Curtain walling is a wall façade, with virtually unlimited configurations, that allows as much light as possible into a building. While curtain walls are visually very striking, they also offer a wide range of technical benefits too, including:
- Reducing building sway
- Inhibiting the spread of fires
- Enhance a building’s natural light
Aluminium is the perfect choice of frame for a curtain wall for many reasons. The most important of these are that it:
- Creates a waterproof barrier
- Stops the heavy glass panels from falling out
- Offers excellent thermal insulation
- Transfers the load back to the building’s main structure
- Provides fire, smoke and acoustic separation
