The technology behind the
original PPetrarch panel with
its natural riven slate surface
was developed in the 1970’s.
Through a process of
continuing product
development the range has
been extended to include
Petra rch smooth an
equivalent cladding panel with
a flat surface.
Manufactured with through
colour, Petrarch reconstituted
stone panels offer the
appearance and texture of
natural stone, slate or
terracotta in a large panel
format.
Petra rch cladding panels
have now been used
extensively for over 30 years
for internal and external
applications to new
construction projects and to
refurbish existing buildings.
The full PPetra rch range is
manufactured at our factory in
Sussex, blending natural slate
and stone fillers in a resin
binder with glass fibre
reinforcement.
Applications for PPetrarch
lightweight cladding panels
are virtually limitless, which
together with the range of
distinctive colours and
textures turn design dreams
into reality.
Petra rch panels are
waterproof, maintenance free,
highly resistant to impact and
have a class O fire rating.
Proven performance in a
range of finishes, textures and
colours ensures that in
practice PPetrarch provides a
very cost-effective alternative
to natural stones including
granite and marble.
Exposure to the extremes of
weather conditions and
temperature on actual
installations have proven the
durability of the panels, which
have endured for in excess of
30 years with little change in
physical properties.

Since their introduction into
the market in 1972, PPetrarch
cladding panels have been
consistently specified for new
building projects, frequently
for their lightweight
characteristics, always for
their good looks and
durability.
The robust performance
characteristics make
Petra rch the right choice
for schools, leisure
centres and recreation
facilities as well as for city
centre commercial
developments.
The combination of light
weight and strength in both
7mm and 10mm formats make
Petra rch an ideal choice to
complement and provide relief
and expression to more
conventional glazing and
cladding materials in a wide
range of proprietary curtain
walling and rainscreen
applications.

Petrarch is ideal for use on
wall panelling to lobbies, in
reception and foyer areas,
executive offices, as screens
and office partitioning and in
corridors or lifts.
The PPetrarch range has been
used as an important element of
corporate design for multiple
retail fit outs and refurbishment.
Externally, applications include
cladding to masonry walls,
timber and steel-framed
construction, as curtain walling,
spandrels, fascias, facades,
mansard roofs, soffits, balconies
and shop fronts.
Petra rch has been used
extensively in shopfitting as
fascias, pilasters and stall risers.

PPetrarch are high quality, extremely durable, decorative, lightweight-cladding panels used externally and internally for
new construction and to overclad existing finishes. Being extremely durable and light-weight, they offer advantages over
natural stone, slate, and precast concrete, including ease of handling and saving on fixings and other structural costs
including foundations.

Petrarch standard finish is
non-absorbent and in the
standard finish is highly
resistant to most graffitti, paint
or other marking substances
can be easily removed from
the surface of the panels with
soap and water or the
appropriate solvents. Anti
graffiti options are available
for non-standard finishes.
The performance and physical properties of PPetrarch,
particularly flexural strength and weight combined in a
factory fabricated panel provides total compatibility with
proprietary or customised curtain wall systems and
interfaces naturally with glazing and other components.
Petrarch is non-absorbent
and in the standard finish is
resistant to most graffiti. Anti
graffiti options are available
for non-standard finishes and
for areas at high risk.

Petrarch panels are produced in a range of solid colours including Jade, Heather, Graphite, Parchment, Lightstone,
Pewter, Limestone, Alabaster, Aluminum, and three Terracotta colours plus a range of marbled multi coloured finishes
including Arizona, Ash, Mocha, Salmon, Russet, Mojave, Dorset, Dover, Portland and Rye.
Many existing non-standard colours are available and special colours can be developed for specific projects subject to
quantity. All colours are available in a choice of finishes with either a riven or a smooth face format.
Petra rch Riven reproduces the surface of the original riven slate master and is available with a standard or matt finish.
Petra rch SSmooth has a flat surface and is available with a standard, matt, or honed finish.
Choice of texture with the Riven or smooth surface adds a tactile dimension to product selection, by designating the
surface finish and patternation, the colours gain additional character and depth:

For a product sample card, colour chart or a larger sample of a specific colour or texture please contact our Hastings
office. Other colours are available on request and we can create bespoke finishes to match specific requirements.
Note: Because of the very high natural stone content slight shade variations will always exist and are seen to add to the
natural stone-like qualities of this range of products.
