Based on the Schüco LivIng system dimensions, using patented aluminium profile rolling technology turns Schüco LivIng Alu Inside into a steel-free profile with maximum thermal insulation alongside a high level of cost-effectiveness and flexibility in fabrication and installation.
Schüco LivIng Alu Inside is the next logical development of the Schüco Alu Inside system. It is based on patented aluminium profile rolling technology, whereby continuous aluminium strips are simultaneously extruded into PVC-U profiles. They provide the entire construction with a level of stability which almost rivals that of steel-reinforced profiles. With this highly thermally insulated PVC-U system, steel-free windows which are suitable for passive houses can be produced economically on an industrial scale.
Thanks to its 7-chamber profile construction, the dispensation with steel reinforcement and the targeted positioning of the aluminium hinges, Schüco LivIng Alu Inside has no thermal bridging. Here, the material within the profile system – a high-quality aluminium alloy – is a distinct advantage because it reflects approx. Because it reflects approx. 90% of the thermal radiation due to its polished surface. The optimum division of the chambers, the reduction of the rebate space and additional, large insulation zones to accommodate optional insulation blocks allow insulation values to be achieved.
Schüco LivIng – the new generation for pioneering PVC-U doors
Twin system = One system with two versions (AS/MD)
The Schüco LivIng PVC-U system is an innovative 7-chamber system that can be constructed as a twin system with both a rebate gasket and a centre gasket. In conjunction with the centre gasket, the system achieves passive house standard in accordance with ift Rosenheim. As a system with a rebate gasket, excellent thermal insulation properties and narrow face widths are also achieved.
The first weld-on gasket is integrated in the Schüco LivIng window system. Using elastic, weld-on material increases the sealing effect in the difficult corner area of the unit, whilst also allowing for a closed, visually appealing corner design without hard gasket corners. The durable, eco-friendly material keeps a tight seal throughout its entire service life.
White profiles are supplied with modern, silver-grey gaskets, foiled profiles are available with black gaskets.
Profiles can be coloured with a large selection of single colour and woodgrain decorative foils, Schüco AutomotiveFinish and Schüco TopAlu.
The PVC-U system Schüco CT 70 AS with rebate gasket is based on a 5-chamber technology. Excellent thermal insulation properties and narrow face widths in three different vent contours are the distinctive features of this system.
Schüco CT 70 AS window systems are suitable for a wide variety of uses in both new-build and renovation projects. An extensive range of accessories ensures a high level of system security.
The two drainage levels guarantee an optimum protection aginst wind, rain and noise.

Innovative lift-and-slide system – highest requirements combined with economical fabrication
The new lift-and-slide system from Schüco combines maximum fabrication and installation efficiency with the highest standards of comfort and design.
The innovative Schüco LivIngSlide lift-and-slide system has been designed on the basis of the Schüco LivIng system dimensions, as the basic depth of the vent frame is 82 mm. This compatibility of the systems offers access to a wide range of accessory profiles, such as glazing beads and other glazing accessories. The uniform system dimensions ensure simple and flexible planning as well as the implementation of attachment options. The significant reduction in the number of parts minimises the work and costs required for storage.
The new lift-and-slide system also offers a range of construction benefits, for example, the steel reinforcements in the vent frame as closed rectangular tubes. This significantly increases the design’s stability and allows large units with vent weights up to 400 kg to be constructed.
A particular highlight of Schüco LivIngSlide: the factory-rolled, weldable EPDM glazing gaskets in the vent frame. They ensure soft inner corners even after the welding process and thereby optimum weathertightness in this area. Continuous sealing on several levels between the vent and frame trim also reliably prevents draughts and the build up of condensation. In order to prevent sloping roller carriages, a roller carriage support is used to ensure secure centring and fixing.
Another strength of the new lift-and-slide system is its attractive appearance. The flush design avoids the typical gaps in the fixed field and creates a modern, streamlined appearance which is also easy to clean. The narrow centre joint guarantees maximum light penetration. Schüco LivIngSlide offers a wide variety of design options thanks to its incorporation in the Schüco colour range.
