Entrance building

Trespa International, Entrance building 

When it came time to build a new entrance building at our production site in Weert, we used our favourite building material: ours. We asked architect Sanne van der Berg to create a visually striking building where employees and visitors could change from their street clothes to access the laboratory or the manufacturing centre. The architect used two decors from Pura® NFC by Trespa to create a beautiful piece of architecture that conveys volume through saturated dark colours. “The inset stands for the building’s inner skin, and the material’s warm wood colour accentuates the entrance,” van der Berg explained. She achieved this balanced effect by using the richly saturated colour of Pura PU22 Slate Ebony to give the façade mass, with an inlay of Pura PU08 Romantic Walnut to create a highlight. 

We’re looking forward to years of making a great first impression - with no upkeep needed! As the video shows, the installation was a snap. The siding’s relatively low weight makes it easy to lift into place and adapting it is simple; all you have to do is cut it. The edges don’t need sealing and the rich tones go all the way through. The colour-matched accessories make for an overall stunning result!
