Products

Carat Range – 27 through-coloured panels
CARAT panels are integrally colored with a transparent or pigmented acrylic top finish shade in shade. The unique natural look and the timeless beauty of the monolithic material with its delicate vein texture provide an exciting and noble expression to every building.

Reflex – 11 Colours
Also with an integrally coloured core, these high-tech panels bare an indescent surface finishing on pure acrylic base. Changing lighting and angle of vision produce fascinating nuances in the colours.

Avera – 9 colours
The dynamic manufacturing process gives Swisspearl® AVERA its incomparable, natural texture. The raw materials are blended in the process, as if in a turbulent river, and thus build the distinct, living surface optics. Swisspearl® AVERA is a genuine expression of this process. Additionally, the resulting variation in texture and colour brings out the authenticity of the mineral material. AVERA opens up surprising new possibilities for highly expressive façade design.

Incora Range – 2 Colours
Swisspearl introduce their latest innovative fibre cement cladding panel with a granulated finish. Incora comes in 2 colours: white and grey. Each panel is individual, through a vivid spreading pattern uniquely balanced of different colours. This process is achieved during the manufacturing process, when the still-moist panels are sprinkled with high-quality granulated marble that gives them a unique and dynamic look.

Nobilis Range – 16 Colours
Nobilis panels are the older range of what was previously know as Pelicolor Panels. A grey base with a coloured top coating. The semi-translucent surface coating on a pure acrylic basis provides the classic fibre cement appeals with much visual depth to the exterior facade.

Texial Range – 5 Colours
Swisspearl's latest range of fibre cement panels has a unique finish. The fine surface structure gives the appearance of a fabric, and is always one of a kind because it is embossed by hand.
