Engineered solutions for every architectural requirement
Our thermally broken aluminium frames utilize a 24mm polyamide barrier that interrupts heat transfer between internal and external surfaces. This design achieves U-values as low as 1.8 W/m²K, significantly reducing thermal bridging.
Extrusions are manufactured from 6063-T6 alloy with minimum wall thickness of 2.0mm in structural areas. Powder coating is applied after chromate conversion treatment, achieving a minimum dry film thickness of 60 microns for coastal installations.
Available configurations include awning, casement, sliding, and fixed lite assemblies. Hardware is stainless steel grade 316 with concealed fixings for clean sightlines.
Insulated glass units are assembled with 16mm argon-filled cavity and dual-seal edge system. Primary seal is polyisobutylene, secondary seal is polysulphide or silicone depending on structural requirements.
Low-emissivity coating is applied to surface two of the outer lite, reflecting long-wave radiation while maintaining visible light transmission above 70%. This combination reduces solar heat gain coefficient to 0.32.
Glass thickness ranges from 4mm to 12mm per lite depending on span and wind load. Tempered and laminated options available for safety applications. All units manufactured to AS1288 and AS2208 standards.
Structurally glazed facade systems for buildings up to 60 storeys. Design wind pressures calculated per AS1170.2 with safety factors meeting AS2047 requirements for commercial applications.
Mullions are extruded box sections with moment of inertia sufficient to resist deflection within L/175 under maximum design load. Pressure equalization chambers manage differential pressure across the glazing plane.
Silicone structural glazing achieves weather seal without mechanical retention of glass. Edge clearances and bite dimensions conform to manufacturer specifications for the selected sealant system.
Reproduction of period profiles including double-hung sash, casement, and leadlight assemblies. Sections are milled to match original dimensions within 1mm tolerance, maintaining architectural authenticity.
Modern performance is achieved through concealed thermal breaks and IGU integration that preserves external appearance. Weather seals are designed to avoid visible compression when windows are closed.
Suitable for heritage overlay zones where council approval requires matching of existing character. Our documentation package includes profile drawings and material specifications for heritage consultants.
Laminated glass assemblies engineered for sound attenuation in noise-affected environments. PVB interlayer thickness varies from 0.76mm to 2.28mm depending on target frequency range.
Asymmetric lite configuration (6mm + 10mm) provides broader spectrum absorption than equal thickness pairs. Weighted sound reduction index (Rw) values from 35dB to 42dB verified by NATA-accredited acoustic testing.
Critical for sites adjacent to arterial roads, flight paths, or industrial zones. Installation includes perimeter acoustic sealing and decoupled frame mounting to prevent flanking transmission.
CNC waterjet cutting produces complex shapes including ellipses, parabolas, and polygonal assemblies. Edge finishing options include flat polish, pencil round, or chamfer depending on aesthetic requirements.
Maximum panel size 3.6m x 2.4m in standard glass, larger dimensions available in toughened or laminated specifications. Curved glass fabricated through controlled heating to radii down to 800mm.
Digital templating ensures first-time fit for irregular openings. CAD integration allows architects to supply DXF files for direct machine programming without dimensional translation errors.
