Butong Panels by Butong

Butong creates translucent-concrete and transparent-concrete panels that can be formed and colored to fit any design. These panels make for low maintenance green walls and vertical gardens and can be applied on ceilings and acoustic walls. In all of these applications, the panels display effective sound absorption – improving acoustics by noise reduction Development of the Butong Process started, in 2006, to create the feeling of light passing through autumn leaves in a thin panel. Simply put, Butong is created by pressing a cast substance between two form-matrices with extruded cells – thus creating lightweight panels consisting of two mesh structures. The fresh panel can be placed on any one-sided form with maintained even thickness. This makes it easy and cost-efficient for them to produce panels of an optimal and optional three-dimensional shape, in large or unique editions. Adding to a house with facades of Butong’s vertical garden is like adding a park, which improves social, economic, and environmental value to the house and its surroundings. Butong's panels are 100% mineral and are, from a geological point of view, a rock. The rock as a background allows a vertical garden to have a wide variety of plants to grow, making the wall a vibrant neighbor that looks different along the seasons.
