Alusys, a leading aluminum windows and doors company and part of the AB System Group, participated in the renovation of a private villa in Geneva, Switzerland, commissioned by RCN.
With a long experience in providing innovative and quality solutions, Alusys contributed significantly to the aesthetic and functional improvement of the property. The intervention included the installation of aluminum windows and doors from the ALU-K C67K series and lift-and-slide windows and doors from the ALU-K SC 156 series. In addition, Alucobond box panel cladding and glass parapets integrated with the cladding were installed, completing the project with ALU-K D67 series aluminum doors and residential model sectional doors.
Thanks to these solutions, the villa has achieved a new level of elegance and functionality, improving living comfort and energy efficiency.

Alucubond ventilated facades
ALUCOBOND is a composite panel obtained by a continuous manufacturing process that allows it to be cut to size.
It consists of two sheets of PERALUMAN aluminum alloy – 100 (Al Mg 1 ) 0.5 mm/cad. thick coupled with an extruded black polyethylene core for a total thickness of 6 mm.
The treatment of the exposed face will be carried out by oven pre-painting in two layers based on PVDF (Kynar) resins, thickness 30 microns, applied by “coil-coating” procedure in accordance with E.C.C.A. (European Coil Coating Association) regulations.
The advantages derived from these production steps are mainly:
- Exceptional stiffness-to-weight ratio.
- Absolute surface flatness.
- Ease of cold shaping
- Vibration and noise absorption
- Weather resistance and maintenance essence.
- Temperature range resistance: -50 to +80 C
- K-value (thermal transmittance): K=5.65 -5.15W
- Sound reduction: 25 db per 1000 Hz (DIN 4019)
- Fire behavior classification Italy: Class 1
Sunshade Slats
HELLA’s sunshades and Venetian blinds do more than just darken; they guide and dose daylight according to the user’s needs, giving comfort to living spaces and creating ideal conditions for productivity in the workplace. In addition to regulating light, these products also act on room climate, reflecting the heat of sunlight and thus contributing considerably to protection from summer heat. The louvers provide light orientation with modern, geometric optics. The AR 92 model offers a quality sunshade with edged slats 0.45 mm thick and 92 mm wide, which, in addition to ideal protection from the sun, prying eyes and heat, provide perfect room darkening. The patented stainless steel clip tape (ECN), which joins the slats, provides exact packing, perfect loop formation and, therefore, minimal package height. The sunshade slats can be operated by cable or rail, with crank or motor operation.
Benefits to you:
- Excellent light orientation
- Available with anchor cable or guide (wind-resistant version: cable and guide)
- Excellent darkening
Sliding ALU-K SC156
The lifting sliding system, with very high thermal, acoustic and sealing performance, allows you to enjoy the view and sunlight comfortably from your living room in total safety.
The series allows you to meet every architectural requirement. There are many, in fact, the types that can be realized: opening with one or more sashes even of large size, realization of all-glass corners, possibility of the sliding of the sashes inside the wall.
The high load-bearing capacity of the trolleys (400 kg) combined with the reduced visible dimensions and clean lines make this system a modern and design object, suitable for every design requirement.
Glass parapet system
l “all-glass” parapet with maximum protection against falling
The parapet combines the elegance and aesthetics of an all-glass solution with maximum simplicity in construction and installation.
At the same time, it provides very high performance of fall protection.
It can be installed on the floor, in front of the slab or embedded in the floor itself.
The latter configuration in particular emphasizes the minimalist design, with glass as the main protagonist, providing exceptional visual continuity and transparency.
In designs where the aluminum profiles are most visible, separate covers allow for the management of different finishes and colors between the inner and outer faces, for total integration with the surrounding environment.
The innovative system of adjusting and locking the glass sheet allows all installation steps to be carried out from the inside, thus ensuring more safety for the operator and faster and easier installation.
In line with the latest and most restrictive standards in terms of safety, it is suitable for all uses, in residential, in public or non-public offices and in buildings subject to great crowding, such as schools, restaurants, stations up to environments dedicated to large public events such as concert halls and grandstands of sports arenas.
