Gray Community Hall needed a natural, warm aesthetic for its exterior soffits, without the cost and maintenance demands of realtimber.
ECOTONE applied a custom coating onsite to the compressed fibre cement soffits, transforming the blank cladding into a natural wood inspired finish that brings warmth and character to thebuilding.
The result is a stunningly sustainable, cost effective finish that gives Gray Community Hall a natural timber look built tolast.

We love our Gol Duhn with black shadow line edge finish on these soffits. It has been a pleasure to collaborate on this community hall to deliver a truly amazing space for localgatherings.

FAQs
ECOTONE provides architectural finishes, colour matching solutions, and protective coatings including emulsion stains, sealants, primers, and waterproof and weatherproof systems designed to enhance, restore, and protect building surfaces with long lasting, low VOCperformance.
Standard paint is a surface-level decorative layer. ECOTONE coatings are multi-layered systems that penetrate and bond with the substrate, delivering deeper texture, stronger adhesion, and long-term durability. Designed for harsh conditions, they offer advanced protection and can last up to 25 years when properlyapplied.
ECOTONE coating systems are specified for application by approved applicators trained in our products and processes, ensuring consistent quality and eligibility for the 25-yearwarranty. Many projects are delivered as custom building finishes, with ECOTONE working directly with architects, builders, and precast partners to achieve the design intent.

Sustainability at ECOTONE is driven by how surfaces are designed, applied and maintained over time. Our coating systems reduce material use, extend building life and minimise environmental impact across the builtenvironment.
