Two of 厂肠丑眉肠辞鈥檚 most popular facade systems, the FW50+ and FW60+, are now available in super-insulated (SI) versions with lower U-values for the frames, enabling architects and specifiers to exceed existing insulation regulations
The systems incorporate improved insulation in the area between the inner structural profile and the outer pressure plate and cover cap, and can accommodate double or triple glazing up to a maximum thickness of 64mm.
U-values for the FW50+.SI range from a typical 1.27W/m2K with a 28mm double-glazed unit, down to 0.73W/m2K with a 64mm triple-glazed unit.
The .SI versions use the existing transom, mullion and cover cap profiles of the standard 50mm and 60mm facade systems, but have new glazing supports that can accommodate increased glass loads of up to 400kg per transom for FW50+.SI and 600kg per transom for FW60+.SI.
Another benefit of the system is that 厂肠丑眉肠辞鈥檚 photovoltaic panels can be integrated into both facades.
