Unitized Glazing

Unitized Glazing

Stick / Semi-Unitized Glazing

Unitized and semi-unitized glazing are modern curtain wall systems that enhance aesthetic appeal, energy efficiency, and structural integrity. Widely used in high-rise buildings, commercial complexes, and premium residential projects, these systems provide a seamless, high-performance façade solution.

The unitized glazing system consists of pre-fabricated glass panels manufactured in a controlled factory environment, ensuring precision, high quality, and rapid on-site installation. This results in superior thermal insulation, air-tightness, and water resistance, making it ideal for large façades and skyscrapers. On the other hand, the semi-unitized glazing system involves assembling the frame on-site, offering greater design flexibility and cost-effectiveness while maintaining excellent strength and durability.

WHY CHOOSE UNITIZED AND SEMI-UNITIZED GLAZING?

  • Enhanced aesthetics: Create a modern, sleek look, with design flexibility for various shapes, colors, and materials.
  • Thermal & Acoustic Insulation: Reduces heat transfer and external noise for a comfortable indoor environment.
  • Low Maintenance: Factory-assembled panels reduce maintenance costs and extend the building’s lifespan.
  • Design Flexibility: Supports unique and seamless architectural designs with multiple glass and frame options. 
  • Energy efficiency: Provide thermal insulation, minimize heat transfer, and maximize natural daylight, reducing heating, cooling, and lighting costs. Advanced glazing options like double or triple glazing and Low-E coatings further improve performance.
  • Weather resistance & durability: Engineered to withstand high wind loads, prevent air leaks and moisture infiltration, and offer impact resistance.
  • Structural load reduction: Their lightweight nature reduces the overall structural weight, potentially impacting foundation design and construction costs.
  • Improved indoor environment: Promote natural lighting and ventilation, enhancing occupant comfort and well-being.
  • Sound insulation: Reduce noise transmission from the outside, particularly in urban areas.
  • Sustainability: Contribute to LEED and other green building certifications by minimizing energy consumption, using recyclable materials, and allowing for integration with renewable energy sources like photovoltaic panels.
