AA®265 Unitised Curtain Wall

Introduction
An alternative to the AA®201 structurally glazed system, the AA®265 is a dry glazed solution incorporating a 3-chamber system and overlapping gasket design for optimum weathertightness.

The AA®265 offers the advantage of a dry glazed assembly giving the building team a unique set of benefits. These include factory fabrication to ensure additional quality control, rapid on site installation as well as slimline design and flexibility. In addition, if limited access during installation is required, the AA®265 system can be installed, under restricted working conditions, with the building remaining occupied.

Weathering is achieved by zone drained pressure equalisation. The glazing provides a positive weather seal for high performance. The system also features the exclusive, high performance thermal break.

The AA®265 unitised system gives the specifier a wide choice of styles to create individual and exciting building facades. The AA®265 can accommodate spandrel infill materials including glass, stone and metal panels.

The AA®265 unitised curtain wall system is adaptable to any new construction project from two storeys upwards. The system is ideal for fast track installation where safe methods of work are required. The AA®265 has been exclusively designed and developed by Kawneer, with installation contracts undertaken in collaboration with its network of authorised dealers.

The AA®265 has been tested and certified in accordance with the CWCT Sequence B 2006 Standard for Systemised Building Envelopes.
