Corporate Footprint & Structural Engineering Rigor
Registered in 2017, Ningbo Novax Building Materials Co., Ltd. operates an expansive, Industry 4.0-ready production facility spanning 40,000 square meters. Rooted in 9 years of specialized architectural fenestration expertise and 6 years of international direct-export experience, Novax generates an annual export volume reaching $30 million USD. Our primary export corridors encompass North America, the Caribbean basin, and South America, catering explicitly to high-wind coastal commercial developments, hardware importers, structural glazing contractors, and luxury residential master-planners.
Product excellence and regulatory compliance are maintained by an internal division of 60 dedicated Quality Control (QC) engineers executing rigorous structural wind load testing, water penetration analysis under forced pressure, and dynamic hurricane impact resistance evaluations. Backed by strategic integration with over 1,100 qualified raw material suppliers, Novax offers unprecedented OEM/ODM customization options—ranging from heavy-duty thermal break polyamide profiles (PA66-GF25) and specialized anodized/fluorocarbon (PVDF) surface treatments to smart home automated sensor integration. Spearheaded by 72 R&D structural engineers, our design studio launched 85 innovative, patent-backed window systems in the past fiscal year alone.
The CE Mark Advantage (EN 14351-1 Standard)
Our CE Certification guarantees compliance with European Union Construction Products Regulation (CPR No 305/2011). Under EN 14351-1, Novax aluminium sash windows undergo rigorous third-party testing for air permeability (EN 12207 Class 4), watertightness (EN 12208 Class E1050), wind load resistance (EN 12210 Class C5), thermal transmittance (EN ISO 10077-2 U-values down to 0.8 W/m²K), and acoustic damping (EN ISO 717-1 up to 45 dB).
Next-Gen Aluminium Sash Windows: Technical Roadmap & Engineering Horizon
The evolution of vertical sliding sash windows has transitioned from traditional timber aesthetics to advanced structural metallurgy. Modern architectural requirements demand extreme thermal isolation, massive glass daylight ratios, and seamless structural integration into zero-energy building envelopes.
Vacuum Insulated Glass (VIG) Synergy
Incorporating 0.3mm micro-vacuum gaps into double and triple sash units allows thermal U-factors as low as U=0.4 W/m²K—outperforming solid brick walls while eliminating sash weight penalties on counter-balance mechanisms.
Smart Motorized Vertical Actuation
Embedded brushless linear actuators coupled with IoT wind/rain sensors enabling automated night purge ventilation, automated building management system (BMS) integration, and touchless smartphone UI control.
Circular Economy Aluminum Metallurgy
Utilizing Hydro CIRCAL® ultra-low-carbon aluminum profiles containing ≥75% post-consumer scrap metal, reducing embodied carbon footprints to under 2.3 kg CO2 per kg of aluminum extruded.

|---|---|---|---|
| Thermal Transmittance (U-Value) | 3.8 - 4.5 W/m²K | 1.2 - 1.6 W/m²K | 0.4 - 0.7 W/m²K |
| Max Wind Pressure Resistance | 1500 Pa (Class 3) | 3000 Pa (Class 5 / ASTM E330) | 4500+ Pa (Hurricane Impact Zone 4) |
| Acoustic Isolation (STC / Rw) | 26 - 30 dB | 38 - 42 dB | 45 - 50 dB |
| Counterbalance System | Manual Lead Weights / Cord | Heavy-Duty Spiral Balancers | Precision Spring Tension / Electric Linear Drive |
| Weatherproofing Seals | Single Felt Strip | Triple EPDM Continuous Gaskets | Multi-Chamber Magnetic Compression Gaskets |
Macro Industry Solutions: Engineered for Extreme Global Geographies
Architectural envelope demands vary drastically across continents. Novax custom-engineers aluminium sash windows to satisfy stringent regional structural engineering codes and micro-climatic stress factors.
Coastal Hurricane & Typhoon Zones (Caribbean & Florida HVHZ)
Designed to meet TAS 201/202/203 and ASTM E1886/E1996 large missile impact criteria. Features heavy-wall 6063-T6 extruded aluminum profiles (2.0mm wall thickness), multi-layer SentryGlas® (SGP) laminated glass interlayers, and high-strength anti-lift sash locks. Resists sustained wind pressure loads exceeding ±70 PSF.
Cold Climate Passive House Applications (Nordic & N. America)
Engineered with polyamide thermal break channels (PA66-GF25, 24mm to 34mm depth) inserted between inner and outer aluminum extrusions to break isothermal bridge lines. Paired with triple argon-filled double Low-E glass units, eliminating interior sash condensation down to ambient external temperatures of -35°C.
High-Density Urban Acoustic Dampening
Urban inner-city developments require defense against broad-band noise pollution (traffic, aviation, rail). Novax asymmetrical double glazing (e.g., 8.76mm laminated + 16mm Argon gap + 6mm toughened glass) achieves acoustic dampening ratings up to Rw 43dB, protecting occupant wellness in luxury high-rises.
Heritage & Luxury Commercial Restoration
Combining Victorian aesthetic profiles, traditional Georgian bar layouts, and tilt-in sash functionality for effortless exterior glass cleaning from the interior. Provides historic district aesthetics with state-of-the-art aluminum durability and security ratings (PAS 24 / EN 1627 RC2).
China Industry 4.0: Production Line Rigor & Operational Precision
Within our 40,000 square meter smart factory, Novax deploys digitalized production control systems across every phase of fabrication. From 6063-T6 raw aluminum billet inspection to automated double-glazed unit (DGU) sealing, our zero-defect policy guarantees operational efficiency and delivery speed for global enterprise clients.
