Until now, sliding windows have been used only very rarely in high-rises, as the lack of contact pressure in the seal has resulted in permeability issues. Whether it’s lift-slide, parallel sliding or brush seal systems: although the installed systems met the impermeability requirements according to their test results, they failed in practice because building movements, structural sagging and tolerances were not taken into account.

The patented air seal used by air-lux is the first system to introduce a completely new approach and guarantees 100% impermeability over the entire life of the product, with no compromises.
