Thanks to the transformation of processes, quick installation and durability prefabricated façades (prefab facadesis now one of the most used technical solutions by architects.
Designing a facade is the most important challenge for architects, as a large part of the building's overall structure, image, and functionality rests on it.
Research into new materials and technical solutions by industry professionals has led to improvements in quality and efficiency in recent years. These can be seen in systems such as prefabricated façades, nanomaterials and smart homes, which in turn are appearing more and more frequently in new home construction.
In light of this architectural shift in the sector and thanks to accelerated production due to digitalisation and automation, the prefabricated facades of Ripstaal Group A faster, more efficient and sustainable way of building. We'll gladly explain why.
Why opt for a prefabricated facade?
Prefabricated facade systems shorten on-site delivery times and enable custom design. Other highlights in this area include prefabricated modular chalets, Business halls, villas and terraced houses.
These technical solutions are built with materials from the Ripstaal Group and are delivered from our factory in Oss – the Netherlands, with brand-name insulation, structures and finishes. The modules, anchoring systems and the team's technical expertise allow for rapid installation.
Advantages of prefab facades
The main advantages of these facades over ’traditional facades’ are:
- Higher Quality in control in every project phase.
- Faster Construction time, on-site installation and delivery times.
- More sustainable Significantly less waste is produced during manufacturing and installation compared to traditional façades: natural and human resources are optimised through the reuse of existing processes. These systems are also incredibly lightweight (less than 55 kg/m2), reducing the amount of materials used and the building's carbon footprint.
- More versatile They can be adapted to different types of facades (ventilated or clad) and to any aesthetic.
- Safer The manufacturer monitors the project and carries out quality checks at every project stage, allowing for shorter lead times than normal. They are built in the factory itself, leading to a reduction in workplace accidents.
- Improved technical support Ripstaal Steelframing's technical facade department offers support from project analysis through to on-site installation.
