The EI60 classification is a rigorous European standard (EN 13501-2) indicating that the window provides 60 minutes of both Integrity (E) and Insulation (I). Integrity means the window will physically prevent flames and hot gases from passing through the barrier. Insulation means it will actively block the transfer of dangerous radiant heat, ensuring the unexposed side remains cool enough to allow safe passage for evacuating personnel and first responders.
Yes, absolutely. The thermal break is specifically engineered to perform a critical dual role. During normal daily operation, it prevents thermal bridging to ensure exceptional energy efficiency. In the event of a fire, the core steel structure maintains the window's rigid integrity, while specialized intumescent seals embedded within the frame expand rapidly to fill any gaps. This ensures the fire-rating is never compromised by the melting of the thermal break components.
Fire-rated insulated glass is inherently heavy due to its multi-layered composition. To counteract this, our frames are constructed from high-yield cold-rolled or hot-rolled steel, which possesses immense structural rigidity. Furthermore, we utilize heavy-duty, anti-sag architectural hinges specifically rated for extreme load-bearing applications. This engineering ensures the sash remains perfectly aligned and operates with a smooth, fluid motion for its entire 50 to 100-year expected lifespan without dropping or warping.
Yes, the window is designed precisely with smart building ecosystems in mind. We can factory-fit high-performance, concealed electric actuators that interface seamlessly with your Building Management System (BMS) or central fire alarm network. Depending on your specific fire strategy, the system can be programmed to automatically snap shut to compartmentalize a fire, or open outward to serve as an Automatic Opening Vent (AOV) for rapid smoke extraction.
For projects located in demanding climates, standard paint is entirely insufficient. We utilize a comprehensive multi-stage defense system. The raw steel is first treated with either an electrophoretic deposition (E-coat) or hot-dip galvanizing to provide a robust, penetrating anti-corrosive base. This is then finished with an architectural, outdoor-grade powder coating. This powerful combination completely seals the steel from salt, moisture, and chemical pollutants, virtually eliminating maintenance requirements and preventing rust entirely.
