Parklex is manufactured in Spain and ship in 4' by 8' sheets. Northshore sizes and drills the material on CNC equipment locally for a perfect fit. The installation style is open joint rainscreen. These products feature a real wood veneer on a Phenolic core. The wood face is protected by a UV resistant layer and is warranted for a decade.
Copper is the quintessential architectural sheet metal. The job in the photos is a good example of copper in its early stages of patina, exhibiting a warm appearance. Eventually (15-30 years in the Seattle climate) it will develop a green oxidation layer and become essentially inert. If you are impatient, pre-patinated copper is available, for that natural green look from day one. We can fabricate and install any copper configuration you desire.
The building shown above features Reynobond XXL, superwide ACM which is an aluminum faced composite panel. The joints are created by routing and returning the panel edges around an extruded aluminum attachment system. Northshore sizes the panels on CNC equipment locally in order to assure the best possible alignment based on field conditions.
Northshore fabricates and installs systems from the following manufacturers:
Composite panels are typically fabricated and installed in one of the (2) principle rainscreen configurations.
