Eliane Tec: the Ventilated Facade as a great retrofit ally
Since the vintage style has established itself as a trend in contemporary times, clothes, cars, objects, decoration items and even architecture have been drinking from this source, of all that is classic and ancient. But, be issues of different generations and continue to be the subject of discussions, until it sets itself up for nostalgia ends up in need of repair and updating. in civil construction, this challenge is even greater. Preserving the look and making old buildings functional for today requires special care and a lot of budget planning to work around the surprises that may appear during the renovation.. Necessity – as the philosopher Plato said – is the mother of invention., and then came the retrofit: an innovative technique that allows renovating and updating a project without changing the base of a building. As in Eliane Tec this technique is enhanced when combined with a complete and intelligent constructive solution: a Ventilated facade.
Among the many advantages of the Ventilated Facade is the possibility of applying, in addition to new works, also in renovations. Installation of new coatings can be done without removing old ones.. The technique of moving away from the base of the building also provides more thermal comfort due to the chimney effect., where cold air enters at the bottom and warm air exits at the top, allowing continuous ventilation.

No retrofit system, the solution is synonymous with practicality and functionality, as the execution process is quick – ceramic tiles and mechanical anchors are prefabricated materials, generating less waste in the processes. The aesthetic requirement is guaranteed and the work, more sustainable, with the use of recyclable and ecologically correct materials already in the manufacturing process.
The system also facilitates façade maintenance and panel replacement., that can be performed individually. With fiberglass adhered to the back of the cladding boards, security is even greater.
Eliane Tec's Ventilated Facade system in retrofit is also present, for example, in the states of São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Santa Catarina and Ceara, and among the works are the Paranaguá Building, Residencial Canto da Lagoa, Hotel Verde Vale, grand valley building, Floripa Shopping and Fortaleza Airport. The buildings add up to more than 10 thousand m² of facade. Buildings that had their memory preserved without giving up the economy, sustainability, technology and design.
