Single colour
High-quality, uniform colour finishes that combine aesthetics and performance for a subtle and cohesive façade integration.
Custom colour
Ultimate design freedom with our solar facade collections and custom options
Colour options
Unique colour possibilities for every facade
With innovative colour technology, Solarix offers a wide range of colours and designs, opening up a world of new possibilities for facades.
Multi colour
Dynamic colour combinations that enhance architecture and give every design a distinct character.
Black
Panels ranging from matte to gloss, designed for a refined and seamless façade integration.
Custom colour
For specific colours or finishes beyond our collection, we offer custom solutions.
From design to production
How Solarix delivers custom solutions
Step 2: Evaluation
Our design team will determine the best approach to achieve the desired colour, assessing whether it can be selected from our standard collections, sourced from our R&D library, or developed as a custom solution specifically for your project.
Step 3: Sampling
Each colour trajectory is unique, but we typically produce 3–5 samples. These may include multiple variations on a single sample, or a full colour or design executed on an individual sample.
Step 4: Evaluation
The samples are evaluated for colour accuracy, finish, and overall visual impact within the architectural context. Based on this evaluation, we jointly determine which colour(s) and design direction best align with the project.
Step 5: Production
Following approval, we initiate the production of one or more active panels in the selected colour to validate performance and energy yield. In consultation, additional aesthetic or active panels can be produced to support stakeholder presentations and project approval processes.
Projects in development
Custom colours via RAL or material reference
RAL colour matching
When developing a custom colour based on a RAL reference, the colour is translated onto a Solarix panel and refined through multiple samples to achieve an accurate match, optimised for glass with careful consideration of light transmission and performance.
Material reference colour matching
In colour matching based on a material sample, the colour is developed from a physical reference such as brickwork, natural stone, or other facade materials. These materials often contain subtle nuances, tonal variations, and textures, allowing for different approaches, such as multi-colour patterns or the use of alternative glass types, including matte or textured finishes.
Solarix coloured solar panels typically generate between 45% and 95% of the output of a standard panel, depending on the tint and colour technology. Colour and light transmission are optimised throughout the customisation process to meet project requirements.
Solarix designers and engineers have years of experience in developing and applying colour concepts for solar facades.
We continuously push the boundaries of what’s possible in colour, challenging existing technologies without compromising performance. Through ongoing testing and innovation, we optimise both visual outcomes and energy yield, ensuring that every design choice is backed by proven performance.
Completed projects
Reference projects with custom colours
Facade Hotel Laudinella, St.Moritz
For the facade, a warm, green-tinted custom colour was developed within the Solarix dot collection. This colour is characterised by subtle nuances and a refined texture, creating a vibrant and rich facade appearance that performs beautifully both up close and from a distance.

Facade City Theatre, Middelburg
For the facade, a matte colour from the Solarix Line collection was developed, aligned with the existing brickwork and subtly referencing theatre curtains. The result is a dynamic facade with optimal energy yield.
