New integrated façade system ALUCOBOND® photovoltaic

Alcan Composites in Singen and HaWi Energietechnik AG are setting new standards in energy and resource-saving construction design with their new future-oriented partnership.


ALUCOBOND® photovoltaic is a unique, integrated façade system consisting of ALUCOBOND®  composite panels and high-quality photovoltaic modules from the HaWi programme. This new solution, "Made in Germany" can be integrated in a creative way for the most differing façade designs. Modern buildings using ALUCOBOND® photovoltaic look attractive, are an architectonic eye catcher and contribute decisively towards protecting our environment. For the first time, all-inclusive individual solutions are being offered by Alcan Composites and HaWi to architects, builders and façade designers, irrespective of whether the design or the solar-electricity gain has priority.


HaWi Management, Hans Wimmer: "We are pleased that with Alcan Composites, the market leader in the field of composite panels and façade systems, we have found a partner with whom we are really able to reach our ambitious targets. Alcan's competence ideally complements our longstanding know-how and expert knowledge in photovoltaics – to the benefit of our customers."


The President of Alcan Composites Architecture Europe, Markus A. Gross: "In modern architecture, it is a question of bringing functionality, energy balance and aesthetics in line with each other. With ALUCOBOND® photovoltaic we offer builders, architects and façade designers the possibility of  meeting all these demands without having to make any compromises. Thanks to the joint development of HaWi and Alcan Composites Singen, we are proud to be taking a first step towards finding system-integrated solutions with aluminium composite panels for rear-ventilated façades."
