BPE 18 Our high-volume classic with a classic wooden panel look. Borga BPE 18 is used for covering walls on various buildings. Its optimised covering width makes it one of our most economical solutions. The asymmetrical shape with wide upper ribs and narrow bottom grooves gives the facade an ageless and classic appearance. The profile can be installed either horizontally or vertically and is well suited for both small and large surfaces. The steel core is passivated and painted with a primer and a top layer in polyester P30, P50, MAT or our premium Metallic Colofer® City Lights series.
