FWS 35 PD — Facade Systems
Maximum-transparency mullion-transom facade system · Schüco International KG (Germany)
Schüco FWS 35 PD (Panorama Design) is a mullion-transom aluminum facade system from the German manufacturer Schüco International KG, with a visible profile width of just 35 mm on both the outside and inside of the building. The system offers a ready-made integrated solution for frameless glass corners without vertical mullion profiles, tie rods, or spacer bars.
Architecture filled with light, and maximum transparency without compromise: representative Panorama Design facades deliver a flawless exterior appearance and an ideal view to the outside, meeting the highest requirements of premium residential and commercial construction. The system platform's extended range of accessories includes visually unobtrusive fixings for Schüco sun-shading systems and tested burglar-resistance solutions.
Schüco AWS window elements — including those with concealed Schüco TipTronic drives — as well as the Schüco ASS 77 PD sliding door system integrate seamlessly into the Schüco FWS 35 PD facade, with a unified profile line and no visible transitions or offsets. Combining different Schüco Panorama Design systems makes it possible to realize the concept of a fully seamless building envelope.
