ULMA offers architectural solutions for ventilated facades. Their wide range of cladding panels can be adapted to each project, enabling customized panel cutting and flexible formats. Adaptability, flexibility, cutting-edge aesthetics, and great durability are their best advantages.
This fretwork texture enabled the renovation of a classic building, maintaining its appearance, whilst improving energy efficiency. It made it possible to eliminate the vertical and horizontal joints in the design. It may seem like the architects have to reject the latest technical systems such as ventilated facades when renovating classic buildings, but using customized textures in Stoneo is possible.
The fretwork texture is made with Stoneo, a material with all the sensations of stone. With its character, its textures, and colors; its solidity, beauty, and strength. It is the very essence of the stone.
This is a stone derivative made up almost entirely of natural (aggregates) and recycled components. All of them, are controlled through rigorous quality protocols. Stoneo is a non-porous material, with almost no water absorption (0.1%), which guarantees watertight integrity and excellent performance against atmospheric changes such as; thawing, rain, or wind.
All these characteristics make Stoneo a sustainable and high-quality material, not only for its strength and durability but also for its beauty.

Ventilated Facade Systems
What is a Facade Cladding System?
The ventilated facade is a coating system of the building walls that leaves a ventilated chamber between the coating and the insulation. In the European academic community, it is considered the most efficient system for resolving the building’s insulation, eliminating the unwanted thermal bridges as well as the condensation problems and so achieving an excellent thermal-hydrometric behavior of the building.
Sustainability
ULMA is committed to recyclable, reusable, non-contaminating, and chemically inert material. Optimum for restorations, being endowed with properties that extend the life of the building, promoting Sustainable Construction. The specific features of Stoneo by ULMA, used in the manufacture of their parts, help to create Eco-efficient buildings.

These facade systems are not commercialized in France and/or in the UK.
