A special insulating material and thermal-break structure give a low U-value, achieving heat transfer performance equivalent to the insulation layer itself and eliminating the structural heat bridge at its source. Testing shows the channel runs about 20 °C warmer than an ordinary cast-in channel with no frost, blocking the metal heat path and ensuring the envelope meets its energy targets.
The cantilever design adapts to insulation layers of different thicknesses, connecting the façade to the main structure without breaking the continuity of the insulation system. Precise cast-in positioning and a simple on-site assembly process greatly improve efficiency, suiting both prefabricated and cast-in-place construction.
A special bulb-flat steel leg design delivers lateral capacity above 40 kN, safeguarding the façade against wind and seismic loads. Hot-dip galvanised carbon steel with an epoxy coating provides dual corrosion protection, passing over 1,200 hours of salt spray testing, and selected profiles hold European ETA approval.
