Since it was formed in 1987, the Pendock name has gradually become regarded as a byword for high quality decorative casing and enclosure solutions for concealing structural elements and building services, which helps improve a project’s aesthetics and in many cases, also provide protection.
While all Pendock products are relevant to architects, specifiers and contractors, the most commonly specified are those within its Linea building lining and Radius column casing ranges.
Linea building linings
The extensive Pendock Linea building linings range comprises nine different architectural finishing products. In addition to wall linings, ceiling rafts, and lift reveals and soffit linings, the range also encompasses bulkheads and fascias, as well as parapet capping and pilasters and perimeter casings. Specialised rooflight linings & atrium beam casings complete the range.
Each provides a practical and aesthetic solution for specific applications, while also retaining a high degree of versatility, as every Linea product is bespoke manufactured to the dimensions and specifications of individual projects.
The Linea range allows architects to specify several lining elements within a project from a single source, as opposed to these items being unlisted or ‘floating’ within various sections of a specification document.
By using this approach, a high degree of consistency to be achieved across different aspects of a project, as the elements can be manufactured, supplied and installed, if required, from a single specialist manufacturer. This helps reduce risk, mitigate potential co-ordination issues on site and allows a uniform, high-quality finish to be achieved.
Radius column casings
Column casings are a widely used and highly versatile method of concealing interior and exterior structural steelwork. Pendock’s Radius brand unites the company’s six individual column casing types to make specification simpler while also identifying the key differences between each option.
The pre-formed plywood range is purely for interior use and is available as circular or square profile casings, as well as extended circles or rectangular shapes. Although they are available unfinished for on-site painting, most are specified pre-finished with high pressure laminates (HPL) which provides increased durability and a very wide choice of finishes.
Glass reinforced gypsum (GRG) casings are also for interior use only and are regularly specified as circles, yet, as they are produced from moulds, GRG casings can also be manufactured to bespoke shapes and dimensions to meet the needs of specific projects.
Pendock’s GRP casings are also produced from moulds, which enables them to be bespoke manufactured to meet individual project specifications. However, they can be specified for use on both interior and exterior applications. Their durability and weather resistance also makes them well suited for high traffic areas, such as public buildings and retail.
The versatile metal column casing range is also designed for interior and exterior projects. As they are manufactured from aluminium or stainless-steel, they are weather resistant, highly durable and can be specified in a wide range of standard and bespoke shapes with finish options including RAL, BS colour PPC finishes as well as anodised, brushed, polished and textured.
