Model A/B: one geometry, two orientations: the reversible concept

Model A/B is based on a clear premise: same geometry, dual orientation. This reversibility allows the profile to be installed in two different directions.

 It is currently applied to a selection of profiles from the MyWall range, all of which are designed to offer high architectural expressiveness:

• – Asteroid 
  
• – Aqua 
  
• – Waves 
  
• – River 
  
• – Galaxy 
  

Model A and Model B: two orientations, the same performance

Model B allows the geometry of Model A to be reversed, whilst maintaining the same technical and aesthetic performance. Both configurations are fully compatible with one another, allowing them to be combined without creating discontinuities or compromising watertightness.

Creative potential: when a profile becomes an expressive tool

The duality of the A/B model in selected MyWall profiles not only delivers technical efficiency: it opens up a range of aesthetic possibilities that until now required bespoke solutions.

Thanks to the reversible geometry, it is possible to: 

•    Create shifting patterns of light and shadow depending on the orientation.

•    Generate volumetric effects that come to life with natural light.

•    Design alternating visual rhythms by combining A + B.

•    Achieve a more dynamic, vibrant and personalised façade.

The building envelope ceases to be a static plane and becomes a living element that evolves with the light of day.

A breakthrough that combines technology and creativity

The incorporation of the A/B system into the Asteroid, Aqua, Waves, River and Galaxy models reinforces MyWall’s positioning as an advanced metal cladding solution, where technology and design go hand in hand.

A single overlapping system and greater freedom to design, install and execute efficient, expressive and contemporary façades.

Case Study: San Pedro de Alcántara Sports Hall  

The San Pedro de Alcántara Sports Hall project is an example of how KingZip can transform an architectural envelope into a distinctive design feature. 

A continuous envelope that flows from façade to roof 

 In this project, the KingZip profiled slats fit the curved façade with millimetre precision. But what is most impressive is that the geometry does not stop there: the envelope extends continuously from the vertical walls to the roof, creating a sense of fluidity and unity across the entire volume of the building.  

 This enveloping effect is achieved thanks to the system’s ability to curve in multiple directions and adapt to three-dimensional shapes without interruptions or visible joints, a technical feat that would be difficult to achieve with other construction systems.

 Benefits to the project  

• – Aesthetic continuity: the façade and roof are integrated into a single continuous metal skin.   

• – Geometric precision: the interlocking panels allow the architectural lines to be maintained without distortion.  

• – Speed of execution: on-site fabrication eliminates cuts, unnecessary finishing work and additional transport time.  

• – Durability and strength: the use of aluminium and interlocking systems ensures stable performance against weather conditions.
  

Project team

The San Pedro de Alcántara Sports Pavilion was made possible thanks to the joint efforts of a multidisciplinary team comprising:

• – Architecture: Estudio HUETE Arquitectura 

• – KingZip system installation: Grupo PAFER 
  

Their coordination enabled the creation of a technically precise and aesthetically seamless curved cladding, maximising the capabilities of the KingZip system.  

 Having seen it in practice, it is worth understanding why KingZip is now one of the most advanced solutions in the field of metal cladding.

What is KingZip? The technology that gives total freedom to architectural design 

KingZip is a standing seam system for façades and roofs, specifically designed to realise organic geometries with a high level of technical precision. It uses interlocking panels manufactured in continuous lengths from 1 to 150 metres, with the unique feature that they can be produced on-site thanks to mobile production units that are transported directly to the construction site.  

 This allows building envelopes to be constructed using very long panels, eliminating the need for longitudinal overlaps, which speeds up construction. 

Key features of KingZip: 

• – Total adaptability to complex geometries: it allows the creation of building envelopes with angular, convex, concave or conical architectural forms of great technical perfection. 

• – On-site fabrication: enables panels of up to 150 m without longitudinal joints, speeding up construction and avoiding fixing points.  

• – Highly durable finishes: available in 3000 or 5000 series coated aluminium alloy, or in raw aluminium, stuccoed raw aluminium and embossed raw aluminium, with the following finishes: PVDF or polyester. 

• – High performance: excellent structural, thermal and acoustic performance, and A1 fire reaction classification in accordance with standard EN 13501-1. Classified as Broof (t1/t2/t3) in accordance with standard EN 13501-5.

• –  Versatile applications: ideal for industrial, commercial and residential buildings, as well as sports facilities.  
  
  
  
  
  

KingZip, a key tool for contemporary architecture 

KingZip offers a unique combination of formal flexibility, technical performance and construction efficiency, making it an ideal solution for projects with a high architectural content. The San Pedro de Alcántara Sports Pavilion is just one example of the potential of this system, which allows for the creation of three-dimensional curved envelopes with total control and no design limitations.

In contemporary architecture, colour has become a strategic element in the design of building envelopes. Not only does it condition the visual perception of the building, but it also influences its integration into the landscape, its light behaviour and its ability to convey identity.

With this premise in mind, we present the 2026 colour chart, which celebrates the chromatic diversity of the world we inhabit and, at the same time, offers adaptable, durable and contemporary metal solutions for the buildings of the future.

 Metallics that capture light: the vibrancy of living façades   

Light is one of the most powerful materials in architecture. That is why our new chart highlights metallic finishes, capable of transforming a façade into a changing organism. Under the sun, these tones vibrate, intensify and generate a luminous effect that brings dynamism without being garish.

These are colours that are not only seen: they are felt. They change with the time of day, the season and the weather. They allow the building to interact with its surroundings and become an active part of the urban or natural landscape.

These shades allow you to:

-Convey the idea of luminosity, adding dynamism without being garish.

-Improve the volumetric reading of the building according to the incidence of sunlight.

-Integrate into urban contexts without losing architectural presence.

Two new exclusive KingZip aluminium finishes have been added to this family, expanding the creative possibilities for continuous envelopes, roofs and high-performance façades.

Light Oak: natural aesthetics with advanced technical features   

Contemporary architecture increasingly seeks an emotional connection with natural materials. However, this quest is not always compatible with the technical demands of current projects.

That is why we are introducing the new light oak wood effect finish: a surface that conveys the warmth, texture and naturalness of wood, but with the durability, stability and resistance of metal. A solution designed for spaces that require closeness, humanity and balance without sacrificing efficiency.

Four sensory universes for intentional design   

 The 2026 colour chart is organised not only by shades, but also by sensations. Because colour is not just a detail: it is an experience. Each colour group is designed to accompany a different architectural intention:   

1.Clarity and freshness

Whites, cool tones and sands that evoke purity, lightness and serenity. Ideal for projects seeking luminosity, visual cleanliness and a discreet but elegant presence.

2.Nature and tradition

Reddish, green and tones inspired by autumn, forests and wineries. A palette that connects with the earth, with what remains. Perfect for rural, heritage environments or projects seeking authenticity.

3.Horizons and calm

Blues reminiscent of open skies and calm seas. Colours that invite contemplation, tranquillity and spaciousness. An ideal choice for spaces seeking to convey well-being and balance.

4.Solidity and modernity

Greys, aluminium, rock, stone and metallics. The essence of contemporary architecture: sober, precise, technological. A palette that speaks of innovation, rigour and character.

 An invitation to design with diversity, harmony and personality   

The new 2026 colour chart is more than a tool: it is an inspiration. A way of understanding colour as an architectural element capable of transforming the perception of space, reinforcing the identity of a project and generating lasting emotions.

It is a palette designed for architects seeking colour solutions that combine technical performance, aesthetic coherence and expressive capacity. A palette that allows you to design envelopes that dialogue with the environment, reinforce the identity of the project and add long-term value.

Every line, every volume and every texture in a building tells part of its story. But if there is one element that can radically transform the perception of an envelope, it is colour. The right shade not only defines the aesthetics of a façade, but also amplifies its character, connects with the environment and enhances the identity of the entire project.

“Colour is the place where our brain and the universe meet.”

Paul Klee

Painter

At Teczone, we know this. That’s why we’ve created the TZ Colour Chart, designed to offer you maximum creative freedom without compromising on the technical performance required by today’s architectural envelopes.

A palette designed to inspire and withstand

Our colour chart is not just a selection of colours, it is a tool for projecting emotions, integrating into the landscape or, why not, becoming a visual landmark.

It includes a wide range of shades:

• – Contemporary metallics such as Aluminium Grey or Light Copper, ideal for avant-garde buildings.
• – Corten imitation, perfect for industrial environments or projects seeking to integrate more organic textures.
• – Vibrant colours such as Lake Blue or Traffic Red, designed to stand out and create visual impact.

But choosing the colour is not enough if its durability is not guaranteed. That is why each finish in our chart is associated with state-of-the-art coatings, which can be selected according to the degree of aggressiveness of the environment:

• – Marine, industrial, urban or rural: each context has its challenges and our solutions respond to all of them.
• – High UV and corrosion resistance: ensuring that the colour remains vibrant and the material intact over time.

Beyond colour: discover how the MyWall system works

Colour choice is only part of the process. To ensure that the envelope meets all expectations — both aesthetic and technical — it is essential to understand how each component works together.

• Sandwich panel with QuadCore® core: offers high thermal insulation, with European certifications that back up its performance.
• Omega profile: the invisible connector that guarantees the structural stability of the system.
• MyWall: the architectural skin that gives shape, colour and texture to the envelope, with fully customised options.

Watch the video and discover how the MyWall system combines performance and creative freedom.

Projects that are already making a difference

Examples such as the San Vicente del Raspeig Municipal Sports Centre demonstrate how our solutions not only meet technical requirements, but also transform buildings into architectural landmarks. There, the interplay between geometry and light turns the envelope into a dynamic system that evolves throughout the day.

The Steel Framing system from Teczone | Kingspan uses cold-formed galvanized steel profiles as its main structural elements. These profiles are assembled either in the workshop or on site using self-drilling screws, allowing for an orderly and repeatable construction process.
It is a pre-industrialized and lightweight approach, designed to improve efficiency and quality throughout the building process.

The solution is made up of three integrated subsystems: the lightweight profile structure (TZ-Steel Framing); the interior linings, usually with plasterboard; and the “dry” exterior cladding, on which traditional finishes can be applied.
This modularity makes the system compatible with conventional steel or concrete building typologies.

2. Where it adds the most value: typical applications

Although it can be applied to larger buildings, Steel Framing is optimized for constructions of up to four storeys (ground floor + three).
Its most common uses include single-family and low-rise residential housing, offices, educational and healthcare buildings, indoor offices within industrial units, refurbishments, vertical extensions, lightweight roofs, and auxiliary structures.
Because it is compatible with commonly used façade and cladding systems, it integrates easily into mixed projects.

Example project

At Teczone | Kingspan, we highlight a development of 28 single-family homes (4,200 m² built) executed with 104 tonnes of lightweight steel structures, illustrating the scale and type of projects that can be carried out using this system.

3. On-site and operational advantages

Timelines and work organization

The system’s lightweight, pre-industrialized nature promotes component standardization and can help shorten construction times.
Assembly requires no heavy machinery and generally less highly specialized labor.
Because of the reduced structural weight, foundations are usually lighter, simplifying the process and reducing project duration.

Precision and integration of installations

Custom manufacturing (with round or oval punchings available) ensures dimensional accuracy and leaves the structure ready to accommodate building services within walls and floors, without chases.
This approach contributes to a cleaner, better-planned worksite.

4. Sustainable management and logistics of the system

The high structural efficiency allows for reduced steel consumption through optimized sections, while incorporating a significant proportion of recycled material.
Its low weight and optimized palletization reduce transport volume and therefore emissions.
As a dry-construction system, it also lowers water consumption and waste generation on site.
Reduced reliance on heavy equipment further minimizes environmental impact.

5. Range of profiles and standard configurations

Walls (interior and exterior)

Walls are built using a framework of horizontal and vertical profiles: C-shaped studs and U-shaped tracks, forming closed structural panels.
Lintels for openings (doors and windows) are made from two C-profiles forming a closed section.
As a reference, ranges include C-studs with web depths from 50 to 175 mm, flanges from 50 to 75 mm, thicknesses from 0.8 to 1.5 mm, and matching U-tracks.

Floors

Floors follow the same logic: C-beams, U-edge tracks, and cross braces (in C or U), joined with L-shaped connectors.
Depending on spans and loads, reference sections for beams typically range from 175 to 250 mm webs, 50 to 100 mm flanges, and 1.5 to 2.5 mm thicknesses.

Roofs

Flat or pitched roofs use C-beams, U-tracks, and bracing members.
For mono-pitch or gabled non-habitable roofs, trusses or lattices with C-profiles in the chords and diagonals help optimize the structure.

6. Engineering and technical support

The Kingspan | Teczone Technical Department offers comprehensive support: advice on system design, construction details, calculations, and structural sizing.
We also collaborate with external engineering firms specialized in designing or adapting projects to Steel Framing.
This partnership facilitates the integration of the system within existing project teams.

We propose an industrialized building approach based on galvanized steel profiles, ideal for low- and mid-rise projects where precision, lightness, and trade coordination are key.
The combination of profile catalogue, European regulatory compliance, efficient logistics, and technical support makes Steel Framing a system capable of integrating seamlessly with common building materials and finishes — bringing order, efficiency, and design flexibility to the construction process.

Discover how the envelope can be your first chapter

When we think of a building, we tend to imagine its volume, structure or function. But what happens when we look beyond the obvious and focus on its façade? That architectural skin that not only protects, but also communicates, excites and transforms.

“Architecture is the wise, correct and magnificent interplay of volumes under light.”

Le Corbusier

Arquitecto

At Teczone, we believe that every envelope is an opportunity to tell a story. To create a dialogue between the building, its surroundings and those who inhabit or pass through it. And to inspire you to explore new possibilities, we have created the Architectural Skin Design Book, a carefully curated selection of 14 real projects where envelopes are not just a technical component, but a creative resource that defines the identity of the space.

Projects that inspire, materials that connect

From airports to sports pavilions, office buildings and residential buildings, this lookbook brings together examples where Teczone’s Mywall and IBEO-250 solutions have played a leading role. The aim? To show you how different geometries, rhythms and finishes can transform the perception of a building, adapt to its surroundings and enhance its functionality.

One of the most emblematic cases is the San Vicente del Raspeig Sports Pavilion. A project that stands out not only for its formal purity, but also for how its façade becomes a dynamic system that changes throughout the day. Thanks to the superimposition of two geometries—a horizontal striped exterior and an interior checkerboard pattern—and the interplay of natural and artificial light, its skin offers a changing perception, almost as if the building were breathing, adapting to the weather and the viewer’s gaze.

This is just one example of how architecture can go beyond form, integrating materials and design to create experiences.

Key points, examples and solutions

What if light were one of the most powerful materials in architectural design?

“The sun never knew its greatness until it fell on the face of a building.”
— Louis Kahn

Louis Isadore Kahn

Architect

At a time when energy efficiency, sensory experience and formal identity intersect in every project, there remains an essential resource that is often left out of the plans: natural light used as an expressive tool.

We design complex structures, choose finishes, define materials. But…

how much time do we spend imagining how that façade will react to the hours of the day, the seasons, the angle of the sun?

What if form not only defined space, but also the way that space reveals itself over time?

This monograph was created to reflect on these questions:

Designing with light is composing with time.

When light strikes from the east, it sculpts gently. When it comes from the west, it dramatises with shadow. At midday, it flattens; at dawn, it reveals textures.

Colour changes. Perception changes too.

We are not just talking about solar orientation. We are talking about creating rhythm, vibration and movement with slats, folds and perforations. About designing façades that breathe, respond and excite.

A real case study: San Vicente del Raspeig

In the sports pavilion in San Vicente del Raspeig, two overlapping geometries — a horizontal outer layer and an inner checkerboard layer — create a dynamic envelope

During the day, the white reflects a clean, vibrant light.

At night, the interior lighting filters through, tinged with blue, transforming the perception.

The façade not only covers, interprets and dialogues with the sun, but also responds with subtlety.
