Description

MX52:

Aluminium curtain walling system for use with a variety of curtain walling applications using the same mullion and transom grid, enabling variations to the external appearance of the building, with the construction benefitting from one fully integrated system.


MX52 Visible Grid (32 mm):

Fully capped curtain wall. Aluminium curtain walling system for use with a variety of curtain walling applications using the same mullion and transom grid. Complete with differing face caps and external variations, so enabling variations to the external appearance of the building - while benefitting from one fully integrated system.


MX52 Trame:

A design option, allowing specifiers to spotlight a vertical or horizontal emphasis across the building envelope.

Projecting caps may be used to add depth to the facade whilst slender face trim gaskets, which are flush with the front face of the infill, soften the corresponding vertical or horizontal sections.


MX52 Acoustic (42 mm):

An MX52 design option, allowing specifiers to incorporate thicker infills for thermal, barrier or acoustic compliance. Can accommodate up to 42 mm glazing.


MX52 Acoustic Visible Grid:

Fully capped curtain wall. Aluminium curtain walling system for use with a variety of curtain walling applications using the same mullion and transom grid. Complete with differing face caps and external variations, so enabling variations to the external appearance of the building - while benefitting from one fully integrated system.


MX52 Trame Horizontale Acoustic:

A design option, allowing specifiers to spotlight horizontal emphasis across the building envelope.

Projecting horizontal transom caps add depth to the facade whilst slender face trim gaskets, which are flush with the vertical front face of the infill, soften the corresponding verticals.


MXm 52: Toggle

An MX52 design option, allowing specifiers to choose a flush external facade. Or add emphasis via extended capping to highlight individual elements.

Projecting caps may be used to add depth to the facade whilst a slender face trim gasket or a flush silicone seal, which are flush with the front face of the infill, soften the corresponding vertical or horizontal sections.


Features and benefits:

  • Facet up to ±10° using standard cast cleat and rotation spigot. Up to ±20° using adapters. Bespoke sections for 90° corners. 
  • Stick system for easy transportation and installation, zone drained and pressure equalized to ensure performance and drainage efficiency.
