Architectural aluminium systems specialist Technal’s new MX Acoustic is a new design option for its MX curtain walling range, to help architects and specifiers satisfy more demanding acoustic requirements.
The system uses a 32 mm to 42 mm infill to achieve airborne sound reduction and reduce external noise pollution’s impact. It is available as a flat façade or faceted up to 20° for the grid curtain walling and a facet of up to 10° for MX Trame Horizontale, which expresses the horizontal profiles.
Structurally bonded top hung concealed vents can also be supplied, and the system is fully compatible with Technal’s PXi door system and FXi casement windows.
In rigorous BS EN 13830 tests, MX Acoustic Grid achieved 1200 Pa for static water tightness, 2400 Pa for wind resistance, and level A4 for air permeability.
