloys that are immune to the harmful effects of UV rays, ensuring optimal performance and product longevity.
