Originally developed for NASA spacecraft, aluminum honeycomb has become a staple in modern facade systems, delivering rigidity and flatness without the weight penalty. In BIPV applications, manufacturers like Mitrex use it as a structural core, allowing a single panel to function as both cladding and an energy-generating component.

Mitrex, North America’s largest manufacturer of Building-Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV), has partnered with Gensler, the global architecture and design firm, to develop its latest innovation: eFacade PRO+ with Honeycomb Backing. This collaboration sets a new standard for solar facades that combine design freedom, high performance, and sustainability.
