Large-scale aluminium glazing – façade or display windows?

Large-format aluminium windows – modernity and minimalism

Façade systems are distinguished by their modern appearance and minimalist design. With their constant width and slim aluminium profiles, they lend elegance and coherence to the façade. What’s more, the low thickness of the frames means that such façades provide excellent lighting for the interiors, so there is no need to use electricity on interior lamps. As a result of the numerous advantages of façades, they are the ideal solution for buildings with a modern design, where aesthetics play a key role and a high level of energy efficiency is essential. Façades with aluminium profiles create uniform large-scale glazing, perfectly in keeping with the style of minimalism.

Glazed wall – excellent static and insulation performance

Façade systems are characterised by excellent statics due to the use of robust aluminium sections. These elements ensure the stability and durability of the entire façade, which is particularly important for large glazed walls. In the case of façades that cover a large part of the surface area of the building shell, the robust aluminium profiles perfectly support the weight of the glazing installed in them. Due to, among other things, their thermal insulation properties, they often consist of two or even three layers of glass.

For those who value this thermal and acoustic comfort, façade systems are an excellent choice due to the properties they offer. This is because the robust, multi-layered glazing packages provide very good insulation against external weather conditions, so that the building does not lose heat on cold days or become overheated on hot days. The façades also offer high sound insulation, which translates into increased building comfort by ensuring the building is quiet.

Virtually unlimited design possibilities

Glazed walls allow the designers’ bold visions to be realised. Thanks to the variety of profiles and accessories available, the construction possibilities are virtually unlimited. This allows unique and innovative architectural solutions to be created.

Aluminium windows that are part of façade systems are often chosen for their modern aesthetics, excellent statics, structural capabilities and thermal and acoustic insulation. Although they are definitely a more expensive investment from a cost point of view, their durability and energy efficiency far outweigh the benefits of choosing other architectural solutions, such as display windows.
