Through-coloured
Colour throughout the board. Three architectural surface expressions.

Nordic spirit.Infinite expression.
A façade lives in weather. So does the cut edge beside it. On TrueColor the colour runs through the board, and a cut does not open onto a pale core.
Material as architecture
Surface. Colour. Edge. Light.

A note from the factory
The colour is already in the board.
Skanfas finishes its own fibre-cement boards in Simola, in south-eastern Finland. Coating has been part of the work since 2004. Cutting followed in 2017, and CNC in 2020. Keeping those steps in one factory is a practical choice: the surface you specify and the board that arrives belong to the same conversation.
Choose a colour with a physical sample in your hand. A screen shifts it. Through-coloured fibre cement also varies, a little, the way a mineral material does. That variation is part of the surface, not a mistake to be edited out of a photograph.
When the project is real, write to Antti Turkia. He is the managing director. The address is the factory itself: Rikkiläntie 993, 54330 Simola.
A sample, a drawing and a quantity are enough to begin. The first email does not need a finished specification.
In the hand
A board, not a render.
A family with a finish strip can be turned. The view loads only after you open it. Vivid, Rough and Heavy-Duty stay as a note until a photograph is in the set. This is not a CAD model.
Finish strip from the 2026 image set. Not a CAD model. The thickness is a geometric study, not a measured sample.
