A Tekstur custom exterior partition was recently installed as a beautiful division between the carport and furnished patio at this private residence in Richmond, VA. The panels are 1 inch thick, with a majority of the base material cut out to create the screen, yet it still holds its structural integrity. Watch a video tour of the project here.

Durability and Waterproof Properties

One of the standout features of Tekstur's paper composite base material is its remarkable durability. Engineered with multiple layers of paper saturated in eco-resin, it creates a robust material that can withstand the harshest weather conditions, including intense sunlight, rain, and humidity. The composite material is highly resistant to warping, cracking, and impact, ensuring that the exterior screens maintain their original look and functionality for years to come. Additionally, the waterproof properties of Tekstur make it an ideal choice for exterior use, providing protection against moisture and preventing the growth of mold or mildew.

Tekstur's commitment to sustainability is evident in its base materials. The composite is primarily composed of post-consumer recycled paper, diverting waste from landfills and reducing the demand for virgin materials. By choosing Tekstur, architects, designers, and homeowners can adopt a more eco-friendly approach to construction and design.
