The web that offers everything you need to know to buy phenolic cabins

By Architecture, Construction, Decoration, News No Comments
From the start of the design of a building for public use, you know that you will need to offer toilets and that you need to install phenolic cabins to provide the best material. Phenolic cabins are the best product for the toilets as they resist humidity, shocks, intensive use and dirt. For these reasons, phenolic cabins, along with phenolic lockers, phenolic worktops and phenolic benches comprise the phenolic furniture used by builders, architects and interior designers. When buying phenolic cabins, a professional needs to know all the information about this type of product. Spigogroup has a division specialising in the manufacture and assembly of phenolic furniture called Spigocompac. There, we have served hundreds of annual orders for phenolic cabins, phenolic lockers, phenolic worktops and phenolic benches for years. Now we want to reinforce all the information we offer on phenolic sports furniture from the Spigocompac website with a new site specially dedicated to phenolic cabins. Here you can better understand the advantages of using this type of product, the colours available for finishes, the most common combinations of modules and all the solutions, fittings and complements to make up the set of phenolic cabins that best meets the needs of each project. In addition, you can also download the PDF version of the details of Spigocompac Phenolic Cabins with a graphic summary of all the information needed to buy phenolic cabins. .

The 7 advantages of using wood panelling in your project interiors

By Acoustics, Architecture, Construction, Decoration, News, Spigogroup wood projects No Comments
The use of wood panelling in the interior of buildings is as old as the history of architecture and construction. Despite the appearance of a large number of new, top-performing materials for construction and decoration, wood remains among the first options for most architects, engineers, decorators and interior designers. Following we reveal the 7 advantages of using wood panelling for interiors: . It is natural and ancestral: it takes us back to natural constructions which were used by mankind: hollows in tree trunks, the interior of the great shrubs or the natural wood ceilings formed by intertwining tree branches. It is recyclable, ecological and renewable (it naturally regenerates itself), and also reusable. In addition there is wood available in the market with certifications such as PEFC or FSC that guarantee that the material used for the highest-quality wood panelling for interiors, such as that supplied by Spigogroup, comes from sustainably and environmentally-friendly managed forests. It provides elegance and warmth, and it is timeless. It never goes out of style. It is always liked. It is highly resistant to shocks, tremors and the passage of time. At present, wood panelling for interiors is treated so that it is one of the most wear-resistant materials available. Insulation: wood provides the best natural thermal and acoustic insulation, that is why wood panelling is so used so often in acoustic conditioning in interiors. It is a living material: natural wood adapts and changes with the passage of time. It creaks and emits sounds that will be part of the soundtrack of your life. It smells of nature and adapts to the weather and the passage of time It is a material with future: there are more and more treatments for optimising wood performance in construction and decoration. In addition, we are already experimenting with integrating wood panelling in interiors using digital technologies. (See “Decorative wood panels of the future… Will they be our next television?” ) . .

Soundproofing doors: Standard size and how to make your own measurements

By Acoustics, Architecture, Construction, Decoration, News No Comments
Most of the advances in the construction world seek to improve the comfort of people who will live, work or, even sporadically, make use of, a building. When describing a space, thermal comfort, accessibility, safety and, more and more, acoustic comfort arise as part of applicable criteria. Thus, acoustic conditioning and soundproofing in buildings are increasingly more widespread, and so is the use of acoustic doors, also called soundproofed doors or soundproofing doors. At Spigogroup and Spigodoor (our technical doors division) we are experts in doors for soundproofing or acoustic doors. Our range of acoustic doors includes the standard size most in demand by the market with a height of 2030 mm and widths of 425, 525, 625, 725, 825 and 925 mm. But at Spigogroup we are manufacturers and we can take orders with special sizes made to the requirements of each project.   .     When ordering doors for acoustic insulation, you must indicate the actual measures of the openings of each door. It is important to take real measures of the openings instead of ordering from project dimensions, as variations are quite common. We need three measurements: 1.- The inner distance of the door lining 2.- The thickness of the partition or wall 3.- The distance between the horizontal stretch of the door lining and the floor   .

Curved wood walls and curved wood ceilings – Sizes and finishes

By Acoustics, Architecture, Construction, Decoration, News, Spigogroup wood projects No Comments
Wood is a flexible material that can be shaped into curved pieces employing the appropriate technique. Wood is normally used in flat panels, both in wood ceilings and in wood panelling for walls. However, the aesthetic requirements of some projects include design ceilings which require manufacturing and installing walls and curved wood ceilings. The visual result is certainly impressive. When, in addition, these curved wood ceilings are made with sound-absorbent wood panels they also help the acoustic conditioning of spaces, and the value of these wood ceilings doubles. At Spigoacustic, Spigogroup's division dedicated to the manufacture of sound-absorbent wood panelling, we can manufacture curved wood ceilings. Spigoacustic has dozens of models of acoustic panels to choose from according to the acoustic conditioning needs of the space in question. The Spigoacustic standard sizes of acoustic panels for curving is 2400 x 300 mm, both for walls and ceilings. Available finishes are the same as for flat wall panelling and wood ceilings: melamine, finished in varnished natural wood, MDB with different colour finishes, lacquers and high pressure laminates (HPL). Do you require curved wood walls and wood ceilings for your project? Call us and we will tell you how you can do it.   .
