Fibre cementFibre cement is a mineral composite material with outstanding aesthetic and physical properties.

Our company has led development and innovation of this architectural material for over a century under different brand names such as “Eternit”.

Today, EQUITONE facade materials are manufactured in state-of-the art facilities in Germany and Belgium.

AuthenticityCement, cellulose and mineral materials, reinforced by a visible matrix. Nothing else! EQUITONE fibre cement is a natural composite material that proudly shows its authentic personality.

Performance EQUITONE fibre cement exists in very large sheets (up to 3m x 1.25m) that are very thin yet have outstanding physical properties. EQUITONE fibre cement is non-combustible (A2 EUROclass). EQUITONE has a life expectancy exceeding 50 years in the most demanding exterior applications.

Sustainability Facades constructed with EQUITONE fibre cement are thin and lightweight, causing minimum depletion of raw materials.

EQUITONE offers full transparency on the environmental footprint of the materials in the environmental product declarations (EPDs), published on www.europanels.be.

Ventilated facadeOriginated in Scandinavia centuries ago, the ventilated facade (rainscreen) technique is now very prominent in areas with demanding climatic conditions. In the rainscreen system, the outer panel deflects rain and sun heat away from the building. The ventilation space allows air to freely circulate behind the panel, creating a well ventilated and comfortable inner building.

Versatility The ventilated facade construction principle combines the scalability of curtain wall construction with the creative versatility and adaptability offered by traditional building techniques.

Less is more A ventilated facade system has minimal thickness and weight, yet it offers maximum performance.

Healthy The ventilated facade construction principle avoids cold bridges, eliminating condensation and mould growth.
