80 mm doors from Novoferm
- now with 80 mm ALU NovoLux sections and quadruple glazing
Werth, January 2019. The fundamental criteria for the quality of industrial doorsare speed, operational safety, reliability and property-specific design options. Depending on the user or area of application, the best possible thermal insulation or light-friendly transparency also play a decisive role. As a leading European system supplier of doors, gates, frames and operators, Novoferm covers these different requirements with the Thermo and NovoLux door series. With the Thermo 80, Novoferm has set the highest standards in terms of thermal and sound insulation. Now, with the NovoLux 80, the company is presenting a new high-end sectional doorwhich offers almost limitless possibilities for playing with light and vision and, thanks to the 80 mm panels, has an outstanding heat transfer coefficient.
In the logistics sector, fast and smooth processes with as little downtime as possible are a decisive competitive criterion. However, maintaining an appropriate infrastructure comes at a high energy cost. This is particularly evident in the ever-growing logistics centres, which, with their several hundred gates, guarantee the immediate handling of every lorry. On the one hand, the quality of the insulation is a decisive factor for the energy balance of the facility, as the doors are closed on average more than 90 % of the time. On the other hand, doors are often an important part of the architectural lighting concept and should also support the overall design. This is what the NovoLux series stands for, which also offers significantly improved insulation values with the NovoLux 80.
In the NovoLux 80, the door leaf is made up of several sections. Specially dimensioned and thermally separated aluminium profiles enable a variety of frame constructions with a large selection of options for filling the sections. The standard version of the door has quadruple glazing with a correspondingly low heat transfer coefficient. Novoferm offers a wide range of qualities, colours, transparency levels and designs for the panes. The principle behind this is "maximum and needs-based functionality with maximum leeway for the architect" - both in the design of the NovoLux doors and in the appearance of the entire building.
Of course, the Thermo 80 door from Novoferm also offers design freedom, but here the developers focussed on the aspect of thermal insulation. The door has a significantly lower heat transfer coefficient than the predominantly used doors with 40 mm or 60 mm thick panels. However, Novoferm has not limited itself to reinforcing the panels: The special quality of the seals between the panels guarantees an optimum seal. In addition, the rubbers for sealing the periphery have been functionally and thermally optimised and the side seals have been used in three versions.
With the NovoLux 80 and Thermo 80 doors, Novoferm is demonstrating the top products in its range at BAU 2019, which fulfil the highest demands in terms of functionality and design at the cutting edge of technology.
