The YCW 750 XT SSG yields best-in-class thermal performance and exceeds not only current codes, but also exceeds the most stringent green building coes and standards in the market today.  Due to this fact, it integrates well with YKK AP's ThermaShade® sunshades and Luminance® Light Shelf sun control products.  This vertical two-sided structural silicone glazed curtain wall system has captured 2 1/2" sightlined horizontals utilizing YKK AP's MegaTherm® technology with structural polyamide struts that accommodate standard 1" glazing units.  YKK AP's MegaTherm Technology provides an effective thermal barrier, which helps to save energy and reduce condensation.  To ensure long-term structural integrity, the dead load of the insulating glass rests on integrated structural supports, diverting this load away from the thermal barriers.
