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