Today, modern, sustainable architecture is about much more than maximum energy efficiency through the best possible U values. Contemporary aluminium façade systems also feature a slimline appearance, high-quality design and the perfect integration of functional units combined with optimum performance, for example, for insert units. Schüco architects and planners develop innovative designs, allowing them to deliver tested, reliable systems as well as unique solutions tailored to individual projects.

Our innovative Schüco door systems offer solutions that set new standards for modern, future-oriented architecture in terms of energy, security, stability, automation and design. Whether as a stylish entrance door or a project door subject to heavy use, the future-oriented systems offer architects and specifiers functional, use-oriented solutions for every requirement – with a wide range of design options.

A balcony not only makes your home life more comfortable, but also increases the value of your property. Schüco balconies offer a wide variety of designs, optimum system compatibility, individual design options and a high level of weather resistance. They are suitable for newbuilds and existing properties.

Sun shading reduces cooling loads, making an important contribution to energy saving in modern residential and commercial buildings whilst simultaneously improving the well-being of its occupants. The sun shading can be perfectly integrated in the building envelope on the inside, on the outside or in-between, ensuring the building has an attractive appearance.

The demand for functional, flexible façades continues to increase. This makes it all the more important for architects, investors and building users to be able to enjoy new creative freedom. FACID makes it possible to create adaptable façade concepts which can be used to showcase a range of different building structures in a more attractive way. The sophisticated system technology behind the textile façade allows for functional and exceptional design freedom alongside practical benefits. The result is an impressive, intelligent solution for meeting the ever-increasing requirements for building architecture.

The surface finish has evolved from its original purpose of protecting mill-finish aluminium surfaces to become a distinctive design feature. The surface finish combines aesthetic appeal with the requisite protection.

The façade is more than simply an envelope made of aluminium and glass. When equipped with smart technology, it becomes an intelligent interface between indoors and outdoors, automatically and intelligently controlling temperature, air quality, access, glare protection and sun shading in the building. Smart façades are connected to a comprehensive control system and are therefore instrumental in improving your building's energy balance, reducing time and resources spent on building management, enabling more flexible use of the property, increasing value retention, and most importantly ensuring a healthy work environment for the users and residents.

Fire and the associated smoke can pose a danger to life. It is therefore essential to be well protected against these dangers in buildings, too. We design and develop fire protection solutions for buildings across all products. Schüco provides fully tested system solutions for doors, façades, windows and partition walls, including fittings and glazing. These fulfil a wide range of fire and smoke protection requirements.

The EU Building Directive from 2021 requires a largely balanced energy balance (nearly zero energy) for new buildings. With the combination of highly thermally insulating building envelopes and the Schüco building-integrated photovoltaic system (BIPV), Schüco offers the right solutions. BIPV modules are  not only a visible sign of environmental protection and sustainability, but are also an important component in the realization of low-, zero- and plus-energy buildings. The building-integrated photovoltaics take over a variety of functions of other building materials and elements such as weather protection, thermal insulation, sun and privacy protection as well as sound insulation, fire and burglary protection, while at the same time increasing the energy balance of the building by generating electricity.

Windows allow you to look outside from within a building. They provide both the right amount of light penetration and a sufficient level of privacy. At the same time, the style of a window is just as important to users as its functionality. Whether it is for a newbuild or a renovation, Schüco windows are available in many basic depths, in a wide range of opening types and with practical comfort components. You'll find the right window for any application – from barrier-free and sound-reducing options through to panorama windows with the narrowest face widths.

From raw bars to the finished component with just one machine: 5-axis and multi-axis milling machines take on the cutting, bar processing, complex notches and 3D processes easily and efficiently. Optimise your entire fabrication process with CNC milling machines from Schüco.

Precision and efficiency in manual metal fabrication with Schüco. Be it aluminium, steel or PVC-U profiles, fabrication milling machines offer a great deal of flexibility in machining. The crimping machines are particularly suitable for transom profiles of façade systems.

The profile locking bar machines from Schüco Fabrication make locking bar fabrication as easy and reliable as possible. The calculations of the individual went sizes and resistance classes are performed automatically thanks to optimised software.

The glazing clip machine from Schüco speeds up your assembly process in window fabrication. This machine enables the insertion of into the glazing beads at uniform intervals.

With fabrication machinery, we support you with all tasks in the fabrication process for windows, doors, façades and special profiles. Like the corner crimping machines, our innovative solutions always have the same aim: to optimise your window construction workflow. Our corner crimping machines connect metal profiles effectively and ensure a long-lasting, secure construction.

This offers a number of benefits for your fabrication process:

• Fast window assembly while maintaining a high level of quality

• Time saved with each individual window assembly

• Low consumption of resources

• Significant cost reduction

Assembling cut profiles is an essential process step in metal fabrication. The aim of Schüco Fabrication is to optimise assembly processes in the fabrication set-up of our metal fabrication partners, whether it's with the latest corner crimping machines, locking bar machines or gasket cutting machines.

A high-quality saw for metal fabrication is an essential for every workshop involved in the industrial-scale fabrication of metal goods, material and objects. With an extensive offering of different metal saws and sawing machines, Schüco has the right machine for your needs.

A balcony increases not only living comfort, but also the value of a property. Schüco balconies and balustrades come in a huge range of designs, with optimum system compatibility, individual design options and high weather resistance – and with safe and rational fabrication.

The mitre saw is a tool that almost every workshop has in its arsenal. Cutting material to a certain length at 90° is never enough on its own. Making mitre cuts at all different angles is part and parcel of metal fabrication and should therefore be straightforward. With this in mind, a mitre saw is a highly recommended investment for your workshop.

Our systems are installed where there is a particular danger to people and property. They therefore offer maximum protection. We made it our task to develop perfect solutions which offer the highest degree of security, functionality and customisation.
