Glazing
All our glazing units come with the option of double or triple glazing. Double glazing has the benefit of maximum daylight penetration, while triple glazing reduces the amount of heat and light that can enter through the glass, which helps regulate indoor environments.
All glazing comes with a laminated inner pane which enhances safety and mitigates the risk of UV rays fading interior furnishing and surfaces. The laminated glass is constructed using two glass sheets with a very thin layer of polyvinyl butyrate (PVB) between them, providing the highest quality and durability.
Each glazing unit comes with warm edge spacers to guarantee thermal breakage and energy efficiency.
Silk Screen
The Vario by VELUX glazing units also come with a 115 mm black silk screen which is designed to protect the pre-fitted gasket system from the sun and to enhance the overall aesthetics of the product.
Frame
Vario by VELUX frames are built using lightweight aluminium. They’re highly durable, strong and selected for their excellent corrosion resistance, joint strength and malleability. Thanks to Corner Keys, the frame provides a smooth surface and a seamless connection. Each frame is treated as standard with either RAL 9005 Jet Black or RAL 7043 Traffic Grey polyester powder coating to enhance durability, as well as weather and corrosion resistance. Specifiers can customise the powder coating with a variety of special colours.
Sealant
When manufacturing the frame, we use a highly durable and weather resistant adhesive silicone to fix the glazing unit to the aluminium frame. The silicone we use is also regularly used in the structural façade glazing industry when building skyscrapers.
