The 21st Century Bronze Age

ABX™ (Architectural Bronze Extrusions) is an innovative and technically advanced system of extruded profiles, purpose designed for use in window or door applications.

The use of copper alloy in construction applications has significantly increased over recent years due to the material’s exceptional stability, strength and resistance to corrosion. Another key attribute is the aesthetic appeal of its natural patina which unlike many other perhaps often more favoured materials, actually improves over time and exposure to the elements.

Section Profiles

The ABX™ system comprises the following section profiles:

W65
- Thermally broken conforming to Building Regulations Document L
S60
T50
L80

The locking, hinging and gasketing accessories are sophisticated proprietary systems.

Profile Appearance

The ABX™ System surfaces are carefully burnished to an attractive natural lustre that unlike many other man made systems, offers a natural resistance to the potentially destructive effects of aggressive environmental agents such as air, pollution, ultra violet radiation and salt.

Applications

Being so intrinsically versatile, the systems lend themselves to numerous applications but are ideally suited to prestige commercial and residential development projects and also restoration of historical and listed buildings, such as Heritage Sites and churches.

Installation & Maintenance

The systems can be fitted directly to masonry or via sub-frames. Maintenance involves nothing more than occasional washing with non-abrasive solutions.
