thermal barriers for high performance commercial fenestration
©Azon 2015 TBFOLD009 rev5
• Lower U-factor achievable in most fenestration products*
• Lower thermal conductuctivity*
• Structural properties—bigger loading and greater spans*
• Highest shear of all thermal barriers*
• Azo/Tec® total design assistance to meet targeted performance
• Window requires 10 to 20 percent less aluminIum by weight*
*Proven material property comparsions with other types of thermal barriers systems
