Thermosash PW1000-TI160 : Thermally improved four sided mechanically glazed engaged curtainwall - both horizontal transom, and vertical mullion elements are expressed.
Mullion Size: 160mm
Performance
The calculated thermal performance of the curtainwall / panel wall suite is subject to many variables, from size of individual panels, glass performance, introduction of transoms and integrated solar shading (where bracketing may cause a cold link passage) and the spandrel depth (insulation).
Performance glass
It is important to note that the aluminium section alone does not provide the thermal performance often expected. Glass specification is a significant contributor to the overall mechanical performance requirement of a building. The larger the glass pane the better performing the panel will be on average. Thermosash has access to suppliers of low carbon high performance glazing and can deliver an integrate solution.
Engineering Custom solutions
Thermosash design and detail the facade solution to meet project demand for seismic risk, wind loads, climate zones, corrosion zones and building importance levels as well as aesthetics, unique site constraints and budgetary requirements. We have extensive experience in integrating our systems and products to deliver a total facade solution.
Low carbon aluminium
Our aluminium achieves a very low carbon footprint that significantly outperforms readily available local & global alternatives - offering reduced upfront carbon emissions that positively contribute to sustainability project goals. For up-to-date carbon figures please contact us.
Carbon reports
Via our in-house thermal engineers and custom-built calculators, we can assess and provide facade thermal, embodied and operational carbon reports to assist in guiding design and calculate a ROI on facade suite selection.
Unitised pre-fabrication
Our systems are prefabricated and glazed at our manufacturing facilities (Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch) and can be transported for just-in-time site delivery. Due to prefabrication and the unitised modular design of our products and systems our highly skilled installation teams can close in buildings rapidly saving on programme time and mitigate follow on trade risk.
