THE AVANTGARDE OF SOLAR FAÇADES
THE AVANTGARDE OF SOLAR FAÇADES
SKALA is a thin-film photovoltaic (PV) module designed as a solar active building material, setting new standards for aesthetic solar façade solutions. It is suitable for various building types and construction projects, offering a blend of design, quality, and efficiency.
Design and Quality
SKALA modules are frameless with a homogeneous glass surface available in different colors. Developed and produced in Germany, they meet high quality and safety standards, certified to ISO, IEC, and German general building approval (abZ).
Efficiency and Functionality
These modules transform passive building envelopes into power-generating façades, contributing to the building's energy balance even under challenging weather conditions. They are available in standard sizes but can be customized to fit specific design needs.
Material and Color Options
SKALA can be integrated with various façade materials such as aluminum, fiber concrete, wood, and mesh metal. The modules feature a uniform black surface but are also available in other colors, utilizing sunlight reflection for colorfulness.
Service Concept
AVANCIS offers a full-service concept from panel production to complete façade projects. This includes technical consultancy and project management, ensuring coordination between architects, construction managers, and façade builders.
Mounting and Installation
SKALA modules can be installed in portrait or landscape formats, compatible with any façade substructure. They are designed for use in ventilated façade systems, providing thermal and water repellent protection while generating solar energy.
Conclusion
SKALA offers a scalable and environmentally friendly solution for energy-efficient building façades, reducing the total cost of ownership and enhancing the building's energy balance.
