Suitable for applications requiring glazed steel windows.

Description

Forster unico is a thermally insulated profile system for fixed and opening windows.

The basic profiles comprise 100% recyclable steel and contain no synthetic insulating materials – in contrast to all other insulated systems. This innovation, uniquely evocative of a framework style of construction, satisfies the most stringent demands relating to physical and structural functions.

  • Narrowest facing widths for single and double vent casements from 62 mm and fixed glazing from 30 mm.
  • Compatible with Forster fire and smoke protection systems.
  • Fillings up to 60 mm (triple insulation glass).
  • Wet and dry glazing, stress-relieved and drained.
  • Stove enameling or powder coating with no temperature restrictions.
  • SHEVS according to EN 12101-2 for side-hung and tilt only windows.
  • Outward opening windows, tested in accordance with BS6375-1.
  • Parallel slide and tilt windows (PST).
  • CE marked.
