Curtain Walls

Product Description

A curtain wall system is an independent facade cladding, separate from the building’s load-bearing structure, constructed from glass and aluminium elements. It enables the creation of large, continuous glazed surfaces while meeting modern building physics and energy performance requirements.

Applications

• Office buildings and high-rise facades
• Shopping centres and commercial buildings
• Airports, railway stations and transport hubs
• Cultural institutions, museums and exhibition spaces
• Hotels and conference centres
• Sports facilities and arenas

Features and Benefits

• Large glazed surface: maximum natural light, panoramic views
• Lightweight construction: the aluminium grid system imposes minimal structural load
• Thermal insulation: thermally broken profiles, double or triple glazing
• Wind load resistance: design accounts for building height and location
• Drainage: integrated channel system ensures effective rainwater management
• Fire protection: fire-rated specification optionally available with floor-by-floor compartmentation

System Types

• Stick system: assembled on-site, highly adaptable
• Unitised system: factory pre-assembled, efficient for large surface areas
• Structural silicone glazing (SSG): frameless appearance, homogeneous facade surface

Installation

The design and installation of curtain wall systems requires specialist expertise. Our team works in close collaboration with structural engineers and architects to develop the most appropriate system, then ensures precise on-site execution.
