With the introduction of polyamide 6/6 nylon thermal barriers the one drawback to using aluminum windows and doors in the modern building has been overcome.
AlumaTherm® thermally broken aluminum is the perfect material to build architecturally relevant window and door systems in such diverse spaces as conversion live/work lofts, urban housing, residential structures, education buildings and office spaces.
AlumaTherm® polyamide 6/6 structural thermal barriers provide greater stability, strength and thermal values than traditional poured and de-bridged aluminum windows.
Thermally enhanced aluminum window and door systems with structural polyamide 6/6 nylon were developed in Europe over twenty years ago. Today it is the dominant method employed in the construction of aluminum extrusion.
The Series 90 window system represents AlumaTherm's commitment to sustainable solutions. Recycled aluminum is identical to smelted aluminum, except for one thing: it takes only 1/20 of the energy to produce it. And like few other materials in the recycling chain, aluminum recycles over and over again.
