Trespa Meteon Cladding Specified for NZGBC 5 Star

Trespa’s sustainability policy is the creation of high-quality and durable products; if a product is durable, it lasts longer and the environmental impact of its production is spread over a longer time.

Trespa is proud that the reference service life for Trespa Meteon panels is set at 50 years and a rating system for buildings.

Containing up to 70% natural fibres, the sustainable character of Trespa is expressed through its long-lasting performance.

Trespa Meteon is a versatile, robust and UV stable cladding for innovative and functional ventilated facade systems.

“I guess the main reason we have specified Trespa at Stonefields School has been its durability and low maintenance, in a busy primary school environment,” says Callum Dowie, Senior Associate, Jasmax.

Available in a broad range of colours, finishes, sizes and thicknesses, Trespa Meteon brings compelling aesthetics and nearly limitless design possibilities to next-generation architectural claddings.
