W40
The Variety of Hot-Rolled Steel Profiles for Steel-Windows & Doors
Steel-Windows are architects’ and interior designers’ first choice, thanks to their technical flexibility and compatible design. The aluminum industry has tried to imitate the minimalistic appearance of Steel Frame Windows, along with the ability to create many divisions as a part of the design, but their result can’t seriously serve as a competition. These Aluminum designs are somewhat clumsy and dull, due to their significantly thicker profiles.
W40
The classic W40 range is an evolution of the famous W20 range developed in 1964. Produced for the first time in 1995 it consists of 18 profiles and follows the unmistakable classic design of its predecessor. The strong point of this “young” series, is the increased profile depth, which allows to accommodate double glazing up to a thickness of 27mm. The W40 suite is not only used in the field of restoration, but it’s also highly acclaimed in contemporary architecture for its elegant and compact sightlines, ensuring safety and comfort thanks to its excellent thermal and acoustic performance. Despite the depth of this system is only of 42 respectively 47 mm, technically it is considered a “heavy duty” range, which allows making large windows thanks to the extraordinary strength of steel.
Any kind of inward or outward openings: side-hung, double-vent (French style), bottom-hung, top-hung or projected top-hung, horizontally and vertically pivoted windows, as well as large sliding and folding doors.
W-40: Large profile with Dual rubber sealing
This family of profiles are the optimal combination of W500 and W20. Like the W500 they have dual rubber seal, and thanks to their increased depth – they can be glazed with relatively thick double-glazing (up to a total thickness of 28mm).
W-40 - Strong profile with large depth of thicker IGU
