Slimline Aluminium Windows
»»Steel windows have long been
admired by specifiers for their slim lines
and unobtrusive looks. Aluminium systems
companies have tried to replicate the ‘steel
look’ with varying degrees of success - until
now.
With a fixed light and opening light
aluminium face width of just 32.5mm
Aluprof ’s new ‘MB Slimline’ window
offers both good looks and high
thermal performance. U values of
below 1.00 W/m2K are achievable,
as the new system will accept both
double and triple glazing options
coupled with aluminium profiles
which use wide polyamide thermal
break. With a wide range of profiles
available, the ‘MB Slimline’
system can offer high inertia
ratings and slim, deep
profiles.
Ideally suited to both
new and replacement

projects, in both residential and commercial
environments, where slim lines are crucial
to the aesthetic appearance of the building,
the ‘MB Slimline’ system offers a complete
solution.
‘MB Slimline’ is further proof of Aluprof ’s
innovative approach to fenestration solutions,
establishing itself as one of Europe’s leading
systems companies.
The new system joins a wide portfolio of
aluminium systems which includes curtain
wall systems, doors windows and high
performance aluminium fire rated systems.
With the UK head office and distribution
base in Altrincham, Cheshire, Aluprof
systems are specified on a growing number
of residential and commercial projects across
the UK. Systems are designed, fabricated
and installed by selected, specially trained
companies, to ensure each fabricated product
meets Aluprof ’s exacting standards.
