Monumental curtain walls are perhaps the most characteristic feature of modern architecture. The combination of glittering glass panels embedded in an aluminium structure is an eye-catching sight that often reaches an artistic level. These huge surfaces have to meet numerous safety, energy and automation requirements.
They let natural light into the building and thus reduce lighting costs, their thermal insulation reduces heating requirements, and they inhibit or attenuate noise pollution. In terms of aesthetics, there are no limits to creativity - with professional Jansen systems, practically any shape and design is possible.
