Facade design Insulation means individuality.
For a recently thermally insulated facade, the design possibilities are endless. Not only when choosing a color, but also when it comes to materials – the sky’s the limit. Whether you choose a special render, a ceramic coating, a special facade profile or natural stone – one thing is certain: the design of your facade will be one of a kind.

Texture and color
The suitable render
Why are renders so popular in facade design? Not only can they be manufactured and combined in countless color shades, they also offer a very wide range of different qualities and possible textures: from fine to coarse grain, from scraped and grooved render textures to smooth renders and individually texturable modeling renders. For virtually all areas of application, all requirements and all substrates there is a suitable render:
Rausan-R/KR and Silcosil-KR renders are particularly resistant to air pollutants and able to withstand a high degree of mechanical stress. They are therefore the first choice in congested urban areas and industrial environments. The organically bound Rausan and the silicone-reinforced Silcosil renders also offer outstanding weather resistance. The renders are available in an almost unlimited color shade selection, as both organic and inorganic pigments can be used.
If you don’t want to miss out on the advantages of potassium-water-glass-bound render: Brillux silicate render combines a natural surface finish with extremely good weather resistance and impressive diffusibility.
Silicone render is an all-rounder. It combines the advantages of Rausan with the positive properties of silicate renders. This makes it ideal for use on an ETIC system, as it provides excellent water repellent properties and diffusibility. At the same time, silicone render offers extreme weather resistance, high mechanical stressability and optimum resistance to air pollutants. Another advantage of silicone render is its very low soiling tendency.
Mineral renders are a traditional, tried-and-tested top coat for ETIC systems. They have long been synonymous with good weather resistance and excellent diffusion properties. In particular, if “nicht brennbare” (non-flammable) ETIC systems based on mineral wool or mineral wool lamellas are required, Brillux Mineral Lightweight Render R/KR is the perfect choice as a top coat.
Bold
My favorite color? Bold.
In the past, bold color shades such as deep red or chocolate brown on ETICS had to be enjoyed with caution, as the degree of thermal exposure of dark surfaces was very high in the summer heat. Thanks to SolReflex, a facade with a bold color shade stays cool even in high temperatures today, as SolReflex reduces the heating of insulated facade surfaces, protecting both the reinforcement and the finishing render from excessive temperatures. With SolReflex you can now bring even the boldest color preferences to life.
Creative techniques
Creative techniques allow you to visually enhance your facade in many different ways. Thanks to its raw texture, the in-demand, trendy concrete look creates extravagant design with a modern, purist charm. Particularly modern render designs can be conjured up with a fine brush finish. This can bring the modern architecture of a house even more into focus and create a three-dimensional depth effect thanks to the graphic-like texture. Thanks to the traditional combing technique, your facade is guaranteed to look stylish. Originally used to separate different facade areas, today, it is used to texture facades evenly and decorate them individually with mosaic patterns and wavy lines. With the addition of silicon carbide, any facade can now shine like a diamond. The combination of silicon and carbon is similar to a diamond in both structure and properties. And mirror fragments can add an impressive shimmer and sparkle effect to any building facade. The small, broken mirror pieces in the render twinkle like stars on a white or colored sky.
HARD COATINGS
Clothes make the man. Facades make houses. Buildings appear particularly valuable and expressive when stone and joints play an obvious role. Ceramics and bricks have a certain radiance and still exude a prestigious atmosphere today. the external thermal insulation composite system is undeniably contemporary. Ceramic coverings and flat facing bricks combine perfectly with an exquisite or artistic facade design. Piece by piece, in an infinite variety and always with a uniquely beautiful result.
PROFILES AND BOSS PROFILES
The facade is freshly insulated – now it’s time to design. How should the large facade of the building be presented? Variety is appealing. Facade profiles and boss panels add an intriguing third dimension to thermally insulated facades. Stories are set off horizontally, bands divide the facade vertically, and windows and doors are accentuated with frames. This flatters the building structure and the eye of the beholder – and creates a truly sublime overall effect.
