MB-79N Casement – Outward-Opening Window System

 

The Bertrand MB-79N Casement is an advanced outward-opening window system featuring a thermal break and designed to create modern architectural elements such as windows, storefronts, lobbies, and spatial structures. It provides excellent thermal and acoustic insulation, combined with superior air- and watertightness, meeting the highest standards of energy efficiency and environmental performance.

Three variants of aluminum profiles are available, each offering different technical parameters to meet specific design needs:

  • E variant – the basic solution with a single-component central seal,

  • ST variant – featuring a two-component central seal,

  • SI variant – equipped with additional insulating inserts between the thermal breaks for superior insulation performance.

 

Thanks to the rigidity and versatility of the profiles, the MB-79N Casement system allows for the construction of large, heavy, and durable window structures, while maintaining smooth operation even for small-sized vents.

 

Key Advantages

 

  • Designed for outward-opening configurations ideal for modern façades and ventilated designs

  • High structural rigidity enables large window sizes and heavy glazing

  • Excellent insulation performance ensures energy efficiency and interior comfort

  • Precise gasket engineering guarantees long-term air and water protection

  • Fully compatible with the Bertrand MB-79N family for unified production and design flexibility

  • Easy production and installation, optimized for manufacturers and architects alike

Functions and Aesthetics:

 

  • Profile depth: 2.76 in (70 mm, frame) and 3.11 in (79 mm, casement) — these depths create a continuous internal plane when the window is closed.

  • Glazing thickness ranges: Frame: 0.06–2.13 in (1.5–54 mm) / Casement: 0.41–2.48 in (10.5–63 mm) — supports double or triple glazing, acoustic or burglar-resistant units.

  • Thermal variants: Available in E, ST, and SI variants — SI includes insulating inserts and dual-component central gasket to enhance thermal performance.

  • Kinematics and narrow vents: The system enables construction of narrow, operable vents (excellent kinematics).

  • Compatibility and parts interchangeability: The Casement variant is compatible with other MB-79N systems, allowing the shared use of glazing beads, gaskets, fittings, and accessories.
