Engineered to satisfy demanding European building enclosures, our factory-fabricated systems incorporate high-performance thermal breaks (polyamide PA66 GF25), multi-chamber profiles, argon gas cavity spacers, and insulated structural glass units.
From the ultra-modern institutional glass towers of Kirchberg to the bioclimatic residential estates bordering the Moselle River, our full glass aluminium doors meet Luxembourg's exact zoning, microclimatic, and energy mandates.
Equipped with continuous pivot hardware, anti-burglary laminated glass, and access control integration for banking institutions, European agencies, and law offices demanding pristine transparency with security classification RC3 according to DIN EN 1627.
Minimalist slim-profile aluminium full glass sliding systems and oversized double-glazed French doors that harmoniously connect interior living spaces to manicured private gardens, featuring solar heat gain optimization (g-value) and whisper-quiet operation.
Thermally broken acoustic doors engineered for mixed-use conversions, startup accelerators, and university facilities requiring Rw sound reduction indices up to 45 dB, resilient against railway vibrations and heavy urban pedestrian traffic.
Heavy-duty, weather-resistant panoramic folding glass partitions offering uninhibited views of vineyard terraces. Coated with Qualicoat Seaside certified powder coatings to eliminate humidity corrosion and condensation.
Navigating Luxembourg's regulatory framework requires deep technical mastery. Here is how our factory-engineered aluminium full glass assemblies systematically address national standards and forward-looking construction paradigms.
Luxembourg's Grand-Ducal Regulation on Building Energy Performance enforces near-zero energy consumption. Our triple-glazed aluminium doors incorporate 34mm-wide polyamide thermal barriers and Swiss warm-edge composite spacers, suppressing linear thermal bridging (Ψ ≤ 0.035 W/mK) to effortlessly reach overall Ud values down to 0.78 W/m²K.
In synergy with the Luxembourg Ministry of the Economy's Circular Economy Strategy, our primary extrusion profiles utilize high-purity recycled 6063-T6 architectural aluminium alloy. All glass panels and silicone gaskets are mechanically disassemblable, complying with Madaster and Cradle to Cradle material provenance tracking.
Approved under Inspection du Travail et des Mines (ITM) life-safety codes, our commercial glass assemblies feature certified emergency exit push-bars according to EN 1125. For residential villas, multi-point hook locking gear (PBN/KFV) paired with P5A anti-bandit laminated glass ensures compliance with DIN EN 1627 RC3 standards.
Luxembourg experiences high Atlantic pressure differentials and gusty wind corridors. Our structural mullions and toughened glass thicknesses are dimensioned to withstand wind loading according to NBN EN 1991-1-4 (Eurocode 1), certified to Class C4 (1600 Pa test pressure) to eliminate perimeter deflection and water ingress.
Developments located along the Findel Airport approach paths (Senningerberg, Cents, Sandweiler) or adjacent to CFL high-speed rail lines demand stringent acoustic attenuation. We configure asymmetric sound-dampening acoustic PVB glass laminates yielding verified sound attenuation of Rw (C; Ctr) ≥ 42 (-1; -4) dB.
Our engineering team supplies architects and general contractors with parametric Revit BIM families (LOD 350) and detailed 2D DWG profile sections. This eliminates coordination clashes with local structural engineers, EIFS facade interfaces, and concealed sub-floor drainage systems.
