Glazed Timber curtain wall + Windows and doors of wood

.

Fassaden glazed timber curtain wall is an innovative timber-glass facade with your choice of interior timber species for a unique "warm" feel to the space. Select from a number of horizontal and vertical mullion designs with wood, aluminum or bronze exterior mullion covers. The system is completely pre-fabricated and factory-finished with a six-sided coating for a lasting high performance finish.

“With Fassaden glazed timber curtain wall you can combine two advantages; the excellent insulation of a timber interior and the weather resistance of an aluminum exterior. An inspired combination which lasts a lifetime.”

     

FEATURES and BENEFITS

The use of sustainable timber has a low environmental impact. Timber-glass facades are at least 60% more energy efficient than aluminum-glass systems, and results in a “warm” feel to the interior building environment.
