The Architectural Product Design Awards are a subset of the internationally-acclaimed Architecture Masterprize, and recognise the beauty, ingenuity, sustainability and innovative nature of ground-breaking new architectural products. 

DecoPanel®, DECO’s superior, non-combustible flat sheet aluminium cladding product and DECO’s unique QuickClick™ DecoBatten™ system have both been awarded an Honourable Mention in their category: Building Envelope and Construction Materials. 

DecoPanel® is DECO’s answer to the recent combustible cladding crisis. A powder-coated, solid aluminium, completely non-combustible cladding panel, DecoPanel® recreates the urban aesthetic of Aluminium Composite Panels (ACPs) architects love, minus the fire risk. This sleek, modern flat sheet cladding is available in an extensive range of timber-grain, concrete-look, rust-look and contemporary solid colours to suit a wide variety of design aesthetics and project requirements. It is finished in a Super Durable ™ Class 2 powder coat designed to withstand UV rays, salt spray and pollutants, and is an ideal solution for both internal wall linings and external façade panels.

With an innovative snap-together fixing system for easy installation, DecoBatten™ QuickClick™ two-piece batten system is DECO’s beautiful, long-lasting alternative to timber battens. Made from sublimated, powder coated aluminium, DecoBatten™ offers a light-weight, corrosion-resistant, fire-safe timber-look batten suitable for facades, fences, feature walls and more, minus the hassle of ongoing maintenance. The simple QuickClick™ fixing system makes DecoBatten easy to install against the front of a building without visible fixings, while the revolutionary SpaceBase™ accessory spaces battens evenly and removes the need for additional wall linings and finishings, saving significantly on time and cost.
