Project date: 2014
Where: Doetinchem – The Netherlands
By: Lensvelt en Ekosiet


The original façade of this building was damaged badly by weather influence to such an extend that decided was to replace the whole façade. The original feel and look of the façade were to be maintained without the use of the original materials.

Silicone rubber was used to make a copy of the original
façade, which acted as the moulds to make large A1 façade
panels. The result are panels with the exact feel and look of
the original façade.

A two-component coating was used to protect the panels
against weather influences. This was possible as the back of
the panels are not coated and well-ventilated resulting in a
damp-open system.
