The present disclosure relates generally to cladding, for example, suitable for use covering the exterior surface of a building. The present disclosure relates more particularly to a siding panel including a light source. The siding panel includes a panel body having a length extending from a first end to a second end, a width extending from a first edge to a second edge, a front face, and a rear face. A first lock extends along the first edge of the panel body and a second lock extending along the second edge of the panel body. A fastening strip is coupled to the first lock. A light source extending along the length of the panel body is secured to the panel body so as to provide light from the front face of the panel body.

Provided is a panel, in particular a floor panel, ceiling panel, or wall panel, having a laminated multi-layer structure which includes a core layer, a decorative layer above the core layer, a transparent top layer above the decorative layer, and an intermediate layer situated between the decorative layer and the top layer. The intermediate layer is transparent, and made from a protective material which includes a polyurethane composition which is the reaction product of a polyester polyol, a polyether polyol, and an isocyanate. The polyurethane composition is a thermoset polymer material. Also provided is a use of an additional layer in a laminated multi-layer structure of a panel in particular a floor panel, ceiling panel, or wall panel. The additional layer is transparent, and is made from a protective material which includes a polyurethane composition which is the reaction product of a polyester polyol, a polyether polyol, and an isocyanate. The polyurethane composition is a thermoset polymer material.

A decorative sheet includes at least a topcoat layer disposed to face a substrate layer in a first direction, the front surface of the topcoat layer having a wavy roughness profile measured with a cutoff wavelength λs of 8 μm and a cutoff wavelength λc of 2.5 mm according to JIS B0601:2001 in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, a selected evaluation portion of the wavy roughness profile comprising a plurality of profile elements, an evaluation length of the selected evaluation portion of the wavy roughness profile having 10 mm, the selected evaluation portion of the wavy roughness profile being designed to have an arithmetic mean deviation Ra of 10 μm or less; and to have a mean width of the profile elements and a ten point height, the mean width and the ten point height satisfying the following expression: 5≤RSm/RzJIS≤40 . . . (1), where RSm represents the mean width, and RzJIS represents the ten point height.

A solid surface material apparatus and process is disclosed which comprises a first solid material comprising acrylic modified polyester resin, at least one natural mineral filler, and at least one colorant and/or at least one granule configured in a sheet with at least one channel cut into the top surface of it and a second solid surface material comprising an acrylic modified polyester resin, at least one natural mineral filler, and at least one colorant and/or at least one granule which at least partially fills the at least one channel of the first solid surface material.

A sound-data-interactive dynamic adaptive facade module system is provided. The sound-data-interactive dynamic adaptive facade module system changes a shape of the sound-data-interactive dynamic adaptive facade module system by moving interactively according to sound values and by gaining a sound shield feature by enlarging a surface. The sound-data-interactive dynamic adaptive facade module system includes: a steel frame structure, a coating material, a vertical steel carrier profile, a coupler, a vertical and horizontal steel carrier joint profile, a metal pinion plate, a bearing, a bush cap, a servo motor, and servo motor connection cables.

The invention relates to a decorative surface covering element, in particular a floor panel, ceiling panel or wall panel. The invention also relates to a panel covering, such as a floor covering, ceiling covering or wall covering, including a plurality of panels. The invention further relates to a method of producing a decorative surface covering element.

A filtering device for incorporation into an architectural façade panel includes a tubular channel having an inlet section, an outlet section, and a constricted section interposed between and in fluid communication with the inlet section and outlet section. A filtering component is attached to the tubular channel or integrated into a material forming the tubular channel. The filtering device also includes an attachment component for attachment of the filtering device to an architectural structure. The attachment component is adapted to orient the tubular channel with the inlet section positioned to face predetermined prevailing winds when the filtering device is attached to the architectural structure.

A floor panel has a rectangular and oblong shape, and includes a substrate and a top layer provided on the substrate and forming a decorative side of the floor panel. The top layer is composed of a print provided on a carrier sheet and a transparent thermoplastic layer situated above the print. The substrate has a thickness from 2 to 10 millimeter and forms at least half of the thickness of the floor panel. The substrate is a polyurethane-based substrate and the transparent thermoplastic layer is polyurethane-based. The floor panel has a length of more than 1.1 meters and has a plurality of reinforcing layers situated outside the center line of the substrate. A reinforcing layer may be provided in combination with the substrate and the top layer.
