Solution:

The project utilised VitraPanel architectural façade panels, manufactured from Australian compressed fibre cement and factory-finished in Sydney using A&I Coatings VITREFLON ® V700 FEVE fluoropolymer technology.
This combination delivers outstanding UV resistance, long-term colour retention, and low maintenance performance—ideal for public education infrastructure.

Colours used (V700):

• Deduction – R10337-2
• Desert Pear – R10337-7
• Malay Grey – R10426-4
• Thicket – R10337
• Milton Moon – R10222-8

The result is a visually engaging façade with strong architectural presence and excellent durability.

Key Benefits:

• Unlimited solid colour and metallic options
• Excellent UV and weathering resistance
• Inherent anti-graffiti properties
• Low lifetime maintenance costs
• Suitable for external and internal wall applications

The synergy between VitraPanel and V700 enhances both aesthetics and
long-term performance, ensuring the school’s exterior remains vibrant and
protected for years to come.

Project Outcome:

The use of VitraPanel combined with the V700 FEVE fluoropolymer coating
delivered a façade solution that performs as well as it looks.

A&I’s V700 coating provides a stable, crosslinked finish that will not degrade over time, supporting the school’s long-term asset performance goals. The result is a visually distinctive, durable façade system that enhances the architectural intent while delivering proven reliability. 

Northbourne Public School demonstrates how the VitraPanel and A&I Coatings V700 system can provide a future-ready façade solution— combining aesthetics, durability, and sustainability for modern public infrastructure.

End Result:

A durable, low-maintenance façade solution supporting bright futures— inside and out.
