The new Ixina facades, clad in Fundermax panels

The transformation is well underway. Light wood is the new motif that goes together with the blue of Ixina on the store facades. The kitchen chain chose Fundermax Max Exterior panels because of the class they radiate.

Ixina's choice of Fundermax panels is an aesthetic and marketing-driven decision. The panels from the Austrian brand inspire precision, stability, and modernity.

The choice of wood

The finish that the kitchen designer has chosen is

, a light wood species resembling beech. The wood emphasizes the brand's blue and shows the color: the environment is part of the company's values. This facade design ultimately puts this into practice, because Max Exterior panels are made of 65 % natural paper fibers from FSC®- and PEFC-certified wood. These standards confirm that the wood was harvested in accordance with applicable international rules for reasoned and sustainable forestry.

Indestructible durostone panels

Fundermax exterior panels are thermosetting high-pressure laminates (HPL), produced at high pressure and temperature in laminating presses. Double-hardened polyurethane resins provide extremely effective protection against weathering. They are extremely stable and particularly suitable for balconies and durable facade cladding.

A fairly simple investment

The company chosen to install them is The Neon Company (TNC), a company specializing in visual communication and illuminated signs. Their main activity is therefore not facade cladding. However, the director, Pascal Henin, appreciates both the design freedom and the ease of use of the product. “Despite their weight, which is understandable, the panels are very quickly reassuring,” says Pascal Henin of TNC, the company responsible for the installation. “We know that the product is stable and precise, and that nothing will shift over time.” Pascal Henin, who has already clad the facades of 12 Ixina stores, adds that Fundermax panels are relatively easy to install. In his opinion, it is an excellent choice for Ixina.
