Aluminum Curtain Wall Market Trends

Aluminum Curtain Wall Market Trends

The trend towards lightweight curtain walls in modern architecture is gaining popularity in terms of efficiency and practicality. These non-structural elements often made from advanced materials like aluminium, offer significant benefits over traditional construction methods. With advances in technology, architects are increasingly able to design façades with curved, or sloped curtain walling, to give undulating façades with wave-like effects and striking angles. Aluminium curtain walling lends itself to curved façades as the aluminium frames can easily be bent into the required shape.
 

Advances in insulation materials and design approaches are improving the thermal performance of aluminum curtain walls. Innovative insulation technologies, including as aerogels and vacuum insulation panels, are being integrated into curtain wall systems to minimize heat transmission and increase energy efficiency.
