The unique air-lux concept - Sealing with air
100% Impermeability, excellent running characteristics
When they are closed, the air seal ensures a 100% impermeability against driving rain, wind and noise. If open, the window slides open with minimal force and friction less providing excellent running characteristics. Minimal wear and tear supports a long-life service life.
Construction Sagging
The façade of a high-rise building is exposed to enormous wind loads; pressure and suction forces. The membrane function of the air-seal ensures a 100% impermeability even under construction movements. Conventional sealing systems easily fail under such conditions and over time.
Sliding panels up to 25 sqm
Big and Bigger - air-lux can accept very large panel sizes of up to 25m2 in a frameless , floor to ceiling design. At a weight of nearly 2000kg , a slider of this type works much like a glass facade, which can slide away to the side in virtual silence.
Motorization
thanks to the air-seal concept and without the friction of a brush-seals the air-lux panel slides away effortless manually with a weight of up to 600kg. A fully integrated motor-drive is assisting to open and close the slider in higher weights. In case of power-failure the slider can be operated manually.
Security
The highly resistant air-lux construction can be further enhanced with mechanical and electronic components as well as specific glass to a tested and certified RC3 level. A full integration into home automation including access control, alarm systems, lock monitoring and audit trails ensure a high security of the openings.
