Modular frame system for multifunctional textile façade with wide range of designs and uses

Sustainable construction increasingly includes the entire lifecycle of buildings, which means that the demand for functionality and flexibility in façades is always on the rise too. With the modular frame system for textile Schüco FACID façades, the external appearance of a building can be quickly and efficiently adapted to changing requirements without limiting its function – a key milestone on the path towards the transformative façade.

Be it as a suspended, rear-ventilated façade, as an additional decorative level or as a combined façade, the modular frame system of Schüco FACID M opens up a wide selection of design options with suitability for digital printing and attractive lighting options. A wide variety of fabrics is available depending on the requirements and building type.

Further benefits of the modular frame which is easy to pre-assemble include outstanding technical properties combined with durability and multifunctional applications.

Planning benefit

  • Flexible frame system for creating modular, pre-assembled Schüco textile façades
  • All lateral forces of the membrane are diverted away by the reinforcement profiles: the building walls therefore only need to bear the dead load of the frame and the normal positive and negative wind loads
  • Based on a patented clamping system used worldwide: maximum functionality and clamping without folds in all corners and attachments combined with durability and low costs across the entire lifecycle of the building
  • Use of high-tech textiles ensures multifunctional applications such as screening, sun shading, glare protection and protection against the weather: fibreglass fabric with fire classification A2 can also be used
  • Fabrics with an antifungal coating effectively prevent the growth of fungus and spores
