Cladding tomorrow's buildings, today

China Daily | Updated: 2015-01-21 07:55

The innovative new buildings that have risen in China in the past decade and pushed the limits of engineering and architectural design have paralleled the country's emergence as the world's second-largest economy. The materials used in their distinctive facades are essential elements of these modern landmarks.

"We have a degree of parallelism with the textile industry because we are in the business of dressing up buildings," said Urs Lehner, CEO of Swisspearl. "With a large selection of premium panels used in facades, we consider ourselves more 'pret-a-porter' rather than haute couture because we offer a very simple system of installation."

Swisspearl is a leading Swiss manufacturer of cement composite facade systems for high-end architecture. It works closely with renowned international firms on projects that use the company's long-lasting facade solutions through a wide range of conceptual possibilities. Two major projects in China have showcased its products.
