Senior reveals
new developments
at Ecobuild
Fenestration systems designer and
manufacturer Senior Architectural Systems is
gearing up to launch two brand new, innovative
products at Ecobuild - the SF52 and Pure
systems.
Pure is a revolutionary new aluminium window
system that can help specifiers achieve
exceptionally low U-values and high thermal
performances. The new Pure window range
is the first on the market to benefit from an
enhanced thermal barrier manufactured
from expanded polyurethane foam (PUR).
Traditionally used in cladding and insulation
products, the innovative use of PUR as a
thermal barrier in windows gives the Pure
system the potential to achieve U-values as low
as 0.8w/m2k and is both fully recyclable and
safe to handle.
Designed to exceed current and meet future
requirements, the Pure range is easy to
manufacture using existing tools to provide
the simplest yet most effective solution to the
specification of thermal-efficient windows. With
a generic Green Guide rating of ‘A’ for use
in commercial projects and a life expectancy
in excess of 40 years, Senior’s most recent
product innovation has also been developed to
meet the PassivHaus standard cycle.
Ideally suited for use across the sectors,
from education to healthcare, commercial to
domestic, refurbishment and new build projects,
Senior’s Pure range also boasts a number of
environmentally friendly features. Manufactured
using aluminium, which offers ‘cradle to cradle’
recycling, the PUR thermal barrier can also be
re-used as fillers for other products, with no
requirement for landfill.
The Pure range is available in a range of
standard finishes, both painted and adonised.
The SF52 system meanwhile is fully compatible
with Senior’s portfolio of windows and doors,
offers visual consistency, helping any project
achieve a uniformed appearance.
The system is capable of holding double or
triple glazed units ranging from 24mm to 50mm
in thickness via the use of various gaskets and
thermal breaks.
Both double and triple glazing options, up
to 57mm to maximise thermal and acoustic
performance, are catered for, with the additional
support of specification via Senior’s dedicated
SENIOR ARCHITECTURAL SYSTEMS
glazing division Senior Glass Systems being
available. With the reassurance of Senior’s
established heritage as one of the pioneers of
the UK fenestration industry, the new Pure range
is breaking new ground in the development of
thermally efficient window systems and yet is
competitively priced.
SF52 has been carefully designed and
developed to ensure that high aesthetics are
equally matched by consistent and reliable
construction quality. Suitable for ground floor

finishes both externally and internally.
