The coloured external trims are applied when the building is nearing completion to keep in an undamaged and pristine finish, obviating the need for protection. This feature allows thermal separation, is cost effective and has the ability to provide different colours inside and out. The system incorporates neoprene gaskets fully moulded at the corners and with internal tubular gaskets to give a controlled pressure to the glass over the total perimeter. All glazing is carried out from the inside (depending on design application).
