New Heights With Innovative Curtain Walling System
Recognising the need for a versatile, high-performance yet easy to construct curtain walling system, Sapa Building Systems has developed and launched Gridframe MRV.
The system can be used to form fixed lights, top and side hung, tilt-before-turn and pivot windows to suit the widest variety of applications and can also be incorporated into Sapa's recently launched MRV Curtain Walling system.
Casements can be internally or externally beaded and the Eurogroove vent design allows for industry-standard hardware to be used for maximum design flexibility and cost-effectiveness.
The polyamide thermal barrier used throughout the Dualframe range ensures compliance with Part L of the Building Regulations using only hard coat low emissivity glass with standard spacers to double glazed units.
The 55mm system uses many of the same components and tooling as the rest of the Dualframe range to allow fabricators to switch their production easily and swiftly depending on their requirements.
