Terracotta shades have become very popular and Powdertech Corby has many such shades in its Landscape™ and Evolution™ ranges. “The designers were keen to make a statement with the village properties and to impart a warm and welcoming feeling for the first year students,” said Richard Besant, Powdertech Director, “The appealing, warm and eye-catching finish is a marked improvement on the outdated existing buildings.”

In line with all architectural powders used by Powdertech, Cracked Clay meets the Reaction to Fire Standards for fire classification A2-s1,d0, suitable for use on multi-storey residential buildings. The finish also has a 25 year guarantee for gloss, colour and adhesion and Powdertech's rigorous pre-treatment system will help to keep the panelling free from corrosion for up to 40-years.
