Facade-Lab

The Facade-Lab is Priedemann’s platform for research & development, creativity, collaboration and innovation. We bring together specialists from different industries such as manufacturing, engineering, architectural and other scientific fields to develop sustainable and cutting edge technologies in the facade sector up to market launch.

Research & Development

The Facade-Lab is Priedemann’s link between routine planning, research & development and knowledge transfer. Here we develop facade solutions that meet
the complex challenges of the 21st century with resource-saving, forward-looking and intelligent answers.

Facade Showroom

The haptic and optical impression of a facade changes noticeably with the scale in which it is presented. In order to convey the wide range of different facade solutions in an exciting and realistic way, we display over 50 facade elements in original size in our showroom.

ACT Facade

Festo was the first project in which we realized our idea of the ACT Facade – as we later called it. ACT stands for Active Cavity Transition, three words that characterize its functionality. We also liked ACT because it’s actually an active building envelope, not just passive sun protection.

Facade Forum

The Facade Lab is a specialist location for training courses, workshops and lectures for anything to do with the facade. The focus is on exchange of ideas and further training for the implementation of innovations.

Mock-Ups & Prototypen

Working with sample facades even during the planning phase underlines our technical curiosity as well as our responsibility to ensure feasibility. What will a design actually look like? How technically feasible is it? The Facade Lab provided the right infrastructure to do this. The same applies to the innovation-driven area of prototype development for innovative facade solutions.
