The FSX 100 is a carefully engineered stick-frame system developed to combine refined aesthetics with simple installation. Designed for vertical, sloped, or faceted applications, it provides a range of capping and thermal solutions to accommodate diverse project requirements.
Novastruct’s FSX 100 50mm Curtain Wall System provides you with a versatile, project-tested platform for creating distinctive high-performance facades.
Featuring a straightforward installation process, FSX 100 has been extensively proven to deliver reliable weather performance across a wide range of configurations, including vertical, sloped and faceted applications.
With U values as low as 1.93W/m²K, FSX 100 combines strong thermal performance with practical functionality for a broad spectrum of projects, including commercial, public, education, healthcare, residential and logistics developments.
FSX 100 is fully supported by Novastruct’s comprehensive technical expertise, providing assistance throughout every stage of the specification and construction process.

Safe and Sustainable
Novastruct curtain wall systems use simple, sustainable materials to maximise reuse and recyclability at end of life
Frame materials are 100% recyclable, while the extruded aluminium contains more than 75% recycled content
Design Considerations
A wide range of mullion and transom options enables façades to be designed with reduced structural support requirements. The choice of mullion is determined by a number of factors:
· The span (distance between fixings to the supporting structure)
· Mullion centres (up to 3.0m using FSX 100 curtain walling)*
· Wind loads (up to 2400 Pa)
· Maximum infill weight (up to 600kg)
· The deflection limits of the glazing system
· The required drainage method, either zone or mullion drainage
Additional Information
The RT 72 Reflex Aluminium Door is a thermally broken, modular aluminium system, engineered to deliver strong thermal performance and robust weather resistance within a refined, slim-profile door solution. Developed around patented Reflex thermal technology, RT 72 doors provide design flexibility across commercial, residential and refurbishment projects, while supporting specifiers in meeting increasingly stringent performance standards.
