Slimline all-glass façade with 50 mm face width – the basis for a variety of solutions
A timeless aesthetic combined with maximum functionality – the Schüco FWS 50 SG (Structural Glazing) façade system with 50 mm face width enables large-scale, all-glass façades including double insulating glass for excellent thermal insulation.
The system can be designed in a flush-fitted all-glass look or in a semi-Structural Glazing look.
Additional design freedom is provided by the comprehensive cover cap range: a horizontal or vertical emphasis on the façade can create attractive architectural features.
Compatibility with the Schüco AWS 114 window system ensures extra functionality and user comfort: the manually or mechatronically operated insert units with outward-opening projected top-hung or parallel-opening windows can be integrated into the all-glass façade with a visually homogeneous look, even for large-format solutions.
