Property prices are rising but, up and down the building supply chain, there are major delays and soaring costs due to the global timber shortage. Brisbane company Gen-Eco Environmental Wood Products is taking the pressure off the building industry by offering a wide selection of sustainable solutions that are perfect for all types of construction projects.
What types of sustainable solutions does Gen-Eco offer?
Working with sustainable products is ‘cleaner and greener’ than using traditional timber. Gen-Eco Environmental Wood Products offers a wide selection of eco-friendly products, including balsa, plywood, clear ply, specialty MDF, FR aluminium beams, natural timber veneer and more. Many Gen-Eco products have the added benefit of being non-combustible, making them the ideal solution to meet any Group 1 Fire Rated design needs.
Birch Plywood – Standard
Gen-Eco’s Birch plywood is a multi-layered plywood panel manufactured from 1.5mm thick veneers which produce a panel of uniform appearance. The slow growth produces veneer that is close-grained and of a consistent high quality. Birch Plywood is suitable for wall and ceiling panels, cabinetry and joinery, shopfitting and furniture.
Birch Plywood – Jumbo 3050mm A/B Multiply
Gen-Eco’s long-grain rotary spliced veneer A/B Birch is the only long band 100% Birch Plywood available in Australia. The face and back are spliced rotary veneers. The A face of the 1220mm sheet has a maximum of 6 leaves per face whilst the 1530mm sheet has a maximum of 8 leaves. These panels are suitable for clear finished wall and ceiling panels and all joinery applications where traditional cross-banded (4 x 8) panels would be used.
Natural Timber Veneer
The process for Natural Timber Veneers (NTV) is to take a thin layer of veneer which is sliced from a log. Individual veneers are assembled into the required sheet size and then bonded to a variety of panel options. Veneered panels are available on MDF, Particleboard and Plywood on a variety of thickness options. Gen-Eco’s range is selected from natural Australian hardwoods, rustic veneers and reconstituted veneers.
Exterior MDF
Gen-Eco Exterior MDF is a medium-density fibreboard (MDF) made from select wooden fibres. These fibres are bound with formaldehyde-free (E0) PMDI glues under high pressure and temperature. Applications include outdoor kitchens, outdoor furniture, exterior wall and ceiling linings, exterior doors, flooring, skirting and window framing.
Non-combustible Versipanel
Ideal for external applications such as soffit linings and insulated wall panels, Versipanel opens a world of opportunities for architects and designers. Choose from Gen-Eco’s extensive collection of timber grains or select your own imagery via libraries such as Shutterstock.
Non-combustible FR Aluminium Beams
Gen-Eco FR Aluminium Beams are non-combustible with a melting point of 600+°C. Gen-Eco offers a wide range of timber images for aluminium ceiling beams and vertical battens. Easy to install, FR aluminium beams are the ideal solution to meet any Group 1 Fire Rated design needs. Applications include vertical and horizontal beams, ceiling fins and screens.
