SOLAR CLADDING & SPANDREL

Architectural Power for Every Façade Surface

ClearVue Solar Cladding and Spandrel are high performance building envelope materials that replace conventional façade surfaces while generating clean electricity with no additional structure required.

Solar Cladding replicates colour, brick, marble, granite, and timber finishes, bringing energy generation to façade elements traditionally limited to a purely decorative role.

Solar Spandrel delivers a sleek, uniform aesthetic in pure-black* and can be configured to maximise energy output.

Both products are engineered for like-for-like integration into standard façade framing systems. Certified to the most comprehensive BIPV façade certification suite available.

*Pure-black Solar Spandrel prioritises visual uniformity. Energy yield is moderately reduced compared to higher-efficiency configurations.

AESTHETIC BEAUTY

Colour, Material & Texture Matching

ClearVue offers a broad lineup of cladding colours, textures and materials to suit any architectural style whilst allowing energy generation across the entire building envelope.

The result: more active surface area, significantly lower operational carbon, and zero compromise on design.

Project-specific sizing and bespoke colour options are available for projects over 1,000 m².

THE PRODUCTS

Two Products, One Platform

Solar Spandrel and Solar Cladding share the same certified BIPV panel platform delivering architectural flexibility and maximum energy output.

Solar Spandrel

Solar Spandrel delivers up to 200 Wp/m² from standard spandrel zones. The ClearVue thermal management junction box ensures IP68 performance. Double-glazed unit options are available to meet thermal envelope requirements.

Solar Cladding

Solar Cladding replaces brick, marble, granite, timber or a colour façade finishes with BIPV panels that generate clean electricity while preserving the architect’s design intent. Project-specific sizing available for installations from 1,000 m².

Integrated Platform

Generated DC electricity feeds into the ClearVue Thermal Management Junction Box on the frame edge, connecting directly to building electrical systems via micro-inverter or string inverter configurations.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Engineered to Perform

Every ClearVue Cladding and Spandrel panel is manufactured to IEC 61215 and IEC 61730 standards, with TÜV SÜD fire classification and a 12-year product warranty and a 30-year performance warranty.

BIPV FAÇADE PERFORMANCE

Replace Any Façade Material. Generate Clean Power.

Solar Cladding and Spandrel deliver up to 200 Wp/m² from the same surface area as conventional cladding turning every opaque façade zone into a clean energy asset. Available in material finishes that match any architectural language, with no premium structural requirements.

APPLICATIONS

Designed for Every Façade Application

Solar Cladding and Spandrel integrate directly into unitised and stick curtain wall systems, new build or retrofit whilst replacing conventional façade materials.

Unitised and Stick Curtain Walls

Full-height commercial and institutional façades. Solar Cladding and Spandrel panels integrate with standard unitised and stick-built curtain wall framing systems.

Retrofit

Retrofit existing buildings with Solar Cladding and Spandrel panels that restore building envelopes while adding solar generation without compromising aesthetics.

Seamlessly Integrated

Cladding can be created without solar technology for shaded areas to ensure the full façade is matching.

PROJECTS

Designed for Every Industry

Solar Cladding and Spandrel integrate into commercial, institutional, and residential façade systems as a direct replacement for conventional cladding and spandrel materials.

Commercial Buildings

Commercial towers and office complexes balancing world-class façade aesthetics with zero-energy building goals.

Residential Façades

High-end residential and multi-residential developments requiring premium façade finishes alongside net-zero energy performance targets.

Mixed Used Buildings

Retail, hospitality and mixed-use developments where façade aesthetics and energy performance are both critical design requirements.
