Façade glass

Innovative solutions for modern architecture

Stan-Szkło – a specialist in the manufacture of insulated glass units for façades

Modern architecture is increasingly using glass as a key visual and functional element to create unique building designs. As a manufacturer of insulated glass units, we offer a wide range of solutions tailored to various system constructions, such as:

  • mullion and transom system,
  • system with a vertical or horizontal dividing line,
  • structural glazing,
  • point-fixed glazing.

Due to its unique aesthetic qualities, structural glazing is becoming the most popular choice for façade designs. This technology makes it possible to achieve the effect of a fully glazed building, which is highly valued in modern architecture.

Structural glazing – aesthetics at the highest level

Structural glazing is an advanced technology in which insulated glass units are fixed to the building structure using special silicone adhesives, which are the only visible bonding element. As a result, the façades have a smooth, uniform surface, which makes them exceptionally stylish and modern.

  • Two-sided system: Two edges of the façade panel are bonded with adhesive while the remaining edges are mechanically fixed.
  •  Four-sided system: All edges of the panel are bonded with construction adhesive, ensuring the highest level of aesthetics and minimising the visibility of the structure.
  •  Glass fins system: Glass fins reinforce the façade structure and the entire assembly bonded to the fins with construction adhesives.
  • Adhesive Bolt System: The glass panes are fixed with special bolts bonded directly to the glass, ensuring a strong and durable fixing.

Structural glazing uses specialised structural silicones that must meet strict standards for strength and durability. It is important that they show full resistance to UV radiation and harsh weather conditions such as varying temperatures and humidity. To ensure the durability and cohesion of the entire system, the final seals of insulated glazing units are made using silicone sealants with parameters matched to construction silicones.

Stan-Szkło collaborates with the renowned company Dow Corning, using its advanced silicone solutions for structural glazing. This partnership guarantees the highest quality of execution and the safety of the entire structure. Due to the high technological requirements, structural bonding work should only be outsourced to qualified contractors. Inaccurate executed processes can lead to issues occurring after a few years, the repair of which generates significant costs for investors.

Depending on the fixing system, we make façade glass:

  • with recessed spacer bars for corner glazing (steps)
  • with recessed spacer bars and bonded channels
  • with recessed spacer bars and selected silicone
  • with steps (1,2,3 and 4-sided)
