What is Avara™ Prime

Avara™ Prime uses a laminated construction to improve stability across the width of the board and deliver a more uniform grain. This reduces movement in service and ensures reliable on-site performance, making it well suited to projects where precision and consistency are critical.

Textures

Avara™ Prime can be machined with a range of surface textures that interact particularly well with the vertical grain appearance created by the laminated construction.

Colour & Coatings

Avara™ Prime can be supplied untreated or factory coated depending on the visual outcome required. Coating systems can introduce colour tones, slow the weathering process, or provide additional surface protection. The appropriate system will depend on whether the design intent is a natural weathered façade or a maintained architectural colour finish.

Colours shown on screen are representative only and may vary depending on screen settings, timber grain and coating application. Physical samples should be reviewed before making final colour selections.

Profiles

Avara™ Prime can be machined into a range of architectural cladding profiles including classic, shadow gap and other contemporary formats. Profile selection influences the shadow detail, board spacing and overall rhythm of the façade.

On-site Workability

Avara™ Prime is designed for efficient on-site installation. The laminated construction produces straight, stable boards that are easy to align and fix, helping installers achieve accurate spacing and clean façade lines. Boards can be cut, drilled and detailed using standard woodworking tools. See the installation page for fixing methods and detailing.

Beyond Cladding

Avara® Prime is well suited to applications where a consistent, refined finish is required. Typical uses include slatted facades, screening elements, sauna elements inside and out and internal panelling, where clean lines and repeatable board layouts are important.

The laminated format allows these applications to be achieved with a more controlled and uniform appearance across the installation.
