Information

LATONIT fiber cement facade panels can be manufactured both smooth, and having "wood grain" texture, painted in colors in RAL & NSC palettes. The finish coating of the panel can be made with gloss or flat protective varnish. The water-based paint and varnish compositions, safe for health and the environment, are used in the process of painting of the fiber cement boards

LATO offers unique service: precision guided sawing and drilling of LATONIT fiber cement boards by the design sizes of the customer. Sawing is carried out in factory environment on the specialized equipment. After cutting the surface of a cut and holes of the fiber cement boards are covered with hydrophobic solution and paint of the corresponding color.

Structure of the fiber cement is a factor which determines the high physical and mechanical properties of this excellent construction material.
How is the internal structure of the fiber cement formed, and what does it depend on?

Frost resistance of the fiber cement board is a capacity of the material water-saturated to withstand repeated freezings with the subsequent thawing without great strength reduction and visible signs of failure.

Maximum load that the bearing furring should be calculated on depends on the weight of siding panels. It is simple to calculate the weight of one square meter of the mounted fiber cement siding.

When projecting the hinged ventilated facade it is important to know the sizes of facing panels, their thickness and possible options. For example, panels of the bigger size allow reducing quantity of joints, so, to reduce complexity and cost of a subsystem.

Question about the weight of the fiber cement facade panel is one of the most often asked. The choice of a subsystem of the hinged ventilated facade and sometimes even the choice of the facing material depend on the weight of the panel.
