Krion
Porcelanosa
This exterior wall cladding system is particularly useful against adverse weather conditions, and the development of advanced fixing systems allows Krion to be used in ventilated facades. In addition, it can be thermoformed to create different curves, shapes, or textures. Krion is 100 percent recyclable, and made of an ecological material that is available in a wide range of colors.

UltraClear glass offers maximum clarity and color neutrality, making it virtually invisible. Without the green tint of standard glass, UltraClear allows for picture-perfect views. It can be combined with low-e coatings, and is fabricated, laminated, and heat-treated like standard glass.

The Diamond White PVB interlayer is a single-layer film that offers the safety of a laminated construction as well as a uniform opaqueness and highly reflective surface. The optical properties are better than that of coated or fritted glass, because the glass does not need to be tempered, which results in less optical distortion.
