ECOLEGNO
ECO-SUSTAINABLE
Ecolegno by Saimex, is an outdoor composite wood and eco-sustainable product, deriving 100% from recycled material and FSC 100% recyclable.
It is used for the poolside, restaurant floors, terraces, sea walkways, gazebos and ventilated façades.
ZERO MAINTENANCE
Wpc innovative products are increasingly widespread in tourist resorts and public places with high numbers of visitors thanks to the reduction of maintenance costs.
Ecolegno by Saimex is presented in an elegant wood grain finish, striped, wide lines which create sober and refined environments.
The composite wood remains elegant and unaltered over time, it is water resistant, does not age, and does not require oils and maintenance. It cannot be attacked by mould and bacteria, is weather resistant and does not crack or splinter like wood, which makes it particularly suitable for outdoor environments. It does not overheat like stone and saves time and costs.
COMPOSITION
The success of Ecolegno by Saimex is due to a special composition of fibres, wood powders and a 100% recyclable high-density polymer which is used in food packaging.
QUALITY CERTIFICATES AND BENEFITS
Ecolegno has passed all the tests required by European legislation.
During the testing, the material’s response to various temperature peaks and changes became a focus. It resists sudden heat shocks from -30 ° to +100 ° and high temperatures up to 60° without cracking or twisting.
Ecolegno is water resistant. This feature makes it suitable for humid environments or where contact with water is constant.
FIBRA
The role of the architect is to interpret the space used by the contemporary man, in order to meet the requirements of the
modern world both in terms of environmental exploitation and especially with regard to those materials that create it.
What are the new needs that the contemporary architect should satisfy?
Architecture: facades - louvers
Building indutry: doors and windows- thresholds
Landscape architecture: pedestrian walkways
FIBRA PROPERTIES
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
In case of reduced thermal transmittance FIBRA is applied to doors and windows, used as thresholds for lift-slide fixtures
and curtain wall facades of class A buildings, ensuring energy performance standards that are impossible to achieve through
traditional materials, such as steel and aluminium in the same section. Value λ = 0.25 W/mK
SUN LIGHT
Fibra is widely used in Northern Europe, where the architect’s primary task is to bring more natural light into less sunny areas
as possible. Thanks to its thermal insulation properties, FIBRA creates reduced girder sections in a minimalist style, while leaving
space for glazing and brightness both to curtain wall facades and to doors and windows.
LIGHTWEIGHT
Steel, cement and FIBRA.
FIBRA ensures the same tensile strength of steel and is used for the construction of modern lightweight structures weighing 5
times less than steel. Density of 1,85 g/cm3 - Tensile strength 450 MPa
REDUCTION IN MAINTENANCE COSTS
Man, Environment and Time. The modern works are meant to last forever.
FIBRA does not undergo corrosion, does not oxidize and it resists the water and thermal shocks. (- 40°C/+180°C)
FIRE-RETARDANT
FIBRA meets ASTM international standards, class A, as well as the European standards EN 13501 Class A2 s1 d0
INDUSTRIAL FINISHING
Tensile strength : 450 Mpa
Specific weight : 1,85 g/cm3
Dielectric strength : 5-15 kV/mm
Thermal insulat ion : Lambda value λ = 0,25 W/mK
Fire retar dant : EN 13501 calsse A2 s1 d0 and ASTM E 84 class A
Salt spray corrosion resista nce and resista nce to aggressive chemical agents
Radiotransparent
APPLICATION
FIBERGLASS PROFILES
Innovation, research and development of new materials, analysis of new customers’ needs are the challenges that the modern
supply chain is facing to manufacture high-performance and improvement products.
High-voltage cable trays, access for maintenance, industrial fan blades are examples of the successful application of
fiberglass profiles instead of steel.

The specialists in composite profiles
Specialised in composite material profiles, Saimex has
a long experience in the field, both in manufacturing
processes and raw material research.
During our work experience we have constantly improved
our knowledge and ability to propose innovative materials
and solutions.
WHAT IS FIBRA?
Saimex srl is specialized in fiber glass reinforced profiles,
an automated system for the continuous pull extrusion of profiles with a stable and
complex section and with curing in closed die.
Make up about 65% of the profile and guarantee a high tensile and flexural strength
very similar to steel.
Working in close contact with the architectural setting, Saimex needs to develop more
aesthetic finishes, translucent effects, weft-face cloth. The result is FIBRA, a production line
specifically designed for advanced architectural effects.
FIBRA breaks the traditional engineering design principles, bringing together texture,
lightweight, transparency, material, shape, colour, thermal insulation, durability and antiageing
in a single product.
