Curtain Wall Systems

FULLY GLAZED FAÇADE SYSTEMS

Curtain wall systems designed to deliver transparency, structural performance, and architectural impact across commercial and high‑rise projects.

Curtain wall systems form a key component of contemporary commercial architecture, providing fully glazed façades that prioritise transparency, daylight, and visual connection while meeting demanding structural and performance requirements. These systems operate independently of the building structure and must accommodate wind loading, movement, and weather exposure.

Hunter Windows delivers curtain wall systems designed to support architectural intent while addressing performance, compliance, and buildability considerations, working collaboratively with architects, façade consultants, and builders from early specification through delivery.

Typical Applications

Curtain wall systems are commonly specified for:

Commercial office buildings
High‑rise residential and mixed‑use developments
Institutional and public buildings
Landmark architectural projects
Buildings requiring high transparency and façade uniformity

Each application requires careful consideration of façade performance, structural integration, and construction methodology.

Key Performance Considerations

Curtain wall systems must address a combination of architectural, structural, and environmental performance factors, including:

Wind loading and structural performance
Building movement and tolerance accommodation
Weather resistance and water penetration control
Thermal and acoustic performance
Integration with glazing, spandrel, and framing components
Installation sequencing and access at height

Early coordination between façade design and building performance requirements supports reliable outcomes and reduces construction risk.

System Configuration & Integration

Curtain wall systems may be configured in a range of formats depending on project requirements, including:

Stick‑built curtain wall systems
Unitised or semi‑unitised assemblies
Integrated spandrel and vision glazing zones
Custom detailing to accommodate interfaces with structure and services

System configuration is guided by building height, exposure conditions, architectural intent, and construction methodology.

Compliance & Buildability

Curtain wall systems operate within stringent performance and compliance frameworks. Our approach considers:

Relevant Australian Standards and NCC requirements
Structural and façade performance testing
Interface coordination with structure, slabs, and services
Buildability, staging, and installation logistics

Detailed performance data, testing, and compliance information is available within our Resources section.
