LB Light | Facade elements for historic preservation and the reconstruction of historic facades
Historic buildings tell stories and shape the character of our cities and towns. When renovating historic buildings or reconstructing historic facades, it is essential to preserve the building’s original character while also meeting modern requirements for safety, durability, and energy efficiency.
Our non-combustible facade elements are ideally suited for use in historic preservation projects as well as for the faithful reconstruction of historic facade elements. Thanks to state-of-the-art CNC manufacturing, existing profiles, cornices, moldings, pilasters, window and door frames, boss stones, keystones, and decorative stucco elements can be replicated with the highest precision or newly manufactured based on historical plans and drawings.
Thanks to flexible manufacturing processes, virtually all profile cross-sections can be reproduced with precision. This allows damaged or lost facade elements to be replaced with exact replicas without altering the building’s architectural character. At the same time, building owners and designers benefit from the technical advantages of modern materials.
The non-combustible mineral wool core provides excellent thermal insulation and meets the highest standards for structural fire protection. The reinforcement on both sides with fiberglass mesh, along with the durable special cement coating, ensures high dimensional stability, weather resistance, and longevity—properties that are particularly important in the restoration of historic buildings.
Whether it’s a listed building, a historic city villa, a Wilhelminian-style facade, a castle, a city hall, a church, or a prestigious historic building—our facade elements combine traditional architecture with modern manufacturing technology. This results in durable and historically accurate solutions that meet the high standards of historic preservation as well as the demands of contemporary construction and renovation projects.

Non-combustible facade elements with a mineral wool core – safety, thermal insulation, and long-lasting quality
The core of the facade elements consists of high-quality mineral wool. This non-combustible insulation material provides excellent thermal insulation properties and meets the highest standards for structural fire protection. At the same time, the mineral wool core helps save heating energy, increase living comfort, and sustainably improve the building’s energy efficiency. [Read more ...]
Precision CNC manufacturing for custom and freely designed facade elements
State-of-the-art CNC manufacturing technology enables us to precisely produce our non-combustible facade elements in virtually any desired shape. Whether simple profiles, intricate cornices, window surrounds, pilasters, moldings, or custom-made designs—computer-controlled machining allows us to produce even complex profile cross-sections with the highest dimensional accuracy and consistent quality.

Lightweight – easy to install and cost-effective to manufacture
Our non-combustible facade elements stand out not only for their high quality and design versatility, but also for their comparatively low weight. Thanks to their lightweight mineral wool core, these elements are much easier to transport, handle, and install than many conventional facade materials. [Read more ...]
Easy on-site adjustments—flexible in case of dimensional deviations
On a construction site, dimensional deviations in the building shell cannot always be avoided, even with careful planning. That is why our non-combustible facade elements are designed so that they can be easily and precisely adjusted on-site as needed. [Read more ...]
