Description

The TENTAL curtain wall offers an extensive range of solutions and creative freedom when designing a facade. It allows modular curtain wall designs with large glazing units to enable maximum transparency with a minimal sightline.


It uses Hydro CIRCAL®, an alloy made with a minimum of 75% recycled end-of-life aluminium, allowing tons of scrap that would otherwise become waste be reintroduced into the system. The thermal break elements are made from recycled xPET, a material that gives a second life to used plastic drinks bottles. Therefore, the TENTAL curtain wall is a suitable solution for current needs in terms of design and sustainability in the building industry.


Features and benefits:

  • Standard or high insulation levels.
  • Mullion drained.
  • Anti burglary - RC2/ RC3.
  • Compatible with a full range of current and future window, door and sliding systems.
  • High water tightness.
  • 50 mm sightline.
  • Designed for ease of assembly and disassembly.
  • Components manufactured from recycled materials.
  • Hydro CIRCAL® has one of the lowest CO2 footprints worldwide.
  • 90° convex angles can be created with edge-to-edge glazing.
  • Each module can integrate panels weighing up to 850 kg with a surface area up to 12.25 m².
  • Infill from 6 to 62 mm.
  • Collection of caps that mark the identity of each facade.
