Unitised façade

WICONA unitised façades

The unitised façade series combines many years of professional expertise and experience from a multitude of projects for your application in buildings of any size.

This range combines the advantages of the stick system structure with the assembly benefits of unitised curtain walling and creates extremely narrow sight lines of only 50 or 65 mm. The external profiles are mitre cut, achieving a particularly elegant “picture frame” appearance. Where there are stringent requirements pertaining to thermal insulation, our unitise façade offers the appropriate solution.

Systems

Whatever the requirements may be, WICTEC EL profiles coupled with your own specialist expertise ensure a project-specific solution.

System performances

WICTEC EL evo is an innovative unitised façade system that can be individually adapted to project-specific requirements. Elements are manufactured in controlled workshop environments without being affected by external factors such as the weather, resulting in consistently high quality. Fast, efficient and projectable assembly on site. Aluminium composite profiles with excellent thermal insulation, from quality-assured and monitored production. All new drainage system accommodate slab edge deflections using patented “spring gasket” technology at horizontal joints between elements without compromising the profile design. This allows narrow frame sight lines to be used, even with extreme building movements.
