Schüco Façade FWS 60 CV


New generation of classic and floor-to-ceiling ribbon windows with a broad range of applications – including maximum transparency, very narrow face widths and extremely high functionality


Over the last few years, continuously increasing demands on sound and thermal insulation have led to ever larger window profiles. And it seemed that the technical requirements were irreconcilable with an elegant, continuous frame system. Now, with the Schüco FWS 60 CV (Concealed Vent) façade system, Schüco has found a revolutionary solution for ribbon windows, which combines extremely slimline face widths with the highest degree of functionality and optimum thermal insulation. The innovative system generates maximum transparency by merging the vent with the load-bearing structure: fixed fields and opening units are indistinguishable from the outside – unique in the industry. Only on the inside do a flat slimline shadow gap and the window handle betray the opening units.


Two basic depths combined with the individually applicable attachment to building structure enable different possible uses with extremely simple installation: from classic, floor-to-ceiling ribbon windows to punched openings. Schüco FWS 60 CV provides existing and new buildings with an elegant visual enhancement as well as excellent thermal insulation values.
