    SUSTAINABLE COMPOSITE SIDING FOR ITALIAN ARCHITECTS

    Novano’s composite siding system redefines contemporary façades across Italy. Crafted for architects who prioritise sustainability, design precision, and longevity, it combines recycled rice husks with renewable polymers to form a durable, wood-free surface ideal for Italian architecture.

    From residential villas in Tuscany to seaside resorts along the Amalfi Coast, Novano delivers a refined aesthetic that endures. Its advanced surface composition resists UV rays, humidity, and temperature changes typical of Italy’s diverse weather, from the Mediterranean coast to the alpine north, ensuring long-lasting beauty with minimal maintenance.

It supports Italy’s national drive toward green construction, offering architects, developers, and designers an eco-conscious, high-performance alternative to traditional wood or PVC wall materials.

    BRANDS THAT TRUST NOVANO

    NOVANO IN RESIDENTIAL SPACES

    REDEFINING ITALIAN ARCHITECTURE WITH NOVANO SIDING

    Novano’s composite cladding panels inspire innovative designs that merge aesthetics, function, and performance. Perfect for:

    • Residential Buildings: villas, terraces, garden houses, and multi-family residences
    • Commercial Projects: hotels, offices, and retail façades demanding premium finishes
    • Public Infrastructure: schools, hospitals, and civic buildings requiring certified, low-maintenance materials
    • Architectural Accents: façades, vertical features, and design highlights enhancing Italian exteriors


    The consistent panel dimensions and pre-finished textures simplify installation, helping architects achieve seamless, linear façades with reduced waste.

    HOW VENTILATED FAÇADES IMPROVE BUILDING PERFORMANCE IN ITALY?

    Novano’s façade system is precision-engineered for both performance and aesthetics. With a concealed fixing mechanism, each panel interlocks smoothly, creating a clean, uninterrupted exterior surface. Beyond visual appeal, the design enhances building efficiency across Italy’s varied climates.

    MOISTURE MANAGEMENT

    Ventilated façades allow airflow between the siding and wall, essential for Italy’s humid and coastal environments. This prevents condensation and ensures the building envelope remains protected.

    THERMAL INSULATION

    The air cavity behind the panels improves thermal performance, retaining heat during winter and reducing heat gain in summer, helping lower energy consumption.

    SOUND INSULATION

    The ventilated façade acts as an acoustic barrier, reducing urban noise for greater indoor comfort, ideal for buildings in cities like Milan, Rome, and Naples.

    DESIGN FLEXIBILITY

    Available in 6” Flat Siding Profile and 6” Lusso Siding Profile, Novano offers versatile design options for sleek, modern façades suited to Italian architecture.

    Ventilated façade systems outperform traditional wall designs by enhancing energy efficiency, durability, and visual appeal. This composite cladding merges sustainable materials with a rear-ventilated design to ensure long-term performance in Italy’s varied climate.

    For architects, the system provides flexibility in both design and installation, compatible with metal, timber, and aluminium subframes, and easily integrated with standard cladding components for a seamless build.

    Novano also provides detailed technical sheets and manuals, CAD drawings, and training tools for architectural teams, ensuring smooth specification and accurate installation from concept to completion.
