This suite was designed to cope with the increasing demand for double glazing whilst maintaining a traditional steel window slim aesthetic. The Belgian U Suite is currently offered for architectural, commercial and residential projects.
As of 1st May 2023 the required minimum R values for windows and doors used in the 6 newly classified climate zones within NZ will increase to 0.46 R in zones 1-4 and 0.50 R in zones 5 and 6.
As such we have had a thermal analysis report conducted by an independent engineering firm on our Hot rolled Belgian U suite in accordance with H1/VM1 appendix E and the results of which mean that when Belgian U suite is glazed with insulated glass units of a Ug value of 1.7 w/2 mK or better, Belgian U suite will achieve the minimum value of .50 R which in effect means that it can continue to be utilized in climate zones 1-6 throughout New Zealand.
