Thermlock® Thermal Technology
Multi-chamber thermal break with 28mm glazing delivers a centre pane U-value of 1.0 W/(m²K) — far superior to traditional 24mm polyamide systems. Keeps your home warm and energy bills low.

50mm Ultra-Slim Sightlines
Consistent 50mm rafter, hip, and ridge sightlines maximise the glass area, flooding your space with natural light while keeping the frame minimal.

Ultra-Low-Line External Profile
Rafter and hip top caps sit close to the glazing level, and corner end caps run perfectly in line with the perimeter — no unsightly angles, just clean contemporary lines.
