Facades from
BENEDICT + RIVA

Mullion-transom facades

The mullion-transom facade is the most common construction method in metal construction for erecting large-scale glass facades with a filigree profile view. Both classic vertical divisions and architectural free forms are possible in the production of mullion-transom facades.

Panoramic Glazing

Room-high glass constructions in evermore daring shapes and sizes - this is what BENEDICT + RIVA has dedicated itself to with its panoramic glazing product group. Maximum transparency combined with thermal insulation glazing and a high level of operating and safety comfort are standardized product features. Panoramic facades are a further development of the classic mullion and transom facade. Panoramic facades are suitable for the premium segment of villas and buildings with a prestigious character.

Ventilated curtain walls

Ventilated curtain walls are considered to be technically high-quality and sustainably economical facade systems. A rear-ventilated facade significantly reduces the heating energy consumption of a building and thus enables considerable CO2 savings. In addition to their outstanding structural and physical properties, ventilated curtain walls offer almost unlimited architectural design possibilities.

Element facades

Element facades are modules that are pre-assembled at the factory and essentially consist of the frame, the glazing, the sealing system and the connecting elements. The individual facade elements are simply hung and aligned on the construction site. Thanks to the high degree of prefabrication of unitized facades, individual and large-scale glass facades can be transported to any location in the world at low cost and installed in the shortest possible time, regardless of the weather.

Structural-Glazing-Facades

BENEDICT + RIVA offers the option of a frameless glass facade with an all-glass look and maximum transparency to fulfill architects' visions of dispensing with the steel or aluminum supporting structure in structural glass construction. In the design of a structural glazing facade, there are no steel or aluminum mullions at all. Transparent stiffening elements are used as vertical glass mullions, so-called glass fins, with extremely slim cross-sections and high rigidity, cantilevered from floor to ceiling.

Point fixed facades

INPOINT stands for point-fixed glazing. The visual appearance of frameless glazing comes very close to the preferences of architects and planners to create a seemingly floating supporting structure that is detached from the glass surface. Our INPOINT glazing system was developed for point-fixed vertical facades. It is a symbiosis of stainless steel and glass. The point fixings are made of high-quality stainless steel and are suitable for the installation of insulating glass. The supporting structure consists of a back-tensioned supporting structure and cable ties as well as special constructions from civil engineering.

Fire-resistant facades

Fire-resistant facades of fire resistance classes F30, G30 and for use as EI60 and EW60 fire-resistant facades do not differ visually from conventional mullion-transom facades in metal construction. Fire-resistant facades have an inserted non-combustible dam strip and dam layer strips in the rebate area. This means that fire-resistant facades can be combined with conventional mullion-transom facades at any transitions.

Bulletproof facades

Bulletproof facades, which are designed with an increased requirement for resistance classes, fulfill a special protective function. The type of protection required for people and property is graded according to certain resistance classes. Our bulletproof facades display the corresponding certification stamp.

Earthquake-tested facades

If glass facades are to be installed on a building in an earthquake-prone region, our engineers use the future location to determine the possible load caused by an earthquake. With this information, it is possible to calculate the extent to which cutting forces and deformations will stress a planned earthquake-tested glass facade.

Passive house facades

Passive house facades enable a comfortable living climate by allowing natural daylight to enter the building and dispensing the need for an active heating system. The certified passive house facades FW 50+.SI and FW 60+.SI offer building owners, architects and investors the option of a large-area glass facade or panoramic glazing.

Textile facades

Textile facades can be installed as ventilated curtain facades, as textile solar protection facades or as printed and backlit media facades. Textile facade systems can permanently cover windows, glass facades and wall surfaces on buildings. They are also a profitable advertising medium as a media facade.
