Precision Ceramics for Modern Facade Architecture
Tonwerk Introduces the New TAGSTEN Collection
With TAGSTEN, Tonwerk expands its portfolio with an innovative ceramic facade panel designed for modern building facades. The new facade system combines the clean aesthetics of contemporary architecture with the proven performance of high-quality architectural ceramics.
The defining feature of TAGSTEN is its distinctive U-shaped profile. This unique geometry creates a calm and homogeneous facade appearance with precise lines and a striking sense of depth. The result is a facade that impresses both up close and from a distance through its clear structure and premium material quality.
The ceramic facade panels are manufactured using an extrusion process and fired at high temperatures. This production method ensures dimensionally accurate, durable, and robust ceramic elements with consistently high quality.
TAGSTEN is available in two formats and three exclusive colors:
- 500 × 240 × 30/25 mm
- 400 × 240 × 30/25 mm
The U-shaped ceramic elements are mechanically fixed to a rear-support substructure. This installation method provides a secure, long-lasting, and highly precise facade solution that meets the highest standards of construction quality and execution.
In addition to its architectural appeal, the ceramic surface offers outstanding technical performance. It is UV-resistant, easy to maintain, and highly resistant to weathering. Thanks to its low water absorption, TAGSTEN creates a durable building facade with minimal maintenance requirements.
Architecture with Clarity and Depth
With its precise geometry, premium ceramic surface, and balanced proportions, TAGSTEN opens up new possibilities for the design of contemporary residential, commercial, and public buildings.
TAGSTEN also sets high standards in terms of durability and resilience. The facade system achieves hail resistance class HW 4 according to the VKF classification, meeting demanding requirements for the safety and longevity of modern facade systems.
Three exclusive color options are currently available: Dunefal, offering a subtle sense of warmth; Rodsten, bringing a distinctive and timeless brick-inspired elegance to facades; and Sandholm, combining understated modernity with natural harmony.
With TAGSTEN, Tonwerk adds a facade solution to its portfolio that combines architectural freedom, technical performance, and the long-term durability of ceramic building materials within a single system.
