Modulo® Group 1 tongue and groove board lining is an innovative extension to Screenwood’s bestselling Modulo® MR range.

Specially designed for the highest fire-rated interior environments, it presents a new, cost-effective, pre-finished solution for those seeking creative freedom to sculpt dynamic woodgrain interiors.

3 Profiles designed for creative exploration

Modulo® Group 1 features an advanced and compliant technical design for 3 profiles – Batten, Arc and Flute, each with key features:

Achieves a radius of 500mm.
Available in 2.7-metre, 3.6-metre, and 5.4-metre lengths.
Suitable for vertical, horizontal, and sculptural applications.
The profiles’ crease lines are easy to bend, allowing for curving or simple finishing to the boundary without needing costly proprietary finishes or equipment.

Modulo® Group 1 tongue and groove boards are specifically designed for interior environments requiring a Group 1 fire rating.

Fire tested in accordance with ISO 9705:2003 (R2016) and AS5637.1:2015, achieving a Group 1 certification

Watch: The difference between Modulo® Group 1 and Modulo® MR.

Modulo® Group 1 Aluminium is available pre-finished in a choice of over 30 premium NAVURBAN™ decorative surfaces.

NAVURBAN™ Range – Silken, Elements, and ultra-realistic woodgrain empowers the exploration of contemporary biophilic design trends using more natural-looking 3D textured or embossed woodgrain finishes instead of typical powder-on-powder painting.

Woodgrain pattern balances consistency without looking repeated with hand-packing to ensure the right aesthetic mix.
Superior, consistent colour matching across pre-finished Screenwood and NAVURBAN™ product surfaces.

High Quality and Durable Finish

Screenwood wraps the NAVURBAN™ non-PVC olefin decorative surface film seamlessly on the profiles.

NAVURBAN™ finishes are UV stable and stain and water-resistant, ensuring durability and longevity.

Easy Cleaning and Maintenance

Modulo® with NAVURBAN™ surfaces are easy to clean using a cloth dampened with warm water and detergent.

The system’s commercially acceptable strength is more robust than paper finishes and requires no annual maintenance such as oiling, painting or staining.

Easy and Cost-Effective Installation

Modulo® Group 1 is crafted using hollow, lightweight aluminium. It is easier to cut, carry, and curve, ensuring a faster and more cost-effective installation – no prep work required.

Easily cut to size and install using lengths that can be glued and secured with screws (concealed within the tongue and groove board).
Installation is more cost-effective using off-the-shelf top hat/furring channels and screws, eliminating the need for expensive proprietary systems.
Features easy vertical break points to accommodate various end-point finishing and curving needs.
Corner and start trims are available for a superior finish.

Ideal Interior Environments

Modulo® Group 1 is a superb choice for interior environments where strength, durability, and fire safety are paramount.

This includes hotels, clubs, retail, hospitality, education, corporate, aged care, healthcare and multi-res developments.
