Forster Curtain System

FIRE RESISTANT CURTAIN WALLS

Multi- functional

With Forster thermfix vario it is possible to create impressive facades with

Generously sized elements, an imposing appearance and large transparent

Areas.

The new transom connector substantially reduces assembly work. The elements

can be connected quickly and easily .Another practical feature is the fact the

new transom  connector can be used for all steel profiles available in the trade.

The single –component continuous inner seal is identical for mullions and

transoms, saving time and money .The integrated drainage channel and a

sealing zone for the rebate insulator make it possible to make the façade

highly thermally insulating. The durability of the curtain wall in enhanced by

overlapping sealing planes at the crossover points.
