Description
For one of Mexico’s busiest international airports, the design team needed an interior material that could deliver modern aesthetics, exceptional durability, and consistent performance in high-traffic public environments. The goal was to elevate passenger experience while ensuring the materials could withstand heavy daily use, constant cleaning, and changes in indoor climate.
Oakio WPC Panels were selected for multiple key areas—including the public passage wall, VIP lounge ceiling and wall, and the reception desk—bringing cohesive warmth and architectural refinement across different functional zones.
Final Outcome
A Passage Wall with Oakio WPC Panels
