Origin
Munkø cladding powered by a:gain is a waste-based wall cladding made from wood offcuts from window frame production. Every day in the wood industry, several containers are filled with wooden slats that could have been the raw material in other productions. This wood was discarded as a consequence of high standards on wooden window frames, but the knots that disqualify it from that production, we see as an aesthetic of its own. Instead of leaving the wood as a residual material, it has been repurposed and turned into wooden slats for a natural and playful wall cladding. The product was developed as a consequence of cladding developed for Copenhagen Towers, pictured on the right.
Note: We are currently developing this product into a full-height panel for easier installation on-site.


Finishes and treatments
Munkø is available in several different finishes. Please get in contact with us for any inquiries about these.



Installation
Munkø cladding powered by a:gain is, at its core, a mix of untreated profiled pine strips, which can be combined in any number of ways and treated in a myriad of ways.
The pine strips are available in different lengths and thicknesses (see top of the page), as the dimensions depend on the waste wood of the production process. The pine strips are assembled by tongue and groove, along the sides. The sticks are currently mounted directly to a wall, however, we are working on a new version, which would be delivered as preassembled full wall paneling.
