After producing millions of square feet of window wall for landmark projects around the world, we have both witnessed and driven technological advances ranging from evolutionary to revolutionary. That history – spanning 40 plus years – has enabled our engineers to provide unparalleled custom design, engineering and manufacturing services to the most renowned national and international architectural firms. Advancements in computer and manufacturing technologies, state-of-the-art structural analysis, mock-up testing and CNC machining further ensure that our products meet the highest possible quality standards. The Bellagio Resort and Casino is an excellent example of our custom window walls. All 3,005 guest rooms incorporate our Series 650 Window Wall with a custom vented horizontal. And because the Series 650 features high compression interior wedge gaskets, it outperforms traditional window walls during water penetration testing. Some of our outstanding projects include: The Bellagio Hotel and Casino, UC Merced Library, Mandalay Bay Hotel and Best Buy Headquarters.
This high-performance product is the most versatile in our product offering. It is available with both captured and silicone glazed verticals. Specially designed head members allow for building movement while also offering superior secondary water control. Continuous sill members offer uninterrupted guttering with sheltered and baffled weeps. High compression interior wedge gaskets enable the Series 650 window wall to outperform the competitors. Gaskets are available with factory-molded corners. Standard depths include 4-1/2" and 6" deep systems. The system allows for field or factory installation of glazing units. Series 650 is thermally improved for added thermal performance in cold weather climates.
- Most owners' and architects' choice for their buildings
- Utilized in both window wall and curtain wall applications
The Series 225 window wall is ideal for low-rise applications. It offers the same high performance features of the Series 650. Perimeter members come standard at 2" wide while intermediate vertical and horizontals measure 2-1/4", resulting in a savings to the owner. Series 225 is available in a 4-1/2" depth in either structural glazed or captured glazed applications. Gaskets are available with factory molded corners. The Series 225 is available in both thermal and non-thermal designs to meet the needs of any climate. Split mullion designs are available for factory pre-assembly and pre-glazing.
- High performance at a low cost
- Inside glazed
- Molded corners available
The Series 675 window wall system is ideal for low and high rise applications. It offers the high performance benefits of "rain screen" design. The "pressure equalized" cavities allow for the elimination of exterior weatherseals at silicone glazed and captured glazed vertical mullions. The split mullion design allows for factory preglazing and ease of installation. The sill anchor acts as a continuous gutter for water control. The head member offers continuous secondary water control as a standard feature. The Series 675 window wall system offers split-finish capabilities and comes in a standard 6" depth, customized to any specification.
