Unitized Curtain Wall for Mid-Rise & High-Rise Buildings
Factory-glazed panels bring repeatable quality, controlled joints and floor-by-floor enclosure to apartments, public buildings, commercial developments and towers — with movement, anchors, logistics and lifting engineered as one system.
When scale, repetition and programme must align
Unitized curtain wall is established for major multi-storey and high-rise programmes. Starveil develops panel dimensions, brackets, anchors, stack joints, integrated facade elements and zone logistics around the actual building — from a repeated residential elevation to a public venue or tower.
- Floor-by-floor enclosure — panel sequencing follows structure, internal trades and the date each zone must become weather-tight.
- Factory-sealed quality — glazing joints made indoors, under QA, not on a windy slab.
- Movement accommodation — stack joints, anchors and perimeter interfaces are coordinated for slab movement, thermal change and wind response.
- Zone-based logistics — stillages, containers and lifting plans are matched to the site crane, floor sequence and storage constraints.
- Integrated expression — fins, spandrels, screens, vents and BIPV zones can be coordinated before panels leave the factory.
- Traceable delivery — panel IDs, inspection records and installation zones connect shop drawings to handover.
The numbers, and what they mean for your building
| Parameter | Typical specification | What it means for you |
|---|---|---|
| Cassette size | Commonly one storey high; width and weight engineered per project | Panel geometry balances glass size, transport limits, structure, crane capacity and installation sequence. |
| Thermal performance (Uw) | 1.1 – 1.6 W/m²K; triple glazing available | Meets cold-climate energy codes with margin, and passes condensation-risk review quietly. |
| Air & water performance | Class A4 / RE 1200 Pa equivalent (EN); ASTM-mapped | Weathertight from the first panel — because the seals were made in the factory, not on site. |
| Installation strategy | Floor-by-floor or zone-based, coordinated with site lifting | Production, stillage packing and erection follow the construction programme rather than a generic panel count. |
| Wind classification | Regional class engineered per project (incl. cyclone) | Bracket and pull-out tests documented in the handover file for exposed regions. |
| Tolerance handling | Adjustable brackets ±25 mm three-way | Imperfect slabs still get a straight facade — adjustment happens at the bracket, not by reworking panels. |
Typical values shown for guidance; every project is engineered to its own loads, climate and code, and the quotation states the tested configuration that applies to you.
Factory coordination can carry more than glass.
