Possible uses and applications of ceramic facades.
One of the most challenging tasks of architecture is to ensure that buildings not only provide space for living, but also become part of living spaces themselves. Buildings and their facades influence their users and their surroundings.

Technology and installation of the ceramic facade.
The TONALITY® facade systems are made up of ceramic elements that are attached to vertical aluminium retaining profiles and profiled on the back. The vertical joints between the elements are covered by aluminium joint profiles.

Advantages of ceramic slats.
A facade designed for timber frame construction that always impresses with its ceramic properties. Rain, storms, heat, cold – building facades are exposed to extreme loads over their entire service life. The ceramic slats from TONALITY®, the second version of the rear-ventilated ceramic façade of natural origin from the Westerwald.

Formats of the ceramic slats.
A slat comes in an almost predetermined format. But the advantages of high-quality ceramic and the slat in combination create something unique. The hooks for anchoring to the substructure are attached to the back of the panels.

Technology and installation of the ceramic slats.
The ceramic slat is mounted using an aluminium rail provided for this purpose. This procedure allows installation in all conventional construction methods. With a consistent joint pattern, it can be used in timber frame construction through to sustainable solid construction.
Form follows Nature
Nature in its most perfect form.
Everything else is just a façade.
