Facade Design with Architectural Mesh

Architectural mesh from GKD gives facades a unique combination of design, functionality, and sustainability. Acting as a second skin over the building envelope, it provides effective solar, privacy, and glare protection while adding visual accents. Whether as a ventilated façade, media façade, or sun protection system – our meshes create vibrant surfaces and support energy-efficient architectural concepts.

Your Benefits with GKD Facade Solutions

  • Effective solar and glare protection: Metal mesh reflects sunlight and reduces heat gain – for a pleasant indoor climate and lower energy consumption.
  • Design freedom & transparency: Depending on the mesh type, dynamic light and shadow effects emerge – creating facades with depth and structure.
  • Durable & low-maintenance: Stainless steel and aluminum meshes are corrosion-resistant, UV-stable, and easy to maintain – ideal for long-lasting façade solutions.
  • Safety & certification: GKD facade systems meet the highest safety standards and are certified with general building approvals (abZ).
  • Versatile mounting systems: Whether with tension profiles, frames, or custom solutions – our systems are flexible and easy to install.

Versatile Applications

  • Ventilated façades
  • Fixed or movable sun protection façades
  • Double façades with mesh between glass
  • Three-dimensional façade shapes
  • Transparent media façades with LED technology (MEDIAMESH®)
  • Fall protection for open façade areas
