Aluminium or PVCu Curtain Walling Glazing Systems
We have a long tradition of innovation and this ethos allows free
architectural expression without compromising the integrity of the
structure. Our nationwide wide team of Architectural Project Managers
are able to offer advice on standard and bespoke solutions from the
earliest stages of the design process.
Schüco aluminium curtain walling systems FW50+ and FW60+, with their
wide ranging design, thermal and structural possibilities, have a
successful track record around the world in a variety of climatic
conditions. And the growing trend for more glass and less visible frame
is met by our Structural Glazing versions - FW50+SG and FW60+SG.
For basic low rise glazed façades Schüco TTC 50 provides an economic
solution while fire protection curtain walls may also be specified.
The market has seen a growing trend towards unitised facades where more
prefabrication is undertaken in the factory with the consequent
reduction in time on site. Based on our long experience with façades
Schüco has developed unitised ranges with either 65 or 90mm face width
profiles known as SkyLine S 65 and SU90.
Special Profiles
The design of a façade is determined by the internal and external
appearance of the transoms and mullions, while the shape and colour of a
profile can make it appear wider or narrower or more or less prominent
than it actually is. In recognition of the fact that standard does not
always suit, we are able to provide bespoke design solutions based on
existing tried and tested Schüco systems.
Windows Doors and Facades
New from Schüco in 2007 is the AWS range. This series of thermally
insulated aluminium windows has evolved to meet the requirements of
architects and clients for aesthetic, robust and innovative fenestration
combined with the improved thermal performance demanded by the Building
Regulations.
A variety of window types are available including top and side hung open
out, tilt turn, bottom and side hung open in, horizontal and vertical
pivot and top swing. The same profile suite is also utilised to make
single and double balcony doors and tilt sliding doors, while design
features include flat, radiused and bevelled frame details as well as
hidden vent options.
Unique to Schüco inward opening windows is the AvanTec concealed
fittings system that offers clean sight lines and the possibility of
slimmer frames without the problem of hinges conflicting with internal
reveal finishes.
All AWS products can be specified with different coloured anodised or
paint finishes on the inner and outer faces together with a choice
hardware, while long life epdm glazing and weather seals are used
throughout as standard.
AWS is available in choice of frame depths - 50, 60, 65, 70 and 75mm -
with increasing levels of insulation. Top of the range AWS 75.SI, with
its super insulation designation, has a class leading Uf value of 1.4
W/m2K.
Additionally, there is a range of specialist AWS products including
sound insulating, fire protection, TipTronic electrically operated with
concealed motors and SHEVS compliant smoke and heat exhaust ventilation
windows.
