WALL POWERPANEL MODULE
INTRODUCTION
Wall Powerpanel Module uses solar photovoltaics to generate
clean energy for buildings. Once installed every kW produced by
PV has zero carbon emissions, helping to reduce environmental
impact as well as energy costs.
The module is suitable for most wall applications on new build
or refurbishment projects and has 21 enhanced efficiency
polycrystalline silicon cells in series, with 75 to 80 watts of
nominal maximum power.
BENEFITS
• Integrated bypass diodes to minimise shading effects
• Structurally-bonded aluminium fixing straps for easy installation
onto façade structures
• Available in 75 Wp or 80 Wp
• Light aluminium frame for ease of installation
• Single-source integrated wall, façade and solar PV provider
• Installed by MCS approved contractors
• Optimised, value-engineered systems for rapid installation
• Project analysis / viability, design, supply, installation, testing,
commissioning and handover service
• Generates clean, inflation proof electricity – reduces
energy costs
• Can increase the saleable / rentable value of the building
• Once installed every kW produced has zero carbon emissions,
which significantly reduces the carbon footprint
• Not dependent on fossil or nuclear fuels
• No harmful CO2
emissions
• Secret fix option only, no visible fixing

Cementitious Boards
Available in 3 options:
1. Natura Pro
• Natura Pro has a tactile, smooth surface which allows the natural variegation of the fibre cement finish to
be seen through the semi-translucent, pigmented coating.
• A UV cured top layer offers good protection against graffiti
2. Textura
• Textura combines vivid colour, texture and toughness in one fully compressed fibre cement cladding
panel. With a highly glazed, granular finish available in any factory-approved RAL colour, it is impact
resistant yet strong, light in weight and easy to use.
3. Pictura
• The new Pictura coating system incorporates an additional surface treatment for Fibre Cement panels.
• The main characteristic of this treatment is the hard, smooth, silky, matt surface.
• The UV cured top layer offers good protection against graffiti .

Cementitious Boards

TECHNICAL OVERVIEW
Cementitious boards are fibre-reinforced cement boards that
satisfy the requirements of Category A, Class 2 to BS EN 12467:
2004 (Fibre-cement flat sheets). Panels are manufactured by a
batch-blending operation, followed by the Hatchek process and
high-pressure steam autoclaving.
ProductTolerance
Boards have a thickness tolerance of +/- 10%.
Secret Fix - The extruded aluminium straps or hooks, in 6063/T6
conforming to BS EN 12020-1: 2008 grade alloy, are secured to the
boards using undercut stainless-steel expanding anchors.These are
secured to the aluminium secondary rail system using either self-
drilling / self-tapping stainless steel fasteners or hook on hangers.
The secondary rail system is securely fastened to the Benchmark
Karrier Panel with expanding self-fixing aluminium and stainless
steel fasteners.
Through Fix - The boards are secured to the aluminium rail
system using coloured aluminium rivets.The rail system is securely
fastened to the Benchmark Karrier Panel with expanding self-fixing
aluminium and stainless steel fasteners.
Fixings
For the through fix option, rivets and screws are available in the
same colour as the panel, to disguise the fixings.
Fire
The cementitious boards achieve a Class 0 to BS476 - 6: 1989
(Fire propagation for products) and BS476 - 7: 1997 (Surface
spread of flame of products) and have a European fire classification
of A2-s1, d0.

INTRODUCTION
The Wood Composite façade is a high pressure laminate cladding manufactured with a real wood veneer which exhibits all the natural
variation, warmth and beauty of real wood.
The panels are coated with a proprietary coating, based in synthetic resins and PVDF, which protect the panel from the effects of sunlight,
chemical attack (anti-graffiti) and the damage caused by atmospheric agents.
A smooth concealed fixing system can be used, and a through fix option is also available to create the desired look.
