Fire-resistant slats with aesthetic bamboo foil

A multifunctional accommodation (MFA) in Utrecht, designed as a high-tech spaceship, was renovated. This was done because the indoor climate, air quality and acoustics no longer met current standards after the building was put into use in 2006. Now, after the renovation, the building has a healthy indoor living environment again, the acoustics have been improved and the accommodation has become future proof. Wiggers' role? Allow us to explain.

Brandwerende latten met esthetische bamboefolie

Customised assembly

Wiggers developed the various elements for the stairs, walls and ceiling. For this purpose we made slats, sheathed with a bamboo foil specially made according to the architect's wishes. Modified solid wood has been used as the basic material, which has been impregnated to guarantee the desired fire resistance. Because safety comes first! In the factory we made grilles that were prefabricated and delivered to the construction site, including recesses for, among other things, LED lighting.

Quick and easy to install

These slats with bamboo foil are not only a sustainable choice, but also an aesthetic one. The lightweight and durable product has renewed the appearance of the building. The slats were custom made, including a recessed LED bar where necessary, allowing the client to install them quickly and easily.
