The choice of Scyon wall claddings
When incorporated into a wall system and compared with other products, fibre cement is at the lower end of the scale for embodied energy and offers excellent longevity. Studies indicate that timber framed construction with timber weatherboards has the lowest embodied energy of 188MJ / sqm. and a typical timber framed brick veneer construction has 561MJ /sqm.
We decided to utilise Scyon Linea Board and Scyon Matrix panels for the majority of the claddings on our Bozier Court house - this form of construction has a minimal 212 MJ /sqm of embodied energy and offers a long life expectancy with minimal maintenance. The fibre cement is a better substrate for painting than most timber products the profiles of the linea board and matrix panel provide nice depth and definition which is lacking on its competitors products.
