The new club house and training complex at Melbourne’s Princes Park, home of the Carlton Football Club, has been constructed with an outer facade and high exterior walls made from Kingspan’s architectural wall panels finished in a stylish mini-rib profile.
William Ross Architects specified Kingspan’s wall panels for their professional appearance and for their internal liner, which provides a prefinished surface and requires no further treatment once installed.
Architect Steve Maxwell, who oversaw the project, says one of the attractions of Kingspan’s wall panels was that they exceed the Building Code of Australia standards for thermal insulation. The high thermal performance and low air leakage potential of the Kingspan panels allow for more effective use of HVAC plant, which in turn reduces the consumption of energy.
