Certified Fire Retardant Timber Linings from Supawood

Supawood certified fire retardant timber linings
co-ordinated for prized building

A mix of SUPAWOOD timber panel products feature extensively throughout many areas of The Australian PlantBank, an important science and research facility in the Australian Botanic Garden at Mt Annan NSW.

This building is a plant conservation resource and part of the Royal Botanical Gardens and Domain Trust. Its main purpose is to ensure the preservation of Australian native plant species, housing the seedbank, associated research laboratories and learning centre.

To ensure materials used reflected the building's conservation purpose, the designers BVN Donavan Hill wanted the timber lining products used to conform to the highest sustainability and fire retardant certification. The SUPAWOOD product range offered both these stringent requirements plus the mix of co-ordinated timber linings they required to complement their design.

Supawood were able to co-ordinate the supply of their SUPACOUSTIC acoustic panels, SUPALINE decorative panels and SUPASLAT slatted sections in the same FSC®/PEFC certified veneer species and finish coating with all three lining products meeting the Fire Group 3 required.
