High-performance mullion/transom façade with 50 mm face width – the basis for a variety of solutions.
The Schüco FWS 50 façade system is an impressive basic system for façades and skylight areas with a high level of flexibility and attractive design options, including optimised fabrication and installation processes. Thanks to a broad system range, solutions for the most varied requirements and applications can be implemented. A transparent system solution integrated in the profile for spandrel safety barriers blends seamlessly and elegantly into the external façade appearance. The required safety barrier loading for floor-to-ceiling opening units and low spandrel heights can be implemented with consistent profile face widths and a continuous profile. The mullion/transom façade with 50 mm face widths offers a high degree of design freedom with a large selection of pressure plates and façade cover caps as well as the combination with Schüco window, door and sliding systems.

Schüco AOC 50/60
- Profile-integrated spandrel safety barrier for floor-to-ceiling opening units and low spandrels ensure a minimalist and harmonious façade appearance
- Wide selection of pressure plate profiles and façade cover caps, also in stainless steel, for the most varied of design requirements
- Integration of diverse insert units from Schüco window, doors, and sliding systems
Passive-house certification for add-on construction on steel (ST) and timber (TI) with outstanding performance characteristics
With the façades systems, skylight constructions and large vertical façades are easy to manufacture to passive house standard. The Uf values of the system construction on steel and timber are as low as 0.8 W/(m²K) (including screw factor) and match the stringent requirements of the Passive House Institute in Darmstadt. For triple glazing in particular, large pane dimensions can be accommodated easily for the add-on construction in terms of load transfer and screw guide owing to innovative and patented system articles. In the sensitive roof area in particular, the innovative sealing system ensures maximum thermal insulation with optimised fabrication thanks to an integrated screw guide. The Schüco AOC add-on construction with 50 mm and 60 mm system widths on steel (ST) and timber (TI) combines energy-efficient construction with efficient fabrication and installation.
