Aluminum profile for translucent facades.
Today almost every new building relies on aluminum structures: windows, doors and facade glazing. Framing a facade with extruded profiles opens up original design solutions and gives the building its own character. Modern architecture is defined by exactly these lightweight glazed envelopes.

Profile construction
A facade glazing system is assembled from a mullion, a transom, a pressure plate and a decorative cover strip.
A thermally broken profile is built from two aluminum shells with a polyamide strip between them. Thermally broken profiles are used both for facade glazing and for many other applications: window and door units, glazed roofs, winter gardens, verandas and so on.
Main aluminum components of a facade glazing system.
– aluminum stand
– aluminum crossbar
– pressure plate
– decorative cover strip
– load-bearing bracket
– support bracket
Features of aluminum profiles for facades
Key properties of the material:
- Low weight lets these structures span facades of almost any height and area, and the metal can be formed into practically any shape.
- Long service life — several decades. The metal barely ages and resists corrosion even under constant exposure to open air and precipitation.
- Strength + reliability = structural safety.
- It contains no heavy-metal impurities, which makes it an environmentally clean and safe material. It also releases no toxic substances.
- The profiles require minimal maintenance.
- The metal conducts heat well, so thermally broken profiles are recommended for heated rooms and cold ones for unheated buildings.
- Facade profiles have been shown to act as a barrier to electromagnetic waves, protecting the people inside the building and improving their well-being.
Global Extrusion Ukraine offers a wide selection of aluminum facade profiles in any size. The quality of every product meets European standards.
