Glass Curtain Walls
Exposed-frame Glass Curtain Walls: Glass curtain walls with metal frame components exposed on the outer surface. They are characterized by the obvious lines of aluminum alloy profile frames, strong decorative properties, relatively simple installation and construction, and convenient maintenance and glass replacement. They are suitable for various public buildings and commercial buildings, such as office buildings and shopping malls, and can create a simple and modern architectural appearance. Since the curtain walls have strong decorative properties, the design of the curtain walls should have a sense of design and so-called artistic sense. Such beautiful designs can make people remember the building in a short time.
Hidden-frame Glass Curtain Walls: The glass is fixed to the aluminum frame with silicone structural sealant, and the aluminum frame is hidden behind the glass and cannot be seen from the outside. This kind of curtain wall has a simple and smooth appearance, a strong overall sense, and can maximize the transparent effect of the glass, making the building look light and beautiful. It is often used in high-end office buildings, hotels, cultural and art centers and other buildings with high requirements for the architectural appearance. This kind of hidden glass curtain wall is relatively ornamental and eye-catching.
Semi-hidden-frame Glass Curtain Walls: Semi-hidden-frame glass curtain walls are glass curtain walls with some frames hidden and some exposed, and are divided into two types: horizontal exposed and vertical hidden, and vertical exposed and horizontal hidden. It combines some characteristics of exposed-frame and hidden-frame glass curtain walls. While ensuring a certain sense of transparency and overall beauty, it can also reflect the linear sense of the building through the exposed frames. It is suitable for some buildings that pursue a modern sense and hope to retain certain building structural lines, such as airport terminals, large exhibition halls, etc. The semi-hidden-frame glass curtain wall uses relatively more materials because it is composed of different materials, that is, a combination of hidden frames and glass curtain walls.
Metal Curtain Walls
Aluminum Panel Curtain Walls: Using aluminum alloy panels as the panel material, they have the advantages of light weight, high strength, corrosion resistance, and easy processing and molding. The surface of the aluminum panel can be treated in various ways, such as fluorocarbon spraying, powder spraying, etc., and can obtain rich colors and textures, and can be customized according to architectural design requirements. It is widely used in the exterior wall decoration of various buildings, such as office buildings, hotels, hospitals, etc., and can show a simple and magnificent architectural style. The materials used in the aluminum panel curtain wall are very important. High-quality materials can be used to build a sturdy curtain wall with a long service life.
Stainless Steel Panel Curtain Walls: Stainless steel panels have high strength, high corrosion resistance and good wear resistance, and their surface texture is unique, with a variety of effects such as mirror finish and brushed finish. The mirror stainless steel panel can reflect the surrounding environment, creating a unique visual effect and making the building full of a modern and technological sense; the brushed stainless steel panel has a soft metallic luster, giving people a delicate and high-end feeling. It is often used in some projects with high requirements for building quality and durability, such as financial institution buildings, high-end commercial centers, etc.
Copper Panel Curtain Walls: Copper panels have good electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance, and their unique metallic luster and texture can endow the building with a unique charm. Over time, a natural oxide film will gradually form on the surface of the copper panel, and the color will change, gradually changing from golden yellow to bronze, adding a historical and cultural atmosphere to the building. It is suitable for some buildings with cultural heritage or special design requirements, such as museums, theaters, historical building protection and renovation projects, etc.
Stone Curtain Walls
Natural Stone Curtain Walls: Using natural marble, granite and other stones as the panel material, they have the advantages of a thick texture, natural color, and good durability. Different types of natural stones have unique textures and colors. For example, the texture of marble is delicate and soft, and it is often used in important parts such as the lobbies and entrances of some high-end hotels, office buildings and other buildings to show a luxurious and noble temperament; granite has a hard texture and a stable color, and is suitable for the overall exterior wall decoration of buildings, reflecting the solemnity and grandeur of the building.
Artificial Stone Curtain Walls: Artificial stones are substitutes for natural stones manufactured by artificial synthesis methods. They have the advantages of light weight, high strength, customizable colors and textures, and relatively low prices. The artificial stone curtain wall can simulate the effects of various natural stones according to design requirements, and can also avoid the defects such as color difference and cracks of natural stones. It is suitable for some building projects with strict cost control or special requirements for stone performance, such as residential buildings, schools, industrial buildings, etc.
Combined Curtain Walls
Combined Glass and Metal Curtain Walls: Combining glass curtain walls with metal curtain walls gives full play to the transparency of glass and the texture and linear sense of metal. Through different combination methods and design techniques, a rich variety of architectural appearance effects can be created. For example, metal decorative lines and metal panels can be used to embellish the frame or local areas of the glass curtain wall to increase the layering and three-dimensional sense of the building; large-area metal curtain walls and glass curtain walls can also be arranged alternately to form a contrast between the virtual and the real, making the building more modern and stylish. This kind of combined curtain wall is often used in some large commercial complexes, cultural and art centers and other places with high requirements for architectural appearance design.
