About the Project

BRESAER developed a cost-effective, adaptable and industrialized “envelope system” for buildings refurbishment.

The BRESAER’s envelope (for façades and roofs) included a combination of active and passive pre-fabricated solutions, which were integrated in a versatile lightweight structural mesh. This new technology proved to significantly reduce the building’s primary energy consumption and the Greenhouse emissions while improving indoor environment quality through thermal, acoustic, lighting comfort and air quality at the same time. With the BRESAER system the whole building is governed by an innovative Building Energy Management System, which manages all the different envelope functions, the energy facilities of the building and monitors the energy generated.
