A Flexible And Lightweight Aluminium Curtain Walling System

Thanks to the slim sightlines, our aluminium curtain walling boasts of an incredibly sleek appearance. Extremely flexible, it can be faceted, curved or angled, depending on project requirements. Our systems utilise thermally broken technology too, meaning the thermal performance which is demanded of modern buildings is easily attained and then some. Having been stringently tested for weather resistance, an optimal weather performance is also assured.

What Is An Aluminium Curtain Wall?

An aluminium curtain wall is a thin wall, that features glass and slimline aluminium frames. An aluminium curtain wall is connected to the building structure but does not hold the floor or roof loads of the building.

      “I just wanted to feedback from today’s installation. From start to finish, we only have compliments. Every contact has been profressional and straight forward, all company employees I’ve met when they measured up, and when installed, have all been an asset to your company. The standard of the fitting of the windows is perfect, and the courtesy of each person has been exemplary. I don’t usually send reviews or emails like this, but I feel that I should on this occasion due to such an amazing positive experience. I’d highly recommend your company to others.

Communication throughout was great and it was quick and easy to get a quote and then set a date for the work to be carried out.
