Materials and supply chain ## Red Viroc, charred pine and red-framed Reynaers glazing. The red panels are Viroc, a cement-bonded particle board. Colour-matched stainless-steel screws and gaskets let the fixings read as part of the panel, and aluminium flashings close its edges. The black cladding is PEFC-certified, thermally modified Scots pine: Thermopine boards with an embossed charred-effect surface and black Woca oil, and projecting Lunawood fins that break the face into shadow lines. Heat treatment makes the timber durable outdoors without chemical preservative. It hangs as an open rainscreen on concealed FinFix brackets, so no fixing shows on the face. Divetro fabricated the windows and doors in thermally broken Reynaers systems: MasterLine 8 HI for the fixed, tilt-and-turn and bottom-hung windows and entrance doors, CF 77 HI for the two four-panel folding door sets, and a bespoke oriel window. Argon-filled solar-control low-e glazing keeps heat in and limits summer gain. The frames are powder-coated matt red to answer the Viroc. - Viroc board: Vivalda - Timber, fins and concealed fixings: Russwood - Reynaers windows and doors: Divetro - Flashings: Elite Aluminium Fabrications - Facade fixings and gaskets: Mainline Products UK ## The charred timber, close in Thermopine boards and Lunawood fins run from the brick plinth to the eaves on three sides of the house, with the Reynaers windows and folding doors set flush into them. ![Close view of black charred timber boards and fins with a horizontal red-framed window set into them](https://dmitrodevelopment.co.uk/assets/projects/newlands-road-woodford-green/newlands-road-woodford-green-black-charred-timber-boards-fins-horizontal-fallback.jpg) 06 · A low letterbox window, framed in red, in the side wall.
