WICONA Unisys
Reduced complexity!
WICONA Unisys – the secret of the success
Fully flexible with a limited number of individual parts
The WICONA Unisys principle really is the secret behind WICONA’s success.
Modular in design, it incorporates perfectly matching components for
all of WICONA’s system designs from windows through to entire façades.
This creates many advantages for you. You can save on warehousing space
and costs, as the number of parts and components is kept to a minimum.
You can cut the time spent on planning a construction project and you
need less time to prepare too. Finally, the use of the same parts and tools
makes for a higher degree of process security during the execution phase.
At the same time, you can enjoy absolute freedom as you design individual
solutions, leaving you more time to deal with your customers’ wishes.
The modular design of WICONA Unisys also means that functional changes
can be made at a subsequent time to the building component.
Differing technical properties can be realised, without any visible sign from
the outside. With this unique blend of unlimited functionality and the
ultimate in flexibility, you can stand out from the competition and guarantee
your market success.

FAÇADE SYSTEMS
Experiencing innovative façade technology
WICTEC
WICTEC is more than just a name for a product group. It stands for the
very latest brand of attractive and functional aluminium profile
façade design. WICTEC makes façade technology fascinating – for you
as the metal construction experts just as much as for your customers.
It encompasses an overall concept of modern-day architecture
that reconciles the elements of heat store, air conditioning, light provider,
sun screen, fire and noise protection and design within one single façade
design. With WICTEC you can be sure to meet these multifunctional
requirements. And it makes no difference whether your client is the little
baker‘s shop round the corner or an elegant company HQ in the centre
of the city.
8
WICTEC Systems
It is up to you to use WICTEC façades to create the looks of the future, turning
design sketches into physical realities. What we at WICONA want is that
you have a real sense of this fascination and can therefore also inspire a similar
enthusiasm in your customers. With this in mind we are not only working on
new developments but are also working just as intensively on concepts and details
that can help you to leave the competition behind in your normal day-to-day
business.

FAÇADE SYSTEMS
Versatility and flexibility
Optimal thermal insulation
WICTEC is synonymous with façades! Whether you require classic mullion-transom
designs, element, window or all-glass façades through to three-dimensional
objects such as pyramids, polygons, barrel vaults or cupolas – with WICTEC anything
is possible.
They epitomise the latest look but not all WICONA designs look exactly the same,
as you, the planner, and your customers have a choice of five profile views
ranging from 50 to 90 mm. A further example is the Wictec 50EL prefabricated
element façade, made from standard parts. This can be used if a particularly
rational assembly process is required with a correspondingly fast construction
process.
Thanks to the WICONA Unisys principle and the compatibility with WICONA window,
door and sliding systems, WICTEC offers an exceptionally flexible façade system.
The range of possible technical options and the design freedom are enormous.
Example: Narrow face widths.
Achieving the best possible thermal insulation is one of the most demanding
properties of a façade in these times of high oil and gas prices, the need for
the ultimate in energy efficiency and climate protection.
WICONA is a pioneer in thermal insulation systems, be it through high-quality
coatings for the profiles or on the basis of special design features.
We can work with you to develop technical solutions for energy-optimised
and sustainable building concepts which will continue to meet the requirements
of modern constructions for many years.

WINDOW SYSTEMS
Function and design for buildings with character
WICLINE
Every building is unique. And individually designed windows are a key part
of any special architecture, determining the aesthetic of the entire façade
and setting the character of the building. The WICLINE system provides
the best means of producing complex yet attractive window designs that
offer a high level of functionality and precise dimensioning.
The WICLINE range includes multi-level concepts for security and for both
thermal and noise insulation, whilst WICSTAR offers a high-quality range
of fittings as well as a full range of additional accessories.
12
WICLINE systems
Your ideas and craftsmanship are crucial when it comes to individual customers’
wishes. Thanks to the great variety, numerous shapes and types of opening,
WICLINE windows can be specifically tailored to the individual building and wishes
of the customer.

WINDOW SYSTEMS
Higher Energy Efficiency
An ever higher share of the operating and maintenance costs incurred for buildings
can be attributed to heating, air conditioning and ventilation. This applies
to buildings new and old. Whilst it is frequently the case that detached and semidetached family homes nowadays have been made more energy-efficient,
the situation with regard to blocks of flats or office, industrial or commercial buildings
is in some cases still very different, with a great deal of catching up still to be done
in the area of energy conservation.
14
This is where your opportunity lies: Replacing old windows with state-of-the-art
insulating WICLINE models is one of the most important things you can do to save
energy. And that will definitely get your customers interested.

The WICONA technical information platform at www.wictip.de/.com/.ch places the entire
WICONA system documentation at your fingertips. Data such as product-range lists,
processing guidelines, brochures, test certificates and design information can be called up
and viewed interactively, with links to related information.
Tools
Under the WICTIP Tools heading, software tools for calculating technical data are
provided. For example, the U values of windows in accordance with EN 10077-1 can be
calculated in their simplest form. If you modify the settings (e.g. the Psi value) the result
is calculated immediately. An appropriate graph is created in order to show the influence
and interdependence of the profile, glass and compound edge.

Innovation: WICONA Finder
WICONA Finder is a new internet platform with unique application benefits for metal
construction companies. The site provides access to detailed information about
projects which have been realised with WICONA systems anywhere in the world.
If you have a specific task for a building project and want to verify your design
or construction options, you can find examples of how similar tasks have already
been implemented successfully in the real world of construction. With the aid
of these results, you can check your own requirements, find suitable products
and technical details, and specify in greater detail. The platform is interactive,
meaning that, as a user and WICONA customer, you can help to shape the tool.
You can request varying levels of information according to you own knowledge
and interests, and can also upload you own references in the protected area called
“My WICONA Finder”. Here you can present and manage your references and the
corresponding detailed information. The benefits for you as a metal building company
is that you can demonstrate your capabilities on the basis of actual projects, pictures
and technical details and provide your own target groups (architects, authorities,
end users) with tailored information about your company’s achievements.

SAFETY & SECURITY
– In-built proactive security and safety
One of the primary functions of a building and its façade is to protect the people
and valuables inside. For this reason, WICONA products naturally comprise
protection against break-ins, against penetration by bullets, and against fire and
smoke. What is more, we are constantly working to refine and improve these
protection systems.
The challenge for you as a specialist metalwork business is in providing your
customers with a perfect combination of safety and security and of functionality
and visual appeal. WICONA quality products offer you all the options you need
to accomplish this, with plenty of scope for you to produce tailored solutions
for your customers.
