AESTECH GLAZING · HSIGU

Engineering that gives architecture greater freedom.

AESTECH technology reinforces the perimeter of the insulating-glass unit with a composite profile and adhesive connection, enabling the panes to work together. The result is greater geometric freedom, less visible metalwork and documented performance.

AESTECH GLAZING · HSIGU

The technology is there.
The structure almost disappears.

The HSIGU integrates a pultruded GRP profile and adhesive connection into the spacer zone. The panes collaborate under load, enabling direct connections, varied-angle corners and less visible metalwork.

01

Less visible structure

Façades without mullions or transoms across the main plane.

02

Connections at varied angles

Connection elements can be screwed directly into the composite profile.

03

Higher stiffness

Broader stress distribution and lower displacement in the calculated cases.

04

Protected technology

Patents, utility models and independent ift Rosenheim reports.

HSIGU · ENGINEERING

Glass stops being infill.
It becomes part of the structure.

The GRP profile and adhesive connection make the spacer zone substantially stiffer. The panes collaborate under load, with lower displacement, broader stress distribution and less optical distortion.
