About innoETICS

innoETICS is a method for energy retrofits on highly ornamented or architecturally significant buildings. It applies an exterior thermal insulation system (ETICS/SATE) while aiming to preserve the facade's original appearance, a challenge on protected or distinctive properties.

The approach reproduces moldings and decorative elements using digital scanning and industrial manufacturing so the facade can retain its appearance while improving energy efficiency and indoor comfort.

How the process works

The process is organized into several phases:

  • Technical assessment of the building
  • 3D scanning
  • Digital design of replacement pieces
  • Manufacturing
  • Installation and related work

Documented projects

The company documents several projects, mostly in Donostia-San Sebastián, with before-and-after comparisons:

  • Pilot project at Zurriola 22, Donostia
  • Gran Vía 16, Donostia
  • Secundino Esnaola 20, Donostia
  • Zabaleta 2, Donostia

The company also mentions other projects and preliminary studies without further location or project details.

Partner network

innoETICS seeks to work with technical specifiers and facade-renovation or installation companies. It offers specifiers an introduction to the method and project-specific technical documentation for energy-retrofit designs on ornate facades.
