Swiss Excellence - Superior Durability

Swiss engineering, rigorous testing and highest quality material and craftsmanship secure the durability of Solskin in all conditions.
Our stainless steel rod net structure withstands even the heaviest of wind loads and our compliant soft material actuators absorb all external forces, noiseless and without being damaged.
highly resistant corrosion and UV light, designed for decades of operational excellence Solskin is a safe choice for highest quality architecture.

Solskin Design

ENGINEERED

IN

SWITZERLAND 

Compliant design of the soft robotic actuation

With its unique actuation system Solskin unlocks new capabilities only possible with a moving system. As a compliant actuation mechanism however this does not become a liability or introduce weak points. Imagine Solskin’s actuator similar to a human muscle, which can be stiffened under loads but does not break under force. Large loads, for example wind get absorbed in damped vibrations, similar to how tree branches move in a storm without breaking.

Tested under all conditions for up to 100 years

More than 13 iterations of Solskin have been tested in real conditions for their durability and long term performance. In our in-house testing laboratory and in certified testing Labs in Switzerland all parts of our Solskin are put to the test.
A range of installations in different climatic zones such as Alpine, coastal and desert environments should provide us with even more insights to create the best possible product.
Our lifetime tests are currently conducted to simulate 100 years of operations.
