Architectural rehabilitation
The restoration of our architectural heritage is one of the values that mark the development of a society and that allows us to highlight the recent and past history of a country’s society.
In practice, it means facing great challenges on a daily basis, derived fundamentally from the great variety of structural typologies and materials used in this type of construction, many of which are no longer in use.
Architectural rehabilitation
Ventilated façade
The need to rehabilitate the architectural envelopes of old buildings in order to provide these buildings, or new constructions, with aesthetic finishes in line with requirements and with an energy efficiency that in many cases was lacking.
Ceramic façade
Ceramic is a very versatile material that offers a wide range of formats, colours and finishes. Ceramic tiles for façades can be manufactured by extrusion or pressing. Although the façade cladding is ceramic, it is necessary that the joints with other architectural elements such as windows, doors, etc., are correctly executed.
In the construction of a cladding using any ventilated façade system, one of the most important aspects are the construction details, as these guarantee a good performance of the same, as well as excellent finishes.
Details such as starting profiles, ventilation grilles, corners or door and window trims guarantee the quality of the final work.
The HPL panel is a rigid phenolic exterior façade panel with a decorative surface on both sides.
Solid and elastic, these homogeneous rigid panels are manufactured using thermosetting resins reinforced with cellulose fibre for strength and durability.

The composite panel is a panel composed of two aluminium sheets joined by a core of thermoplastic resins.
Its use is indicated both for the construction of façades (ventilated, semi-ventilated or watertight) and for the cladding of interior spaces, both in new buildings and in refurbishments.
Stone
Another possibility for cladding is the use of natural stone. Stone can also be used in renovation and new construction.
Fibre cement façade
Fibre cement boards are very strong and lightweight HD reinforced cement panels. Thanks to the versatility conferred by their large format of up to 3.100 x 1.250 mm, they can be cut to suit the needs of the project and applied to all types of cladding in new buildings, in the rehabilitation of facades, and in the use of decorative interiors.

Historic buildings
The restoration of historic monuments is an activity of great singularity in the world of rehabilitation that requires not only extensive professional experience, but also great knowledge of historic materials and their conservation and rehabilitation guidelines.
The treatment of damp, the recovery of volumes, waterproofing and consolidation are perhaps the most representative part of the usual construction specialities in this type of building.
Civil engineering
In Europe, major engineering works are commonplace from Roman times to the industrial era. These works have consisted of road, industrial or water transport infrastructures. Works such as bridges, aqueducts, canals, factories, etc. have been built and are still standing today for more than 2000 years.
All these works, depending on the environment where they have been, the time that has passed or the use that has been given to them, have suffered deterioration to a greater or lesser extent, requiring the implementation of restorative measures or, in extreme cases, even structural reinforcement.
Industrial facilities
Refurbishing an industrial building involves the complex process of remodelling an already built environment in order to modernise it by adding value to it. This process involves the application of knowledge that is not only architectural, as this type of intervention is approached from different points of view, transforming inefficient spaces into more versatile and functional spaces adapted to current needs. The refurbishment or renovation of a building is a complex process that requires meticulous planning and a prior study of the work to be carried out, in order to anticipate any possible points of conflict that may arise.
This aspect is particularly important if it is an industrial, commercial or hotel establishment that cannot cease its daily activity, which adds an additional difficulty, particularly notorious in terms of health and safety.
