We created our own facade system

About us

Our company has over 30 years of experience in the field of construction. For the past 20 years, we have been involved in the development and production of façade systems. The Raketerm facade panel was born as a result of long development work, which includes a lot of work and know-how from Estonian and Finnish researchers.

In over 20 years, more than 175,000 square meters of facade products have been installed, with a new outer lining on nearly a thousand different buildings in the Baltics, Scandinavia and the United Kingdom.

In 1995, we started working with the researchers of Institute of Wood, Polymer and Textile Technology at the Tallinn University of Technology and the Insinööritoimisto Jaakonsaar enterprise in Finland, to develop new insulation materials for building facades. And so, a few years later, the facade panel Raketerm was developed, and it has become a foundation of a comprehensive system for the renovation and insulation of exterior facades.

In the years 2004-2006, our product reached a qualitatively new level as a result of applied research and product development project supported by Enterprise Estonia. As a result, the facade panel Raketerm thanks to its effective appearance, low operating costs and easy installation, has now received a warm welcome and a solid position in the Estonian facade cover market.
