Hofmann Facades Uhpc Stone Veneer
UHPC STONE VENEER
UHPC STONE VENEER
Thin lightweight composite facade panels made from natural stone veneer backed with ultra-high performance concrete.
This next generation natural stone-faced precast solution is bringing prefabrication for light weight yet classic stone looking facades to another level. It is suited for complex three-dimensional geometries calling for specifications beyond current size or weight limitations.
Ultra-thin, full floor height elements no longer requiring tower cranes for installation help maximize floor space use while guaranteeing long-term durability and thermal load mitigation.
