A major construction and refurbishment programme at Southampton General Hospital has seen a number of key buildings given a fresh outlook thanks to Trespa® Meteon® façade panels.

Architects Studio Four have worked with Trespa on a number of previous projects and knew that the company’s Trespa® Meteon® panels would prove ideal for Southampton General.

Trespa International B.V. will be present at BATIMAT 2013, which will take place at the Paris Nord Villepinte Exhibition Centre in France from 04-08th of November.  BATIMAT is one of the largest tradeshows in the construction and architectural business with more than 3,500 exhibitors and 400,000 visitors from all over the world.

The second issue of Think Trespa Magazine, the worldwide publication on excellence and meaningful ventilated façades, is out and focuses on sustainability and natural materials.

In this number, learn about the Trespa’s sustainability policy, its commitment to reduce its impact on the environment and the availability of the entire Trespa® Meteon® range with PEFCTM or FSCTM certification upon request, in restricted quantities and jurisdictions.

Trespa International B.V., a leading developer of innovative and high quality panels for cladding and decorative façades, exhibited at MADE Expo 2013 in Milan, Italy, from 02-05th of October.  MADE is one of the largest trade shows in Europe that focuses on the construction and architecture industry.

Located at Hall 1, stand B20, Trespa introduced to the Italian market the New Natural Touch selection, which features the recently developed Matt finish, a new range of Naturals decors and six new Wood Decors that enrich the existing Trespa® Meteon® panel range.

Trespa Belux has partnered with Tender2 by Royal Botania, a luxurious and ephemeral pop-up hotel installed at the beach of Knokke-Heist in Belgium.

Designed by architects Patrick Dumont and Patrick Sterkx, the façade of this two-storey concept suite captures the nature of  its surroundings by using Trespa® Meteon® panels. Shaped as hexagons and turned 60°, the panels have different reflections according to the sunlight.

Trespa has a long track record as a leading innovator in the field of architectural materials and has a strong commitment to sustainability.

The company works closely with architects, designers, installers, distributors and end users to ensure all its products not only meet the requirements of each individual project, but also maintain Trespa’s credentials as an environmentally aware manufacturer.

Evoking the Japanese craftsmanship tradition, PeLiDesign has carefully designed for Trespa the KATABA table. This elegant and beautiful table features an uni colour HPL top that is connected through a snap-mechanism to its stylish legs made of wood.

Initially created in white, the top of the KATABA table is available in different finishes thanks to the rich colour pallets offered by Trespa and its Italian sister company, Arpa.

Trespa presented its new range at BAU Munich 2013 (14-19 January 2013) in an unusual booth designed by Trespa Studio.

Facade intervention for the XVIII Architecture Biennale 2012 of the eastern front elevation of the Estación Mapocho Cultural Center in Santiago de Chile.

This architectural intervention hosts the reception program and establishes a limit between the exterior plaza and the general mounting of the exhibit, generating a threshold and limiting three entrances to just one. These volumes were cladded  with Trespa® Meteon® panels, creating a variation of color that gives a third dimension to the intervention.
