Thermal Break Assembly: The Balance Between Bond Strength and Geometry
Modern thermal break profiles are getting more complex: asymmetric shapes, multilayer profiles, narrow lips, sections that double as design statements. Thermal performance expectations keep climbing across the market, and the profile portfolio on a typical façade fabrication floor today looks nothing like it did ten years ago. What hasn’t kept pace is the assembly line. […]
How to calculate insulation values?
The ƛ-value or lambda value measures the thermal conductivity of materials. It is also called the thermal conductivity coefficient. A high ƛ-value or thermal conductivity is bad news when it comes to insulation; if a material conducts heat well, a lot of heat will be lost through that material. We refer to ‘insulation’ material if the […]
High-quality insulated aluminium profiles in just 3 steps
The quality of insulated profiles depends on the materials used. The production method also affects the end result quality and costs. The conventional product process consists of three steps. The production of aluminium window profiles with a thermal break does not require anything very complicated: just two aluminium extrusions with an insulating strip in between. These strips […]
