Direct factory fenestration packages fabricated under ISO 9001 and CE EN 14351-1 standards for high-end residential villas, commercial facades, and hospitality developments.
Flush casement window systems represent the pinnacle of modern architectural minimalism, where the outer window sash sits completely flush with the outer frame profile in a singular outer plane.
Meric Window extrudes primary 6063-T6 and 6060-T66 grade aluminium alloys, ensuring minimum tensile strengths exceeding 205 MPa. Wall thicknesses range from 1.6mm to 2.2mm, maintaining strict structural rigidity across large-span openings without thermal warping.
Thermal isolation is achieved via multi-cavity 24mm to 34mm Polyamide PA66 strips reinforced with 25% glass fiber. This matches the thermal expansion coefficient of aluminium alloy frame sections, eliminating shear stress failure while blocking thermal bridging.
Equipped with non-aging cellular EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) gasket loops across central, inner, and outer sealing zones. The pressure-equalized drainage design routes driving rain seamlessly through hidden sub-frame weep channels.

As global building codes enforce near-zero energy building (nZEB) standards and circular economy frameworks, fenestration procurement is shifting rapidly toward verifiable performance credentials.
Procurement directors are demanding Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs). Future fenestration relies on hydro-powered or post-consumer recycled aluminium extrusions, reducing embedded carbon by up to 75% while retaining structural ductility and finish longevity.
Next-generation flush casement systems feature built-in motorized chain actuators completely hidden inside the frame profile. Fully integrated into automated Building Management Systems (BMS), these windows automatically adjust for natural night-purge ventilation and rain sensors.
Architectural firms require full LOD 300 to LOD 400 BIM objects early in the design stage. Meric Window provides standardized Revit and IFC models with embedded thermal, acoustic, and hardware structural data for rapid facade integration.
Integrating advanced CNC automation, rigorous QA testing, and full export compliance to deliver seamless fenestration packages direct from China to job sites worldwide.
Every frame junction is cut using automated dual-head 5-axis CNC saws and joined with pneumatic corner crimping combined with two-component polyurethane corner adhesive (Schüco style), preventing water ingress and corner joint separation over decades of operation.
Extrusions are treated with Qualicoat Class 2 architectural powder coatings or 3-coat PVDF fluorocarbon coatings designed for extreme salt-spray maritime environments, guaranteeing resistance against chalking, fading, and UV degradation for over 25 years.
Before container dispatch, representative samples from every project batch undergo real-time testing in our in-house test chamber to verify compliance with EN 1026, EN 1027, and ASTM E283/E331 standards, accompanied by factory test certificates.
Addressing key technical, regulatory, and logistics queries from architects, facade consultants, and general contractors during project procurement.
CE Certification under EN 14351-1 requires verified testing for thermal transmittance (EN ISO 10077-2), air permeability (EN 12207 Class 4), watertightness (EN 12208 Class E1200), wind load resistance (EN 12210 Class C5), operating forces (EN 12046), and acoustic insulation (EN ISO 140-3). Every shipment from Meric Window includes complete Declaration of Performance (DoP) documentation and factory production control logs.
Meric Window engineers concealed sub-frame drainage channels. Water entering the primary weather barrier is directed downward into a sloped internal chamber beneath the glass sash and exits through hidden weep vents located on the underside of the outer frame profile. This ensures clean exterior profile aesthetics while maintaining watertight integrity under extreme storm pressures up to 1200 Pa.
Yes. Our reinforced flush casement profiles support glazing thicknesses from 28mm double-glazed IGUs up to 52mm triple-glazed acoustic laminated units (e.g., 6mm Low-E + 16Ar + 4mm + 16Ar + 6.38mm Acoustic PVB). Heavy-duty concealed stainless steel friction stays (hinges) support maximum sash weights up to 180 kg per opening sash without sashing sag.
For standard RAL powder-coated finishes (such as Anthracite Grey RAL 7016 or Jet Black RAL 9005), production lead time is 25 to 35 calendar days following shop drawing approval. We accommodate project-based procurement with flexible MOQs, supporting sample mockups for large developments as well as full container shipments (20GP / 40HQ) with custom steel-stillages and fumigated wooden crates.
Because our thermal break profiles utilize independent interior and exterior aluminium extrusions joined by Polyamide PA66 strips, we offer dual-color finishes. Developers can specify dark architectural finishes for exterior facades (e.g., Anodized Bronze or Matt Black) while choosing light powder coats, anodized natural silver, or tactile wood-grain sublimation coatings for interior rooms.
Finished windows undergo protective surface film application, thick EPDM corner guard installation, and thermal shrink-wrapping. They are secured inside fully enclosed plywood crates or heavy-duty steel transport racks fitted with lifting lugs for forklift site handling, avoiding glass-to-glass contact during container transit.
