The coverings proposed by Oikos are classifi ed according to the type of door installation and their
use: internal or external side.
They are divided into:
Coverings for interiors
They are suitable for the inner side of the door or the outer side of staircase entrance doors, doors between living and sleeping areas,
panic-rooms etc.
Coverings for protected outdoor exposure
They are suitable for coverings exposed directly to the outside, provided that they are under the shelter of a porch that protects them
from the direct action of atmospheric agents and sun rays. Since they are painted using water-based colors, their maintenance is easy
and has to be performed regularly according to the supplied instructions.
Coverings for unprotected outdoor exposure
They are suitable in situations where the door is not protected from the sun rays or the direct action of rain.
Outdoor coverings for the Country Line, Massello and Legno Vivo lines bear a 12-year warranty for transparent painting and a 15-year
warranty for lacquered fi nish. The warranty is valid, if panel maintenance is carried out.
(see certifi ed quality instructions).
Laminam is the covering material that off ers the best performance in unprotected exposures and in aggressive weather situations.
Coverings for exposure to aggressive weather conditions
Use Kit Plus for the appropriate metal structure and covering materials: Laminam, Trespa, Steel-Color steels etc.
Please consult the Oikos sales network and sales offi ces.
Aggressive weather conditions are defi ned on door installations when they are:
• less than 300 meters away from where the sea wave breaks
• above 2000 meters above sea level
• hit by desert winds (like Ghibli)
• violently exposed to the sun (blazing sun)
• in particularly humid environments
• in environments with very polluted atmosphere
