FOTOBLECH - Timeline

2013: Fotoblech receives patent

FOTOBLECH combines design, functionality, and precision – ideal for modern facades, privacy, and sun protection. Lunova’s technology, patented in 2013, enables photorealistic imagery on metal surfaces – achieved solely through the precise variation of hole sizes within a fully populated matrix. With a limited range of diameters and a probability-based algorithm, smooth gradients are created efficiently during production. Technically refined and visually striking: FOTOBLECH transforms metal surfaces into images – and architecture into a statement.
