Characteristics of Eku 50 Glass system

Type of system
Thermal break aluminium system for mullion and transom curtain walls.
Applications
The system is made from a mullion and transom grid: the last one are fixed horizontally to the mullions with specific junction and cooperate with them to the containment of both opaque and transparent panelling. There are particular fitting and profiles engineered to optimize the drainage capacity and the thermal performance of the structure. t's possible to use casement an tilt and turn openings achievable with Eku 60 TT and Eku 80 TT series, or top hung openings done with dedicated semi-structured or mechanical retain profiles.
