Craftsmanship, innovation and aesthetics in Façades 2025 

The seventeenth edition of the annual publication of the VMRG, the trade association for metal facade construction, has been published. Façades 2025 brings together inspiring projects in which craftsmanship, innovation and aesthetics come together. Designs that shape the streetscape and skyline of today, but take into account the world of tomorrow. Common denominator of all these projects are facades in which durable aluminum and steel play the leading role.

Metal has a long lifespan and is 100% and infinitely recyclable while maintaining quality. A large percentage of the façade metal used already comes from recycled materials. This is why metal fits so well with circular building designs.

Maarten Terberg, architect/partner at EVA Architects, received the very first copy of the book from Henk Zoontjens, director at the VMRG, during Future Façade. The cover of Façades 2025 features Omega, a circular and energy-neutral office building in Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht. Maarten Terberg of EVA Architects, responsible for the design of this building: "I am very proud that our project has been selected for the cover of this book. This building is designed circular and demountable. All applied materials can be separated from each other so they can easily be replaced or reused. Also, the transparent aluminum facade with the rounded corners is not glued, but made in such a way that you can completely unscrew the facade and rebuild it in another location."

VMRG Hallmark

Façades 2025 consists of over 200 pages of diverse façade construction projects in which VMRG companies have been involved. The book is divided into non-residential construction, residential construction, renovation, transformation and solar projects. Each project indicates whether the project was realized under the VMRG Quality Mark. All companies with this quality mark deliver guaranteed quality in the field of facades. They are regularly inspected for this, both in the factory and on the building site. The European tendering directives offer scope to prescribe the VMRG Quality Mark in specifications. Every company with the VMRG Quality Mark is awarded an annual VMRG Quality Mark certificate after the inspections have been passed, so that a client can be sure that the company meets the high standards of the VMRG Quality Requirements and Recommendations. 

Durable quality

The book also reveals that the metal facade industry is continuously working to improve both the quality and circularity of facades. By offering very specific facade technology training, setting and testing high facade quality requirements and collaborating with other facade industry organizations in the Circular Facade Economy, the bar for sustainable quality is set high. 

Online version

The book can also be viewed online. The online version contains links for each project to more information about the project and about the company that was involved in that project. The VMRG website offers a sign-up option on the home page for the Inspiration Newsletter to stay informed about interesting projects each month.
