World-class seal quality – thanks to sealing with air.

Product catalog summary

Introduction
The document discusses the air-lux sealing technology, which ensures world-class seal quality for high-rise buildings, providing protection against driving rain, wind, and noise. This technology is highlighted for its 100% impermeability, making it ideal for high-rise construction.

Sealing Technology
The air-lux system uses an innovative air-sealing concept where air is pumped into a perimeter ring seal within the window frame. This seal inflates to ensure complete closure against external elements when the window is closed. The system allows for smooth, frictionless opening and closing of sliding windows by deflating the seal when the window is opened.

Specifications

DRIVING RAIN, WIND AND NOISE ARE GUARANTEED TO STAY OUTSIDE. When closed, the perimeter ring seal ensures 100 % impermeability – against heavy rain, wind and noise. Air is generated in the frame and pumped into the seal. Smooth opening and closing When the sliding window is in the ‘closed’ position, the seal that is built into the frame is inflated and pressed against the window profile using a push-button (active seal). This ensures that the gap between the fixed element and the sliding element is always 100 % closed. The sliding casement window is opened by pressing a button which causes the...
