Product • By Nordisk Profil GmbHWoodfac Panel

Woodfac Panel

WOODFAC Panel is a closed façade system that wraps your building in real wood while quietly handling the hard work behind the scenes. Wooden lamellae sit on a structure of 100% recycled Greenline® aluminium, forming a breathable climate screen that protects the building without trapping moisture — the look of a timber façade, with the performance of a modern rainscreen. Every lamella is FSC®- or PEFC™-certified and fire-impregnated with a Cradle to Cradle–certified, natural flame retardant, reaching fire classifications up to B-s1,d0 (EN 14915 / EN 16755). The wood is thermally treated for dimensional stability, so the façade stays true year after year — with no painting or treatment req... More

Project • By ULMA Architectural SolutionsSecondary Schools

Altzaga School

The facade of the Altzaga School, in Leioa, was restored with our Paper texture in black.This restoration project aimed to respond to the detachment problems present on the existing facades along the ground floor. It was also intended to maintain the building's original aesthetics and horizontal design, for which the CenergITE Bizkaia architecture studio, responsible for the project, decided to opt for polymer concrete. Changing phyllite stone for polymer concreteThe paper texture and the colour were chosen in order to provide continuity to the previous aesthetics, resembling natural stone. In addition, the polymer concrete solution was lighter than the phyllite stone used previously, making it an ideal material for the proje... More

Fronton Miribilla

The Casa del Deporte y Frontón Bizkaia, also known as the Frontón de Miribilla is a professional pelota court located in the Miribilla neighbourhood of Bilbao. It was inaugurated in 2011 and with its 3,000 seats it is the largest pelota court in Spain.The need to restore its facade arose after some parts fell to the ground. After several analyses, it was determined that we needed to replace all the parts of the façade and the fastening system installed. We removed all the slate slabs and anchoring, to then install a new grid on which the new ULMA polymer concrete panels were installed.ULMA ventilated façade solution with polymer concrete panels The ventilated facade solution is a system that leaves an air chamber be...

Baguettes by Tempio

The design of these sunscreen/baguette pieces allows multiples applications: they can be used as lattice, can be used as a filter of the light, can be used as a hide element for stairwells and openings, can be used as balustrade, pergola or even can be used to separate two atmospheres (both indoor and outdoor). They are manufactured up to 1.80 m in natural (full body) and glazed colours. These ceramic tiles can be installed using a very simple fixing system, which also includes a safety clip which prevent the pieces to be removed easily. More

FF-K 30/R300 - Ventilated Facade Elements

FS system, vertical joint on facades. Its placing, with a wider perpend, fairly marks the horizontality of the pieces. This system has a special aluminium clamp that holds the piece and links it to the structure. When installing it, we will constantly check weights and levels. We fix the brackets to the structure with a mechanical anchor, and to the wall using a chemical anchor. The anchors will be the most suitable according to the quality of the wall. We fix the vertical profile to the brackets with steel rivets, so it allows the dilation of the aluminium. To do this, we rivet a fixed point above and the following with mobile points. Always following the same installation pattern, if, for example, we start right to left, we would fix the... More
