Multifaçades by STEKAR is a pressure-equalised rainscreen facade system designed to integrate cladding, glazing, and window units within a unified exterior envelope. Suitable for new construction and retrofit projects, the system can accommodate a range of facade materials, including glass, aluminium, stone, composite panels, high-pressure laminates, sintered stone, and building-integrated photovoltaic panels.
The system incorporates STEKAR’s patented flush window technology, allowing insulated glazing units to align with the cladding plane. This creates a continuous visual effect while maintaining the performance logic of a rainscreen envelope. Multifaçades is anchored to an insulated support wall behind the cladding, helping to reduce thermal bridging and improve overall envelope performance.
Its pressure-equalised cavity manages wind loads and water drainage, contributing to long-term durability, weather resistance, and building envelope reliability. The system also supports thermal and acoustic performance, helping buildings meet increasingly stringent energy-efficiency requirements.
Multifaçades is designed with independent panels, allowing individual facade elements to be removed or replaced without dismantling adjacent panels. This can support maintenance, repair, and long-term adaptability. Its suitability for retrofit applications also allows existing buildings to improve facade performance while retaining the underlying structure.
