Design Support
Every project is unique
Architects and designers strive to devise structures that not only look great but also function well and are safe for occupants. The design process can be complex and challenging, and we want to make sure that it is as smooth as possible.
At Lumon, we understand that every project is unique and requires a customised solution. We want to help you bring your vision to life. That’s why we offer personalised guidance and support to our B2B customers, from initial design and planning to installation and ongoing maintenance.
Strong support during design projects & BIM objects available:
BIM-object libraries on BIMObject and ProdLib
One of the tools we offer to support you during the design process are our BIM objects libraries on BIMObject and ProdLib platforms. These libraries contain a wide range of objects that are specifically designed to work with Building Information Modeling (BIM) software.
Lumon BIM objects are highly detailed, accurate, and always up to date, ensuring that you have the information you need to make informed decisions during the design process.
Our BIM objects are created by experienced engineers, ensuring that they meet the highest standards of quality and accuracy. They are available in a range of formats, including Revit and AutoCAD, making them compatible with the software you use.
BIMObject – for Autodesk Revit and ArchiCAD
Lumon products can be downloaded in BIMObject portal for free. You only need to register yourself as a user in BIMObject to get an access to the BIM objects themselves and the technical information of the products.
ProdLib – for AutoCAD
Lumon glazing products are also available as digital objects in the ProdLib and WebLib digital libraries for free. You can use the objects directly in your design program or browse them on ProbLid platform.
Planning Guide – Technical details and documentation
Lumon’s Planning Guide provides crucial information about our products, including certifications, technical specifications, and cross-sections. The Planning Guide is a platform we offer to our customers, partners, and those seeking accurate product information.

EPD for Lumon products
An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is now available for Lumon’s balcony, facade and terrace products. The Lumon EPD has been developed based on the principle of modularity, which allows the creation of EPD results for any of Lumon’s products. The Lumon EPD is third party verified, and it provides data about the environmental impacts of Lumon products through their life cycle.
Lumon has understood our requirements for simple things such as documentation, security, self-checks and also our requirements for the planning.

- Studies show that new glazed balconies can last between 60 and 130 years.
- Balcony glazing reduces the thermal loss of exterior wall structures by 15 to 25%, bringing economically beneficial energy savings.
- Glass and aluminium are both recyclable raw materials.
