Introduction to Concrete Skin
Rieder Group introduces concrete skin, a facade panel made from fibreC glass fiber reinforced concrete. This material aligns with the contemporary trend towards natural, environmentally friendly, and sustainable building materials, providing a modern and aesthetically pleasing appearance. These durable panels, only 13 mm thick, offer significant design flexibility for creating unique facades. The concrete skin seamlessly covers buildings, corners, and edges, creating a fluid and continuous material flow.
Innovative Design and Application
Concrete skin panels are designed to function as rain screen facades, enveloping buildings like a second skin made from extruded concrete. This innovative approach opens new possibilities for modern ventilated wall designs, ensuring long-term durability. The panels can be installed either visibly or concealed on a metal substructure, allowing for versatile design applications.
Colors and Surfaces
The concrete skin facade panels are through-colored with natural pigments and are available in 23 different colors. Additionally, they come in three distinct surface textures:
- FE ferro: Sandblasted for a textured finish.
- FE ferro light: Sandblasted at a lower pressure for a lighter texture.
- MA matt: Brushed to create a smooth, matte surface.
These options provide countless creative possibilities in terms of color, structure, and form. Special colors can also be requested to meet specific design requirements.
Conclusion
The concrete skin facade panels by Rieder Group offer an innovative and sustainable solution for modern architectural design. Their thin, durable structure combined with a variety of colors and textures provides architects with significant freedom to create distinctive and enduring facades. By seamlessly integrating with building surfaces, these panels contribute to the aesthetic and functional enhancement of contemporary structures.
