Screenwood provided a natural finish in this refurbished space with solid PEFC certified Hoop Pine slats. Westfield Design and Construction Pty Ltd specified Screenwood to line the ceilings around the shopping Centre atrium at Westfield Southlands in Cheltenham, VIC. The ceiling offered a challenge in its curved design, but with the help of customised brackets, Screenwood was expertly installed by Star Ceilings and Partitions fit-out company.

With a range of timbers and coatings to choose from, Screenwood is ideal for new and existing fitouts. Designed for ease of installation, Screenwood is supplied prefinished, assembled and cut to specification.
