Customized Ceramic Fritted Glass for Facades

Silk-screened glass decorative glass for curtain walls

A curtain wall is a non-structural building envelope that is intended to support only its own weight and withstand the effects of environmental forces such as wind. It is not intended to support the weight of a roof or floor. Instead, gravity loads and wind resistance transfer from the surface to the building’s floor line. Since it is non-structural, it can be made of lightweight materials - glass and aluminum profiles to help reduce construction costs. We offer a variety of glass products that allows architects and designers to control every aspect of aesthetics and performance, including thermal and solar control, sound and security as well as colour, light and glare.

There are two main types of curtain walling construction: “stick” and “unitised”. In stick construction, the curtain wall frame is constructed mainly on site with mullions and transoms supporting glass, spandrel panels, metal panels and brise-soleils, connected piece by piece. Each mullion is usually supported by the floor or perimeter beams.In unitised construction, on the other hand, the curtain wall is composed of large units that are assembled in the factory, shipped to the site and erected on the building. Aluminium profiles are used to form the frame, which is normally one-storey high. Aluminium is typically used for facade frames because of its strength and stability. It is also highly durable, moisture and corrosion-resistant and 100% recyclable. Opening vents, glazing and infill panels are built into units before being transported to site. As with stick construction, each unit is usually supported by the floor or perimeter beams.

Glass curtain walls are not exclusive to commercial applications. They also provide viable glazing solutions for residences as well.

Ceramic Fritted Glass for Curtain Wall

Ceramic Fritting is a process by which glass enamel is fused on the glass surface. Before the glass is heat strengthened or tempered, Ceramic frit is applied to the glass through a fine mesh screen with glass enamel. After tempering or heat strengthening, the glass enamel becomes a permanent coating which cannot be further damaged or removed by cleaning, scrubbing, etc. Silk-screening is done by printing a layer of ceramic ink on the glass surface through a screen mesh. When silk-screened glass is combined with clear, tinted, Low-E, or reflective glass, it can control light transmittance and reduce solar heat gain while enhancing aesthetic and performance characteristics, giving strength, safety, privacy, decoration and solar control in one product.

Though normally suitable for IGUs, Ceramic frit glass can be used for both exterior and interior applications such as curtain walls, point fixed or bolted glazing systems, shower installations, glass doors and partitions. When used on building exteriors, the painted surface must be protected from direct contact with the environment.

We offer a wide range of colours and designs that fully or partially cover the surface of the glass for facade. Accept wholesale or OEM business.
