Glazed Curtain Walls
This system for thermally insulated curtain walls is based on a mullion/transom construction. Very narrow facing widths from 45 mm permit a wide range of applications such as fire protection and burglary resistance. Production and assembly are now even more efficient. Clever processing tools save your time and enhance workpiece accuracy with pre-marked weather-stripping. The system has been comprehensively tested to both the European and North American Standards for fire resistance. Certified for fire EI (Integrity and Insulation) classification up to 120 minutes of fire resistance, and for EW (Integrity & Radiation Control) and E (Integrity) fire classifications.
