Fasades that meet even the most demanding requirements

Reach for modern and functional facade solutions. Today, the market offers options that not only look good but also contribute to greater living comfort and help meet strict energy efficiency requirements for buildings.

Facade surface finishes have undergone a significant transformation over the last quarter of a century. While 25 years ago, investors could choose only from thin-layer plasters, which differed at most in shade and granularity (plus the option of being embossed or not), today’s construction offers many more possibilities. From decorative surface finishes with a primarily aesthetic function to sophisticated solutions for entire facade systems.

Designer Plasters from Weber

Realistic imitations of exposed concrete, ceramic cladding, wood, or sandstone. These are just a few examples of design and decorative plasters and renders from Weber. Those looking for modern and timeless solutions, as well as fans of traditional appearances, will find plenty in this wide portfolio. In any case, you can count on a maximally functional surface finish designed with high demands of investors and builders in mind.

For the application of traditional cladding strips, Weber has developed and certified an external insulation system weber therm keramik. This system allows for the use of facade polystyrene and mineral wool. Adhesive mass weberxerm 862 is used for gluing cladding strips, and for grouting, weberfug 872 F or webercolor klinker.

Weber designer plasters can easily imitate various materials

If you are an architect or designer, you can gain useful information about Weber plasters from the weber panel. Besides samples of designer plasters, you will also find technical data sheets, EPDs, SVT codes, and construction details for individual solutions there.

Insulation with Glass Surface

However, Weber has gone even further in innovations by developing a certified insulation system weber therm style with a glass cladding SGG EMALIT EVOLUTION HTS – specifically, it is tempered safety glass that is both hardened and printed with lead-free paint. The entire system is suitable for new constructions as well as renovations, in industrial, civic, and private buildings. The insulation in this case consists of EPS or mineral wool.

Compared to a classic ETICS insulation system, weber therm style imposes stricter requirements for flatness – it must have a value of 10 mm/m. Special adhesive mass webertherm style klebemörtel 2K is used for gluing the glass cladding.

Glass Facade for Energy Savings and Comfortable Living

Glass simply brings advantages to architecture and construction that you won't find with other materials. This is well illustrated by glass facades. The combination of special glasses with various parameters allows for high living comfort throughout the year and positively contributes to the energy balance of the building.

Saint-Gobain Building Glass offers a wide range of options for glass facades. For example, their thermally insulating glasses with ECLAZ coating are characterized by several noticeable parameters: they have a high solar factor, a low heat transfer coefficient, and high light transmittance. They achieve high passive solar gains, significantly reducing the energy demands of the building when used on the facade.

It’s also worth mentioning solar control glasses, which effectively prevent overheating of the interior even without additional shading. At the same time, they ensure excellent lighting conditions, thermal comfort year-round, and energy savings. An example is SGG COOL-LITE® XTREME, which, with selectivity greater than 2 and Ug = 0.5 W/m²K, represents the most effective solar control glass on the market.
