10 year warranty
The Ever Art Wood® Series comes with a 10-year manufacturer’s warranty for outdoor applications. In contrast to real timber, Covet’s timber look aluminium battens won’t split, warp, expand or fade, require no intensive maintenance or surface preservation and are not vulnerable to insect attack or mould damage.
Ever Art Wood® is built to withstand environments that would pose a challenge for real wood, such as continuous outdoor exposure, high humidity, and marine environments.
Easy Installation
With multiple batten and screen fixing systems, Ever Art Wood® aluminium cladding systems are designed to be light, precise and dimensionally true for ease of installation
Sustainability
The Ever Art Wood® range is composed of aluminium and is designed to have a long life cycle, with little to no maintenance. Unlike timber, aluminium is a virtually unlimited resource and is a 100% recyclable material that retains its properties. Our products are made to order, resulting in no excess production resources. All panels and battens are cut to length in Japan. Where possible, cuts that can be salvaged are repurposed.
At Covet, we manage complex logistics to ensure multiple projects are consolidated into container lots (including sampling) to minimise our carbon footprint, as well as delivering direct to site to reduce overall freight mileage and energy consumption in warehousing and double handling.
Fade Resistance
Ever Art Wood® is an extremely durable, exterior-grade timber look cladding system, designed to retain its beautiful finish for many years. Specifiers can confidently specify a timber look finish and asset owners can have a virtually maintenance-free timber façade.
Our products have been subjected to one of the toughest accelerated exposure tests on the market for colour fastness. Ever Art Wood® has been specifically designed to outlast wood and retain its shape and colour, even after years of exposure to aggressive environmental and weather conditions.
Marine Environments
An infinitely more viable option than genuine timber, Ever Art Wood® performs well in coastal locations where it will be exposed to wind, fog, salt, rain and the harsh Australian sun. Covet’s aluminium wood look cladding has been subjected to an independent salt fog test to evaluate resistance to atmospheric corrosion. The results of the test prove the product’s suitability for use in corrosive and aggressive environments, with the assessment revealing nil change overall and absence of common corrosion characteristics including blistering, base metal corrosion, loss or adhesion or any other abnormalities.
Light Reflectance Value (LRV)
Covet Ever Art Wood® aluminium wood look cladding provides a highly versatile, low LRV option suitable for external façade applications. LRV acts as an important safety guideline when measuring glare or reflectivity for exterior finishings, which is becoming increasingly important in urban settings.
