NORTO Bech

Product description

NORTO Bech is a sustainable wall covering made of residual wood. The raw wood comes from untreated solid pine planks. The wooden slats have milled grooves and tongues on the sides and ends, which makes the installation much easier and faster. Each wooden panel is 2500 mm long, 205 mm wide and 17,7 mm thick.
Since NORTO Bech is a covering made of residual wood, dark dents, small holes for glue and other minor defects may appear on the planks. In addition, pine becomes darker over time because wood is a “living” natural material, that “continuously” acts within its natural development process.

Fire-resistant wooden coverings

NORTO Bech obtained the K1 10, D-s2,d0 fire certificate as one of the few brands of wooden panels on the market. They have been approved and tested in accordance with European fire safety requirements and standards. The NORTO Bech fire-certification meets the Danish requirements in accordance with current building regulations. The D-s2, d0 fire certificate, which is an attestation for the release of smoke and heat, is of great importance, as smoke is the most critical hazard during the spread of fire. K1 10 is a fire certificate for the fire reaction and firing of the material itself. Fire certificates only apply to private dwellings (not public buildings).
Please note that it is important to follow the steps in the installation instructions to ensure, that the wooden covering is properly fitted to the fire requirements.

If a higher fire class (class 1) is desired, the NORTO Bech panels can be fire-impregnated or surface-treated with fire-retardant paint. Contact NORTO on telephone +45 96101522 or write to mail@norto.dk to hear more about the possibilities.
