Aquatic Recreation Centre – WA – Equitilt Flameguard

The Solution

Bondor’s Equitilt® FlameGuard® non-combustible walling was recently used extensively on the $109 million Aquatic Recreation Centre and Dockers training facility located in Cockburn, WA. Equitilt® FlameGuard® architectural panels were fabricated using a premium metallic Colorbond® finish and functioned as a non-combustible (AS1530.1) wall cladding combined with high thermal performance achieved through Bondor’s innovative mineral wool cored wall panel. Equitilt® wall cladding created an exceptional architectural feature around all the function areas, offices and six basketball courts and aquatic facilities.

Narellan Town Centre

The Challenges

The Narellan Town Centre, located in New South Wales, is the new hot spot for shopping, food, and entertainment in Narellan. With a three-year construction timeline, the Narellan Town Centre had a total size of 72,000 sqm to work with. The final product was designed to provide as a modern meeting place for the community, with a stunning façade to attract locals.

The Solution

MetecnoInspire® panelling was installed on the largescale shopping centre, Narellan Town Centre, with builders noting how much quicker it was to install when compared to corative composite facades. MetecnoInspire® panels provide excellent thermal properties and minimal structural support, with little or no fabrication prior to placement on the wall, leading to faster install times and lower labour costs. The project architect said “The design of the architectural façade is intended to give Narellan Town Centre a modern expression with clean lines and restrained articulation. Selecting the right building product was essential. MetecnoInspire® offered us an inspiring palette of colours that was enduring and respectful to the surrounding urban fabric, yet at the same time rejuvenated and repositioned Narellan as a new town centre”.

381 Macarthur Avenue

The Challenges

FlameGuard® decorative architectural non-combustible wall cladding was chosen for the exterior walls of the corporate office campus, 381 Macarthur Avenue, Hamilton. The three-level building has been purpose-built to maximise light penetration for those seeking an A-grade office space.

The Solution

FlameGuard® was the walling product of choice for this project due to its excellent insulation attributes, but also for its fire-resistant ability. It is ideal for projects such as 381 said that the Non-Combustible Cladding FlameGuard’s® compliance with QBCC requirements made it a strong contender.

But what made FlameGuard® stand out from other options was the aesthetic finish that complemented the other gorgeous architectural features of the project. With the project size of 2700 sqm, Greystone Builders utilised FlameGuard’s® Non-Combustible Cladding to ensure the longevity of the building, where architectural compromise did not have to be made.
