Carbon Dioxide emissions from energy used in buildings account for 37% of global CO2 emissions.* (*UNEP, IEA 2021). AZON’s thermal barrier technology is designed to reduce “Operational Carbon,” the energy used by a building after it is constructed.

Conserving energy, while reducing greenhouse gasses, is possible in commercial buildings when windows are produced with AZON solutions in the framing system.

AZON’s thermal barrier technology allows aluminum fenestration manufacturers to achieve the highest energy efficiency while maintaining strength and durability.

Here is how AZON is leading:

• Highest shear of all thermal barriers
• Highest temperature resistant polyurethane polymer
• Fully encapsulated mechanical lock in the curtain wall frame allows for wider spans in the façade

As the thermal barrier material with the lowest conductivity, the expanded polyurethane core allows for commercial windows and doors to meet stringent global energy standards including:

• Energy Star
• Passive House
• International Energy Conservation Code (IECC)
