Prefabricated multifunctional facades
ConExWall solution is a fully prefabricated façade element for serial refurbishment providing:- Further thermal insulating reducing space heating demand- Façade heating and/or cooling (optional), which eliminates the need for underfloor heating- Building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) and/or solar thermal collectors (optional) increasing renewable energy production and autarky- Ventilation with heat recovery (optional) reducing energy consumption and increasing comfortThe prefabricated module integrates a low temperature exterior hydronic wall heating system between the existing wall layer and the new added external envelope, a decentralised ventilation system with heat recovery and optionally PV-modules.The panel has been designed to match nZEB acoording to national directives
ConExWall Prefabricated Façade
The façade elements are made of a solid wood exterior cladding based on slow-grown thermo-treated pine (heat treatment to improve timber stability). In the elements, both the OSB board on the inner surface and the outside wind barrier provide airtight layers within the building envelope.New energy efficient windows are integrated in the façade.
Multifunctional Timber Prefabricated Façade
Prefabricated Multifunctional Façade (PMF) with integrated PV panels as external cladding, mechanical ventilation units with heat recovery hidden in new balconies, air ducts prefabricated within envelope.The 30cm panels include 14cm mineral wool, waterproof layers, and thermo-treated cladding for superior performance.Early-Reno tool for PV optimization and Data Handler for tenant interaction.
Timber Prefabricated Multifunctional Façade
The prefabricated panels used are timber-frame façade elements designed for a quick and efficient installation. Each panel is custom-sized to fit the building’s geometry. These panels integrate multiple layers, including thermal insulation, smart glazing windows, and ventilation units, enabling a high-performance envelope. The panels are engineered for quick on-site assembly, up to 180 m² per day, and are anchored to the existing structure after partial removal of the outer brick layer.
