Form, function & finish with Vecta building linings
Encasement’s Vecta building linings provide a comprehensive bespoke finishing system for use on a broad range of interior and exterior projects.
Building linings can perform several functions but specifications usually focus around their ability to improve aesthetics or provide a practical solution to a specific requirement, such as protecting interior walls in high traffic areas or concealing building services and structural elements.
To meet these diverse requirements, the Vecta range covers several different product groups, incorporating wall linings and lift lobby linings, as well as reveals, soffit linings and bulkheads. As their specifications will depend on factors, such as aesthetics, performance requirements and the building’s use, a choice of materials is available within the range.
For example, metal or compact laminate wall linings are widely used on projects in the education, health, commercial, hotel & leisure sectors, as well as transport, retail and public buildings, for reasons of durability and the choice of finishes available.
While usually specified for interior applications, some Vecta metal solutions, such as soffit linings and external bulkheads, are also designed for use on external projects, as they are inherently weather resistant. They can also incorporate PPC finishes in almost any RAL colour, which can help add exterior interest or branding to a building.
Vecta building lining solutions are fully bespoke manufactured to meet individual project dimensions and specifications, but to assist with their selection for different applications, Encasement has segmented them into three core product groups.
Lift lobby linings
A fundamental part of many commercial interiors, lift lobby linings help convey the character and style of a building by integrating with its overall design scheme. Similar to wall linings, a wide range of materials and finishes can be specified to provide increased design versatility for projects where aesthetics are a primary consideration.
Wall linings
Suitable for use in both interior and exterior applications where decorative or protective solutions are required, Vecta wall linings are ideal for environments where there are high levels of pedestrian traffic, such as transport hubs, retail or commercial buildings, to resist damage to internal walls.
Aluminium and stainless steel are commonly specified, although compact laminates are also widely used, as the almost limitless choice of laminate colours and textured finishes provides an extensive range of specification options. However, the material specification is highly dependent on each application and whether it is an interior or exterior location.
Bulkheads, soffits & reveals
Whether the requirement is for extensive services bulkheads, practical and decorative soffits or stylish lift reveals, Vecta provides a range of versatile and adaptable solutions.
Manufactured primarily from brushed or PPC aluminium as well as stainless steel, they are widely used to combine durable and decorative finishes with practical functionality, such as concealing building services, pipework or mechanical and electrical components.
