Aged Care
AGED CARE & RETIREMENT LIVING
Places designed to care, deserve materials that endure.
DESIGNED FOR LONG-TERM COMMUNITIES
Built for people.
Designed to endure.
Retirement communities are long-term investments in people as much as buildings. Every design decision shapes how residents experience a place today, while every material choice influences how operators maintain and protect it for decades to come.
The best communities feel warm, welcoming and residential rather than institutional. They create places where people can live independently, families feel reassured and operators can have confidence that the built environment will continue performing over time.
Nu Wall supports these outcomes with durable, low-maintenance aluminium cladding systems that help create contemporary architecture while protecting long-term asset value.
DESIGNED FOR EVERYDAY OPERATION
Materials that reduce maintenance, not expectations.
For retirement village operators, maintenance is more than an operational cost. Every maintenance cycle has the potential to disrupt residents, increase operational demands and affect the experience of the community.
Nu Wall aluminium cladding won't rust, rot or warp, while durable powder-coated finishes are designed to retain their appearance in New Zealand conditions.
Maintenance Joints can also be incorporated to provide future façade access with minimal disruption when services need to be upgraded or maintained.
By reducing ongoing maintenance, facilities can spend less time managing buildings and more time focused on the people who live within them.
DESIGNED FOR RESIDENTIAL CHARACTER
Architecture that feels like home.
The environments we create influence how people feel every day. For retirement communities, architecture plays an important role in creating places that feel welcoming, familiar and connected to everyday life rather than institutional.
Nu Wall's range of profiles, colours and finishes gives architects the flexibility to create distinctive communities with warmth, rhythm and character. Whether the design calls for contemporary simplicity or a more traditional residential expression, the system supports a cohesive architectural language across homes, apartments and shared community buildings.
By combining design flexibility with long-term durability, Nu Wall helps create communities that continue looking as considered years after completion as they did on opening day.
A COMPLETE CLADDING SYSTEM
Confidence built into every specification.
Retirement communities are designed for decades of operation. Owners, architects and contractors need confidence that every component of the building envelope will continue performing as intended.
Nu Wall provides a complete aluminium cladding system, including coordinated profiles, flashings, accessories and technical support designed to work together. A wide range of profiles, colours and finishes gives architects the freedom to create distinctive communities while maintaining confidence in long-term performance.
From concept through to construction, Nu Wall simplifies specification while supporting consistent, reliable outcomes over the life of the building.
Proven performance
Independent appraisal supporting confident specification
Nu Wall systems are supported by extensive testing and BRANZ Appraisals, including E2/VM2 verification, providing confidence in the system’s performance across complex commercial buildings.
As a non-combustible aluminium cladding system, Nu Wall also supports specification on multi-storey commercial buildings where fire performance is an important consideration.
Durability that keeps delivering
Cladding designed for buildings that serve generations
Aged care buildings are long-term assets. Aluminium provides lasting durability, while powdercoated finishes maintain their appearance with minimal upkeep. The result is cladding that supports whole-of-life building performance helping facilities invest in buildings that continue to serve future generations.
