Curtain Wall Systems in London

Design meets engineering in every façade we build.

At Bigness Group, we specialise in curtain wall systems — high-performance architectural façades that combine strength, energy efficiency, and visual elegance.

From commercial developments to modern residential blocks, we design, fabricate, and install curtain walls that define the skyline of London with precision and confidence.

Our systems merge light, structure, and insulation — turning glass into performance.

What Is a Curtain Wall System

A curtain wall is a lightweight, non-structural façade that hangs from the building frame and carries only its own weight.

It protects the interior from weather, improves thermal efficiency, and defines a project’s architectural identity.

At Bigness Group, we design and install both stick-built and unitised curtain wall systems, ensuring every façade meets modern standards for wind load, air tightness, and fire resistance.

We combine advanced fabrication with on-site precision to deliver façades that perform as beautifully as they look.

Our Curtain Wall Solutions

We offer tailored façade systems engineered for excellence and compliance:

  • Stick-Built Curtain Walls – Assembled on site, perfect for complex architectural layouts.

  • Unitised Curtain Walls – Pre-fabricated panels for faster installation and superior quality control.

  • Structural Glazing Systems – Frameless glass façades with hidden fixings for a clean, minimalist finish.

  • Thermally Broken Aluminium Systems – Energy-efficient façades with excellent U-values.

  • Fire-Rated & Acoustic Walls – Enhanced safety and sound insulation performance.

  • Integrated Louvres & Vents – Controlled airflow and concealed ventilation within the glazing design.

Every system is designed for compliance with BS EN 13830 and Building Regulations Parts B (Fire Safety) and L (Energy Efficiency).

Our Process

  1. Consultation & Design Brief – We collaborate with architects, contractors, and engineers to define the project’s vision and technical requirements.

  2. Structural & Thermal Calculations – Our team models wind loads, deflection limits, and thermal performance using approved software.

  3. Fabrication & Mock-Up Testing – Systems manufactured under ISO-certified conditions, with pre-installation performance testing.

  4. Installation & Quality Control – Delivered by trained façade specialists under strict safety and alignment procedures.

  5. Handover & Certification – Full documentation, warranties, and compliance sign-off provided at project completion.

This process ensures speed, safety, and precision from design to delivery.
