TECHNOLOGY Windows and doors are made with the guarantee of system GOS-C: Excellent thermal insulation with UF up to.w/m²k with UW to a 1.3W/m² K and with glass from UG 0.8W/m²K Excellent sound insulation up to 40dB with triple glazing Outstanding insulation and infiltration even under hard windy conditions. Anti Burglar Modern aesthetic perspectives reduce the block of frontal profile, provide a large enough glass area to ensure the best environmental lighting Apply simple construction to ensure consistent quality and affordability Low frequency of maintenance even in the case of heavy use The widest choices of accessories and configurations are achievable with a limited use of profiles The ability to make very small or very large windows and doors is depending on the configuration and required windproof function The GOS-C systems were designed in the base of the most modern criteria for the construction of windows and doors with the European groove. The achievable performances combined with high-level accessories of these systems guarantee to meet the highest quality standards. The profiles were designed to provide adequate mechanical strength and at the same time a low linear density. The thermal bars are designed to provide the optimum thermal insulation without affecting the needed economy to be competitive in large residential projects. 70 GACS: Standard Open joint DB: Doppia Battuta Inswing Outswing Pivot Stack Gasket Stack Gasket Stack Gasket Door 11,5 GACS 11,5 DB Door + fix 11,5 GACS 11,5 DB Door sashes 11,5 GACS 11,5 DB Window 11,5 GACS 17 DB Window + fix 11,5 GACS 17 DB Window sashes 11,5 GACS 17 DB Pivot 11,5 GACS Pivot + fix 11,5 GACS 4

CERTIFICATION OF PERFORMANCE GOS-C is tested and certified in accordance with European legislation, which is the best guarantee of worldwide recognized quality and performance. GOS-C was tested at the European notified laboratory in accordance with European regulations on the windows and doors, it's the best guarantee of universally acknowledged performance. ONLY FOR PRODUCERS SELECTED The careful selection of windows and doors Casement GOS Windows Maker is a further guarantee of system performance. The GOS Total Quality Partner is that windows and doors Casement manufacturer who has a Test Report according to European standards issued by an European Notified Laboratory; the use of the brand GOS requires the achievement levels of system performance. In European Test Report was presented a list of GOS windows and doors Casement components that achieved the performance. The windows and doors Casement manufacturers that have the GOS-C system are of renowned quality and ensure accuracy and reliability in the construction and installation, the indispensable essentials that exploits the high performance of the system for providing windows and doors Casement. 5

5 Features The GOS-C5 mm system is the best solution for the construction of windows and doors with small dimension profile combined with excellent thermal and acoustic insulation function. The aluminum profiles with thermal bars are manufactured according to European standards with very low tolerance on dimension in the time of guarantee constancy of quality. The system is designed for mounting brackets in corner for crimped cleat or caulk. Types achievable Inwardly opened windows and doors with one or two sashes with lateral fixed Inwardly opened tilt with one or two sashes with lateral fixed Top hung or bottom hung External side hung casement with lateral fixed External top hung casement with lateral fixed Internal balcony door one or two sashes with lateral fixed and transom fixed or opening External balcony door one or two sashes with lateral fixed and transom fixed or opening Pivot vertically or horizontally Sealing system The resistance to leakage, noise and drafts is guaranteed by the most modern constructive technology of gaskets in EPDM. The types in external opening use rubber gasket inside, while the types in internal opening use the technology of pre-chamber seal defined GACS (Standard Open joint) combined with vulcanised corner joints. This technology achieves a seal to infiltration of water more than 900Pa, which corresponds to heavy rain with wind of 140km per hour.
