FORSTER UNICO XS

Information about the system

Forster Unico XS is a highly thermally insulated steel system for slender external windows, doors and fixed glazing. Its 100% steel construction, without conventional plastic thermal breaks, combines high strength with exceptionally narrow sightlines and good thermal insulation performance.
A wide range of opening options, the possibility of incorporating curved profiles and designs inspired by traditional fenestration make the system well suited to both contemporary architecture and the renovation of heritage and former industrial buildings.
