Ud value dependent on the frame/ vent combination and glass unit specification.

Insert details of glazing unit including, spacer type and dimension, glass type (emissivity, safety, solar, G-value and energy factors) and thickness (36–52 mm).

Glass to be set against extruded EPDM rubber gaskets retained in undercut grooves within the aluminium profile and clip-in glazing beads.

Manufacturer guidance

Insert requirements.

Fixings must ensure the window is retained securely within the opening without damage or distortion to the window frame.

Generally, fasteners should be positioned 150 mm from each corner and each mullion/ transom, and at centres not exceeding 600 mm.

Manufacturer guidance

Aluminium is one of the most recycled materials on Earth and can be recycled endlessly into itself. It is 100% recyclable and retains its properties indefinitely.

Manufacturer guidance

Due to the global limited availability of recycled aluminium, the objective to increase recycled content to 75% doesn't have any environmental benefit. Increasing recycled content for 1 project or product only means other projects/products contain less.

However, Reynaers Aluminium works closely together with its suppliers to ensure a correct % of recycled content. As there is a variation between the recycled content provided by these suppliers, we communicate the annual averages.

For specific projects, Reynaers Aluminium can select a supplier with high recycled content, possibly with price impact and extended delivery times.

To improve the environmental impact of aluminium, Reynaers Aluminium focusses on following important aspects:

•   Use recycled content: work together with suppliers to ensure the use of recycled content. 

•   Purchase low carbon primary aluminium: decrease the CO2 impact of the primary aluminium, which is necessary to produce extrusion billets, by using low carbon primary aluminium, produced by green electricity (primarily hydro power).

•   Work closely together with European Aluminium to improve the global impact of aluminium production and improve sorting and recycling.

This approach has the most impact as it combines short term with long term improvements of the aluminium industry, to make a clear environmental shift.
