A composition of stacked cross-folds

Panels consist of layers crossed at 90° and glued together. 

Each layer is composed of an alternation :

  • butted and planed wooden strips, rectangular in section, parallel to each other, the number and spacing of which depend on mechanical requirements 
  • strips of insulating filling occupying the free space between the wooden strips; 
  • and a structure equivalent to a structural wooden lattice

Réhabilitation énergétique et modernisation des façades de l’immeuble ALBERO - PANOBLOC®

Réhabilitation énergétique et modernisation des façades de l’immeuble ALBERO (ancien siège d’Europcar) composé de 3 tours (10 000 m2 SHON – R+6 à 5+10) comprenant notamment le remplacement des façades existantes par des façades bois (Panobloc) ainsi que la réalisation d’un nouvel auvent.

La finition des façades (cassettes aluminium) est particulièrement soignée pour cet ouvrage très visible qui crée l’image publique du projet afin de maintenir une image durable, sans décoloration, corrosion ou autre dégradation visuelle des composants.
