Novowood is a composite material (WPC), 70% made of wood natural fibers and 30% made of Polyethylene. It can be used for products of different shapes and colors, still maintaining the elegance of wood and the advantages of a not completely natural material.

The WPC had multiple purposes in this creation: for the facades, thanks to the use of “Infinity 60 Plus” profiles, which "turn up" also covering the ceilings framing the large windows; the louvers; have been easily installed thanks to the pre-assembled panels that speeded up the process.
Even some areas in the house, very close and connected to the green spaces, use the Novowood WPC with the “Elite 145” profiles for the external ground floor and the terraces on the first floor.
