Profils Systemes is equipped with six thermal break insulation lines

The process consists of notching an aluminium profile to attach a polyamide strip which is then integrated and crimped between two aluminium profiles.

The polyamide strip will break the conduction between the two materials. Aluminium thus contributes to the energy performance of buildings.

Profils Systèmes has been awarded the QB Building Quality Label for its thermally broken profiles.

What is Thermal Insulation ?

3 indicators which shows energetic performance:

Uw : It’s a thermal window coefficient. It gives the capacity to keep the inside temperature. We can express it in Watt/m² K. More it is low, more the window is insulated

Sw : It's a solar indicator for the window. It gives the capacity to keep the heat in the house

Tlw: It's a luminous transmission indicator for the window. It gives the capacity to keep natural light in the house.

UW depends on:

  • Ug : The thermal transmission coefficient at the center of the glazing.
  • Uf : The frame window coefficient.
