On Thursday, March 5, a training course dedicated to ventilated façades was held, organised by Abet Laminati in collaboration with Federlegno Arredo Eventi and led by speaker Gunther Gantioler.

The event recorded strong participation, with 24 architects attending in person and more than 450 connected online, confirming the strong interest of the design community in topics related to the building envelope and its performance.

During the course, participants explored design principles, construction systems and materials used in ventilated façades, highlighting their role not only as an element of contemporary architectural design but also as an effective solution for building protection, improved thermo-hygrometric comfort and energy efficiency.

Particular attention was paid to the issues of ventilation, insulation and the durability of the façade, as well as the effects of ventilated façades on summer and winter comfort and on the energy performance of the building envelope.

For participants attending in person, the day concluded with a visit to Abet Laminati’s production facilities and company museum, offering the opportunity to gain further insight into the company’s manufacturing processes and history.
