InnovativeWe are the only cement composite manufacturer in the world who regularly launches new façade systems and products, in a continuing effort to meet the architects’ evolving wishes. We maintain close contact with architects to listen to their concerns and develop top quality products to their specifications.All products are fully tested with long term weathering tests before they are brought to the marketplace. These quality products help the designer to bridge the gap from conceptualization to realization and to better satisfy his customers’ needs and design desires.

FascinatingSWISSPEARL’s unique formulation and revolu-tionary coloration processes were pioneered by Eternit Switzerland. They are the foundation of the remarkable façade panel range, which offers great creative freedom in the design of the faça-de. One outstanding characteristic in particular are the unique surface aspects, which are ideally suited to express the character of each building.

Unique with long time proven qualitySWISSPEARL CARAT SL is the new generation and the unparalleled paragon standard for integrally coloured cement composite panels, available now in more than 30 shades. The mono-lithic material aspect with its delicate vein texture provides a fascinating and noble expression to buildings with special character.SWISSPEARL REFLEX is a usually also coloured through panel core with an iridescent surface. Changing lighting and angle of vision produce fascinating nuances in the colours.

SWISSPEARL has an unmatched competence and know-how regarding special colours. In the past 15 years, more than 2000 customized colours were supplied according to architects’ specification.SWISSPEARL NOBILIS launched as world wide innovation already in 1987 bears a translucent coating. The smooth and semi-matt surface finish and the visible natural texture of the cement composite impart an unrivalled expressiveness to the material.SWISSPEARL XPRESSIV is a panel with a very vivid cement composite structure.SWISSPEARL PLANEA has an opaque coating. Clear, strong colours and the matte surface finish are the characteristics of the uniform aspect of this colour range.For each of these surface aspects, the high quality coating on a pure acrylic base assures high resistance to weather conditions and ult-raviolet rays.

100% environmentally friendlyThe large-size cement composite panels are mainly made of mineral raw materials (Portland cement and lime stone), water and air. Since more than 20 years high quality non-toxic fibres have been used to reinforce the cement core. The manufacturing process based on a closed water cycle and a slow natural 28 days curing requires little energy. The Swiss high tech coloration and finishing technologies are water born whilst ensuring an optimal behaviour and long lasting quality of the panel along with excellent colour stability. Therefore, neither the raw materials nor the production process nor the finished products contain any dangerous substances.The authorized Distributors have a computer programme which reckons the lowest panel requirements according to the architect’s project specific panel sizes. Once they were – easily – in-stalled, the SWISSPEARL systems optimized for the ventilated, insulated rain-screen application provide the key to energy conserving solutions both for winter and summer; they are practically maintenance free during their whole lifespan of at least 40 years. And finally, the ultimate dismantling of the panel system is as straight forward as its initial installation. The process to fully recycle the products in cement plants has been successfully tested in Switzerland.The grey energy used per m2 façade of the complete product cycle is only 125 MJ.

Reliable excellence and serviceThe long time proven superior quality of the SWISSPEARL ventilated façade systems is backed by a unique global quality approach, where the quality standards of each sub process are defined and controlled from the selection of raw material and system components until the façade is installed.The quality and range of products is matched by our superior specialized technical service in Nie-derurnen, Switzerland. We are always available to answer any queries related to the SWISS-PEARL systems. Our authorized distributors and trained partners throughout the world have the professional «know how» to support architects and contractors in designing and installing high class, unique façades.SWISSPEARL – not just a manufacturer – a performing partner dedicated to transposing the architects’ visions into attractive façades for decades to come.
