Who we are

About GlasFëns

About us

Built for commercial, modular and Passive House & PHIUS projects.

GlasFëns Window Systems USA is a supplier of high-performance windows, doors and façade systems for buildings across North America. Our focus is fiberglass, with aluminum for hurricane and high-wind applications, all based on proven European systems and fitted with German hardware. We exist to do one thing exceptionally well: deliver energy-efficient fenestration that performs at the highest level, approaching zero.

Our components come from manufacturers who have been producing window and door systems for generations, recognized leaders across Europe, with hardware from Roto, Siegenia and G-U, all engineered and made in Germany. That precision and attention to detail is what makes a GlasFëns system perform quietly and reliably for decades.

Stronger than the storm.
Warmer than the cold.

Glass walls

A wall of glass that insulates like a wall.

R‑23 at the center of the glass puts a window wall in the same range as an insulated stud wall, so floor-to-ceiling glass no longer has to be the weak spot in the envelope.

Performance

Building science, in the open.

Every frame section is modeled in LBNL THERM, and every number on our site says whether it was tested, calculated or depends on your project.

Glass

Vacuum glass, R‑23 at the center.

Every ZERO package is the same hybrid build-up: an outer lite and an 18 mm argon cavity, stacked with a two-lite vacuum glass unit. It fits the standard F-Series glazing pocket and carries a 25-year warranty on the vacuum unit.
