Product: Jesmonite AC100
The Project
Jesmonite AC100 has been used to make nearly 6,000 pieces of wall art on P&O’s new cruise liner, Britannia. All the cabins contain a triptych of cast Jesmonite panels, and Jesmonite also features in two of the ships main restaurants.
The cabin artwork was initially proposed in ceramic, however this presented problems in cost, speed of manufacture and weight.
Jesmonite panels were also used to create large relief panels for the Sindhu Restaurant and to mimic origami paper boats in the Horizon buffet restaurant.
“The Jesmonite solution was exactly what we needed given the strict fire rating and weight restrictions… and I am sure this will be a game changer for both the cruise and hotel industries”.
