FW 50+ SG / FW 60+ SG
Elegant structural glazing façade with a low heat transfer coefficient and large-scale units with double or triple insulating glass offers high-quality architectural and technical solutions for the building envelope
The flush-fitted appearance of the façade is achieved by using profiles that are only visible on the room side. From the outside, only glass surfaces with slender joints are visible. Maximum insulation SI isolators, pre-filler and triple insulating glass result in the lowest Ucw values.
The structural glazing façades can not only be constructed with an all-glass look; they also allow the façade to be designed with a semistructural glazing look. A variety of architectural features can be created by using the wide range of cover caps to produce a horizontal or vertical emphasis on the façade.
