TRU Curtain Walls deliver the ultimate in window design and engineering. With structural glazing systems, a completely flush-fitted façade design is possible. An innovative generation of fittings with a particularly streamlined range enables the use of heavy vent weights - utilizing our zero sightline windows. For more security and comfort, there is a specially developed ratchet stay for projected tophung opening units, which secures the window at any opening angle for changing wind loads. Fabrication is streamlined by reducing the total number of individual parts to be processed and using similar parts. The systems are suitable for luxury residential applications, and custom curtain walls are available in a virtually limitless array of sizes and configurations. TRU can accommodate exceptionally large openings that do a great deal more than look spectacular - they control light, temperature, and noise.

Add-On Wood
Anodized Aluminum
Anodizing is an electrochemical process, in which the aluminum is immersed in an aqueous electrolyte solution. This results in a colourless, transparent oxide film, which protects the long-term appearance of the metal while producing a sleek, subtle finish. Clear anodized aluminum is the TRU standard, and a select range of tones are available.
Kynar Paint
Our multiple coat Kynar paint is the coating of choice for pre-formed architectural aluminum, and it's available in an array of colors. All TRU products can have a consistent finish utilizing this paint. Kynar is suitable for coastal, desert and mountain climate, as it's is resistant to chalking, fading, chipping, and peeling.
Kynar liquid coatings meet AAMA 2605 performance specifications.
Stainless Steel Look
For the look of Stainless Steel, TRU Stainless Steel Clad provided exceptional value and reinforcement. Finishes are sleek and include polished gunmetal, polished steel, and brushed steel.
