Fire-Resistant Aluminum Glazed Systems: The New Standard of Safety and Modern Architecture – Procural

In today’s architectural landscape, the combination of safety and aesthetics is no longer an option but a necessity. Especially in commercial buildings with high human traffic, corporate structures, healthcare facilities, and modern residential projects, fire resistance has become one of the most critical elements of building design.

Responding to this need, fire-resistant aluminum glazed systems provide both visible and invisible protection, becoming indispensable components of modern projects.

In this blog article, we will evaluate these systems—manufactured under the Procural brand—from a broader perspective. In our previous article, we focused heavily on technical details; this time, we will take a more holistic approach while still touching on a few essential technical points.

We will also highlight the professional expertise of ACP Building Elements, a team that has played a significant role in the application processes of these systems for many years.

What Are Fire-Resistant Aluminum Glazed Systems?

Fire-resistant aluminum glazed systems are architectural safety solutions used in doors, partition walls, entrance areas, and façade applications. These systems provide protection for a specific period against high temperatures and flame spread.

The primary purpose of these systems is to:

• Delay the progression of fire

• Limit smoke passage

• Provide time for safe evacuation

• Maintain structural integrity for a defined duration

This performance is typically classified as EI30 – EI60 – EI90 – EI120, indicating 30 to 120 minutes of fire resistance in both integrity (E) and insulation (I).

Why Aluminum?

There are strong reasons why aluminum is widely preferred in fire-resistant systems:

• Lightweight yet durable

Despite its high mechanical strength, aluminum is a lightweight material. This makes installation easier and adds minimal load to the structure.

• Controlled thermal behavior

With the right profile design, internal filling materials, and special gasket technologies, aluminum can maintain form and stability under high temperatures.

• Perfect harmony with modern architecture

Its wide glass surfaces and slim, minimal profile lines give projects a modern, elegant appearance.

• Sustainability

Being 100% recyclable, aluminum is an ideal choice for environmentally friendly projects.
