Discover the future of facade technology: leasing facades
One of the most groundbreaking topics at Future Facade is facade leasing, an emerging trend in the Netherlands that could have a significant impact on the sustainability of building facades. In this innovative model, the facades remain the property of the builder and are leased to building owners. This facilitates the recycling and reuse of materials, promoting circularity within the sector. Martijn Veerman, a leading facade expert from Alkondor, will discuss the benefits and challenges of this model and present the first pilot projects.
Maze of Innovations
Whether you’re looking for sustainable solutions, innovative installation techniques, or the latest software for facade design, experience firsthand the groundbreaking technologies in the Maze of Innovations. This green maze, spanning nearly 600m2, features cool and innovative mock-ups, facade elements, and research projects from key suppliers, universities, and facade builders. These innovations are presented in various formats and focus strongly on topics such as:
-
Circular facade elements
-
Transparency
-
Biobased and biodegradable facades
-
Adaptive facades
-
Technical ingenuity in facades
MaterialDistrict expositie; Fascinating Facades
