A long-standing reference point in the field of architectural metal frames, Astec chose from the very beginning to specialize in copper alloys, investing heavily in research and development to create its own patented system of architectural bronze profiles.
The result is ABX® – Astec Bronze eXtrusion: an exclusive system of thick-walled extruded copper alloy profiles, complete with dedicated accessories for operation and closure, double sealing gaskets, and open-joint technology.
This versatile system is available in both cold-profile and thermally broken versions, making it ideal for doors, windows, and glazed elements of any shape or size.
Choosing ABX® means adding prestige to any building, whether it’s a modern environment or a historically significant restoration, with the security of a state-of-the-art product certified according to European standards for CE marking and meeting the requirements of American ASTM and NFRC standards.
ABX® – Astec Bronze eXtrusion is a well-established system in Astec’s production, highly regarded for its excellent performance in sealing, thermal insulation, acoustic reduction, and resistance to break-ins. It is available in both cold cut and thermal break versions.
ABX® - Astec Bronze eXtrusion requires only cleaning as far as maintenance is concerned, and is available in the following ranges:

The slimmest in the range for fixed frames, windows and balcony doors with thermal break.

Thermal break range for large size entrance doors, pivot doors and swing doors.

Thermal break range for large size entrance doors, pivot doors, double swing doors and lift&slide system.
