Core Advantages
- Minimal-frame facade appearance with high transparency and a clean structural glass aesthetic.
- Large glass panels maximize daylight and maintain a clear visual connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.
- Stainless steel point fittings provide a precise architectural detail and a durable connection system.
- Tempered laminated safety glass options support strength, impact resistance, and safer post-breakage behavior.
- The support structure can be engineered with steel frames, trusses, glass fins, or cable-supported solutions to suit the building design.
- Suitable for entrance walls, atriums, lobbies, stair halls, showrooms, and high-visibility commercial facades.
System Features
- Point-fixed glass panels reduce the need for traditional mullion framing and create an open, lightweight facade effect.
- Bolted fittings, rotules, spider connectors, brackets, and structural supports can be selected according to project load and facade layout.
- Glass joints can be sealed with weather-resistant structural silicone to support a neat, continuous surface.
- Panel dimensions, fitting spacing, glass thickness, edge processing, and support details are developed according to project engineering requirements.
- The system can be paired with entrance doors, skylights, railings, and other glass facade components for a coordinated architectural package.

Material and Performance
- The glass build-up is selected according to facade height, panel size, wind load, safety requirement, thermal target, acoustic requirement, and local building standard.
- Tempered laminated glass is widely used for point-supported facades because it combines strength with improved retention after breakage.
- Stainless steel fittings provide corrosion resistance and a refined technical appearance for exterior and semi-exterior facade conditions.
- Accurate factory drilling, edge processing, fitting alignment, and installation tolerance control are essential for long-term facade performance.
- Drainage, sealant joints, structural movement, and connection interfaces are coordinated during shop drawing and engineering development.

FAQ
Q: Is this system suitable for public buildings?
A: Yes. With engineered support structures and suitable safety glass, point-supported glass curtain walls are suitable for public and commercial facade applications.
Q: Can the facade layout be customized?
A: Yes. Glass panel size, fitting spacing, support structure, joint design, and hardware selection can be customized according to project drawings.
Q: What glass is commonly used?
A: Tempered laminated safety glass is commonly used. Insulated glass, Low-E glass, tinted glass, fritted glass, and customized glazing options are also available.
Q: Can the hardware be selected for coastal environments?
A: Yes. Stainless steel 316 hardware can be specified for coastal or highly corrosive environments, depending on project requirements.
