Structural Silicone Facade
Structural Silicone Facade
Structural silicone curtain wall, also known as silicone glass curtain wall, is an application in which the facade glass is supported by aluminum profiles from the inside and covered on the outside of the building. The aluminum profiles (anchor and cassette profiles) inside are almost invisible from the outside, so that the visuals of the buildings in this glass facade application take a completely glass and transparent shape.
Although silicone facade essentially requires less processing in glass installation, its cost is generally slightly higher than the curtain wall application with cover, as it requires extra bonding process in glass manufacturing.
Structural silicone facade systems have outward or inward opening sash options. Glass sizes, glass properties and glass colors vary considerably, but the aim is always to make the right choices for maximum aesthetics, maximum durability, maximum thermal insulation and of course minimum cost. In this process, we stay in contact at any time before and during construction in order to determine the options suitable for you and to produce solutions together by considering all stages from glass manufacturing to assembly.
