Elemex Architectural Facade Systems is a North American leader in high-performance building envelope solutions, including building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV). Based in London, Ontario, we engineer and manufacture Solstex® — our solar facade system — alongside Ceramitex® (sintered ceramic) and Alumitex® (aluminum) facade systems.
Solstex® harnesses the power of the sun by integrating high-efficiency photovoltaic panels directly into a building’s facade rather than its roof. Developed in partnership with Onyx Solar, a global leader in photovoltaic glass technology with 500+ projects worldwide, Solstex® generates up to 16.5 W/sq.ft., earns up to five LEED credits, and delivers energy savings that typically cover installation costs within 10–12 years. Available in 18 architectural colors across two panel series (F-Series and K-Series), Solstex® gives architects and developers unmatched design flexibility while reducing dependence on fossil fuels.
Powered by our proprietary Unity® attachment technology — a pressure-equalized rainscreen system — Solstex® integrates seamlessly with our other facade systems for flush, multi-material designs. Lightweight (3.5–5.5 lbs/sq.ft.), weather-resistant, and independently tested to exceed IEC standards, Solstex® is engineered for the most demanding sustainable building projects across North America. From technical specification to final installation, Elemex provides the structural integrity and technical support to bring solar-integrated facades to life.
