ecoskin – the facade system for serial renovation
Industrial prefabrication for maximum quality and short renovation times in existing buildings.
Digitally planned, industrially manufactured, quickly assembled.
ecoskin is an industrially prefabricated facade system in timber frame construction. The facade modules consist of a timber frame structure with thermal insulation and rear-ventilated outer cladding – including factory-integrated windows and living space ventilation. The modules are manufactured precisely to fit in the factory and can be assembled on the construction site without scaffolding using a crane. The result: Half the construction time, highest quality, minimal disruption for residents.

Structure & Technical Data

Levelling insulation
Mineral wool for thermal insulation and tolerance compensation. Creates a seamless connection to the existing wall.
Structural sheathing
Robust gypsum fibre board for static bracing of the element. Serves as a barrier for fire and sound protection.
Timber frame construction and compartment insulation
The studwork with sill and top plate made of wood is the supporting structure of the facade module. The compartment is filled with mineral wool insulation.
Facade membrane
Weather-proof, breathable membrane. Creates a wide-area wind-proof layer.
Rear ventilation and substructure
Support system for the cladding. The cavity ensures moisture removal and quick drying through air circulation, and prevents heat build-up in summer.
Facade cladding
Protects against the weather and determines the architectural appearance. Individually configurable from fibre cement or wood.
Windows
Window units integrated into the facade module at the factory. Optional and depending on requirements with integrated sun protection.
Ventilator
Compact unit for automatic air exchange and humidity control. Saves additional heating energy through highly efficient heat recovery.
