Window Wall Product Categories
Captured
A captured window wall uses a glazing bead to trap the infill into the glass pocket. It may be either wet glazed or dry glazed.

Structurally Glazed
A structurally glazed system uses structural silicone or structural glazing tape in lieu of a glazing bead, either on 2 sides or all 4 sides for a seamless look.

Unitized
Unitized systems are pre-glazed, pre-sealed and pre-assembled in “units”—comprising one lite of glass and surrounding interlocking framing—that are then taken to the field and installed one by one onto the building structure. The bulk of labor moves from the field to the shop floor, where greater quality control can be achieved.
