Schüco AWS 70.HI – Window Wall System

The Schüco AWS 70.HI (High Insulated) window system is adapted here as a window wall solution, offering a thermally efficient and architecturally clean alternative to traditional curtain wall systems. Ideal for commercial and residential buildings, the system combines the energy efficiency of high-insulated window technology with the large-scale glazing capabilities of façade applications.

This window wall configuration provides modularity, easy integration with Schüco doors and ventilation elements, and allows for expansive, floor-to-ceiling glass areas—making it perfect for projects that require both high performance and elegant design.

Key Features

  • Thermally Insulated System: Uf values down to 1.7 W/(m²K), ideal for energy-conscious designs
  • Flexible Window Wall Application: Used as punched openings, horizontal ribbons, or full façade inserts
  • Modular Composition: Pre-fabricated elements streamline onsite assembly
  • Slim Face Widths: From 51 mm, with expansive glass fields for light-filled interiors
  • Multiple Vent Options: Tilt/turn, top-hung, side-hung, and motorized configurations available
  • Integration-Ready: Seamlessly pairs with Schüco ADS door systems and sun shading solutions
  • Certified Performance: Burglar resistance up to RC 3, sound insulation, and weather protection
