air-lux

Perfect for free window shapes - the air-lux pivot windows The air-lux pivot windows and pivot doors guarantee full architectural freedom and a unique variety of shapes. Thanks to the inflatable air seal, window shapes become possible that could not be realized with conventional sealing concepts. Windows and doors become fascinating design elements, as their shapes change when they are opened.

Innovative design meets maximum functionality: Villa Sidonius in Prague ✨ A masterpiece of modern architecture: Villa Sidonius floats above a steep northern slope and offers a breathtaking view of the Berounka Valley thanks to the air-lux sliding window systems. The flexible steel construction masters structural movements perfectly and ensures a unique living experience. Architects and façade planners, let yourself be inspired! The challenge for the air-lux sliding window system was movements in the base area of up to 5 millimeters. Due to the flexible steel construction, the building moves up and down over its entire life cycle, whether due to snow in winter or expansion of the steel in summer. In contrast, the greatest movements in concrete buildings occur within the first 2-3 months and are of a static nature. As the air-lux system is the only system that seals laterally and therefore does not use labyrinth seals in the vertical mullion, the system can absorb much greater tolerances (production, assembly, glass, profiles, etc.) and construction movements. Labyrinth seals are very susceptible in this respect and already leak in the event of subsidence or inaccuracies of 1-3 mm in the base area. 4 motorized air-lux sliding windows were installed. 👉 Read more: https://lnkd.in/evBWPnyx 𝗔𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲: Stempel & Tesar architekti 𝗦𝗮𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿: ARNOLD 1990 s.r.o.

air-lux wins iF Design Award 🏆 Thanks to our partnership with Schüco International KG, our air-lux technology is also the heart of the new Schüco AS AL 75 sliding system. This sliding system, specifically designed for high-rise buildings, received the iF DESIGN AWARD 2024. Among 10,000 entries from 70 countries, it was able to convince the jury in its category. This was achieved thanks to the membranous, inflatable air seal of air-lux, which ensures 100% tightness in the development from Engelburg. High interactive wind loads, building movements, driving rain, and high noise levels pose particularly significant challenges to the tightness of sliding systems in high-rise construction. This is the latest in a whole series of awards that air-lux has received in recent years. The air seal for large sliding windows, descending windows and pivot doors proves once again how unique it is! 👉 Learn more: https://lnkd.in/e8ZpPqeZ #airluxwindows #schueco #ifdesignaward2024 #slidingwindows #swissmade #descendingwindow #pivotdoor #swissness

Until now, sliding windows have been used only very rarely in high-rises, as the lack of contact pressure in the seal has resulted in permeability issues. Whether it’s lift-slide, parallel sliding or brush seal systems: although the installed systems met the impermeability requirements according to their test results, they failed in practice because building movements, structural sagging and tolerances were not taken into account. The patented air seal used by air-lux is the first system to introduce a completely new approach and guarantees 100% impermeability over the entire life of the product, with no compromises. 💪🥳 Sealing with air is the ingenious solution for high-rises!
