Lifecycle cost comparison of glass wall curtains and conventional façades—initial capital, maintenance, energy and replacement factors for regional projects.
Early integration with structure, MEP, and cladding trades, clear interface drawings, and coordinated sequencing prevent delays in Gulf and Central Asian projects.
Effective waterproofing uses multi-stage drainage, captured gaskets, back-pan systems, and tested air seals suitable for Gulf humidity and Central Asian temperature swings.
Choose non-combustible cores, thermal continuity, matching finish to vision glass, and accessible replacement detailing for Gulf and Central Asian projects.
High-rise projects in the Middle East require curtain walls with low U-values, high solar control and condensation mitigation tailored to desert and continental climates.
Typical warranties cover materials and workmanship for 5–10 years; extended façade system warranties and performance bonds mitigate owner risk in Gulf/Central Asia projects.
