What is Petrarch reconstituted stone rainscreen made from?
Petrarch reconstituted stone is Made in Britain, and manufactured here in Hastings for over 50 years. It is composed predominantly of marble and stone; material which would otherwise go to landfill and is instead up-cycled into these highly durable, contemporary rainscreen panels. The difference with Planx is that wherever possible the slim plank is created from off-cut material, for further optimisation – thereby supporting an eco-conscious design ethic.
Mindful manufacturing – EPD Certified
Enabling specifiers to unlock their design potential, Petrarch Planx takes contemporary architecture to new heights. Petrarch Planx blends sustainable design and sophisticated, on-point aesthetics. Crafted from predominantly crushed marble and stone, this innovative rainscreen cladding panel is redefining how we think about modern facades. A new chapter in materiality and sustainability, Petrarch Planx brings together timeless beauty and cutting-edge technology to deliver sleek, slimline panels that are as stylish as they areenvironmentally conscious.
The essence of Petrarch Planx lies in its meticulous manufacturing process, where crushed marble and stone are reconstituted to form a material that embodies both durability and elegance. With a design that is as slim as it is bold, each panel achieves a striking, sleek profile that enhances the visual dynamism of any building. Its understated, yet unmistakably contemporary appearance integrates seamlessly with any design context.
“Petrarch Planx is a material that speaks to the future,” says Tom Walker, Sales Director
“With the inherent luxury often imbued with stone, combined with sustainable qualities and a modern slimline aesthetic, Petrarch Planx ticks all the boxes for today’s exigent specifiers and we’re proud to add it to our Petrarch range.
Petrarch Planx is not only visually stunning but designed with performance in mind.
