The Next Step in Solar
Turn Regular Solar Panels Into Decorative Ones
A revolution in solar design. A panel that is made to hide itself or become a part of a beautiful decor. Because a black area in the landscape pleases no one. Not your business, not yourself as a home owner, or as your neighbors.
What if you could install panels that matched your roof or fence, added some life to a side wall, or allowed you to put advertising or your company logo on the solar installation?
That’s the revolution PVPfoil© introduces. The freedom to make your solar panels look the way you want them to. To express yourself. Or to simply make them blend in to your roof or natural surroundings.
Printing and assembly is done by certified professionals from our local partners. The earlier they plan design into their solar project, the easier it will be to execute. You can design any solar panel to either be virtually invisible or to enhance and decorate an area.
Why?
Because of their appearance, solar panels are not popular with many architects and builders. With PVPfoil© you can design any solar panel so that it either becomes practically invisible or decorates an area. Advertising, logos, products or the structure of the existing facade: you have the idea, we provide the product to implement it professionally.
PV Facade Constructions
Aluminum or stainless steel substructures are often used for the integration of photovoltaics into facades. These are mounted in a grid adapted to the module size and connected to the supporting structure. In ventilated facades, the metal rails compensate for unevenness and allow space for thermal insulation and horizontal cabling. Frameless modules are visibly held in place by point fixings, while framed modules are hung in a pre-assembled profile system. Frameless modules are popular because the frame protects the edges, but it can interfere with rainwater runoff and stain the modules.
In a new building, a PV façade can be planned from the very beginning. The facade surfaces should be well exposed to sunlight from the east, south or west. Shade castors such as balconies or building setbacks can be planned or reduced and undisturbed optimally aligned facade surfaces can be deliberately integrated. With PVPfoil©, aesthetic reservations can also be creatively eliminated.
PV facades in renovations?
If a ventilated facade is already in place, the PV option should be considered.
Instead of a weathered metal façade, crumbling Eternit or even a curtain wall of wood, solar panels can provide lasting protection and a completely new look. The future will bring facades that you walk past without realizing that a small solar power plant is at work here.
