Designer Profile

Everything about the Designer Profile for TEMPAWOOD is inline and identical to our WOOD ELEMENTS range. Tempawood is simply an additional species which can be custom coated to suit ones style. Collective features include; a straight-line edging process to ensure the cladding is machined to a fine tolerance; relief grooves which are designed to take the stress out of the cladding; a specially designed ridge locater connects with the overlap line controlling the expansion allowance for any timber movement.

Designer Trim

WOOD ELEMENTS trims provide a streamline finish and play an integral part in ensuring a water tight finish. All aluminium trims are factory fitted with waterproof gaskets*, designed to decrease the on-site sealing process, and delivery of loose materials. WOOD ELEMENTS trims are available in a black powder coated chromate treated aluminium.

Design Points

WOOD ELEMENTS is a natural product, a renewable resource, providing an environmental advantage over common building materials. Timber will only perform within the limits of its natural properties, when specifying, it’s critical that the characteristics and properties of the timber are considered and determine how they will respond to the environment they are placed in.

End Matched

WOOD ELEMENTS end-match profile has a micro bevel edge designed to encourage water to drain away from the join. End matching the product means the boards can be fixed mid cavity batten, eliminating the need to dock and create volumes of waste that previously would have been thrown away.

Automatic Spacing System

This allows expansion to be placed between the boards, which is automatic and doesn’t require any special tools or spacers to get right. This unique design feature takes out any pressure caused if the boards expand due to absorption of moisture.

WOOD ELEMENTS timber is air dried for up to 12 months to bring the moisture content down to “fibre” saturation. From this point the timber is kiln dried. This produces a finished product with a very narrow moisture variation.

Straight Line Dressed

Hurfords uses a process to straighten boards post drying to ensure the boards are straight and stay straight. This ensures that WOOD ELEMENTS can be easily installed and all shadowlines remain as they have been designed – straight.

A plantation pine that exceeds performance in exterior applications as a result of the timber being naturally treated with high temperatures and very little oxygen. This alters the wood removing resins and food sources for mould and insects. The heat treatment removes the need for any chemicals to be used making it safer for humans and the environment.
Extreme care has been taken in all aspects of Hurford’s Refined Architectural Hardwood Cladding. From the environment to milling and drying, profile and trim design and species selection. Each element plays an important role in the performance of the cladding system.
