Product catalog summary

Overview of Riko Façades
The Riko house exterior can be customized with various façade types chosen by the client. These façades not only enhance the visual appeal but also protect the structural units from environmental factors like wind, rain, and solar radiation. Proper selection and treatment ensure long-term satisfaction.

Wooden Façades
Wooden façades are versatile, suitable for both residential and larger buildings. They are categorized by tree type, profile, and attachment method. Wood, being a natural material, requires treatment to prevent aging and decay. Larch wood is preferred for its natural resistance and self-protective characteristics, forming an oxidizing layer that protects against external influences. Spruce wood is used for dyed façades due to its ease of treatment, while cedar wood is valued for its rich color.

Types and Installation
Wooden façades vary by form and can be installed horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. They are attached using methods like "tongue and groove," partial covering, or open façades with air gaps.
