TECHNAL VALUES

DESIGN IS SECOND NATURE

TECHNAL approach to design is closely linked to the process of innovation.

Intelligent design is fundamental to new product development, helping meet building occupiers’ requirements for sound, advise and ease of use. Designs also incorporate the latest technologies to deliver the functional, technical, aesthetic, environmental and economic specifications for each project.

TECHNAL is committed to developing products that facilitate fabrication and installation to reduce programme times and further improve quality.

The brand can offer exclusive finishes and a wide spectrum of colours to give the aluminium systems their own distinctive identity and further design flexibility for architects, fabricators and home owners.

INNOVATION IS OUR BUSINESS

One of brand’s principle strengths is its commitment to innovation and to research and development allowed by the Technal Brand Development Centre based in Toulouse – France.

The centre’s role is to create the products of the future and to ensure that Technal’s systems are designed and manufactured to be fully integrated and compatible.

All TECHNAL products, both standard systems and profiles that have been adapted for specific projects, are fully tested in accordance with all relevant national and international regulations.

Technal also has independently approved testing facilities, which allow us to assess the thermal performance, weather tightness, wind resistance and durability of each product.

Tests have shown that TECHNAL systems often exceed the required standards, allowing even greater design flexibility for specifiers and giving further reassurance and peace of mind for developers and building occupiers alike.

WORKING FOR THE ENVIRONMENT

The intrinsic qualities of aluminium, its infinite recyclability, strength and lightness, durability and low maintenance qualities mean it is one of the most sustainable building materials.

Technal is also working with leading industry specialists to continually improve recyclability and to reduce carbon emissions during the life cycle of brand products.

Research and development work into insulation has achieved an impressive four-fold increase in the thermal performance of TECHNAL systems over the last 20 years.

And the trend towards larger glazed spans has resulted in increased solar gain in winter and less reliance on artificial lighting.

ALL THE GUARANTEES AND MORE

Technal has had ISO 9001 certification in place since 1993 and its expertise in the design, manufacture and distribution of its products and systems is well known.

The performance of systems is in full compliance with European standards. The Qualicoat and Qualanod marks certify the quality of finishes for polyester powder coatings and anodising.
