Angulo Window
Angulo Window
Our signature storm-resistant systems are optimized to mitigate severe Atlantic wind pressures and thermal load requirements for Lisbon and Portuguese coastal zones.
The Lisbon metropolitan area, spanning from the Tagus estuary to the rugged Atlantic shorelines of Cascais, Sintra, and Estoril, faces unique meteorological demands. High wind loads brought by Atlantic depressions, coupled with intense atmospheric salinity (C5-M marine corrosion classification), require structural exterior glazing that surpasses standard European window builds.
For modern developments, architects and building contractors are shifting toward high-performance hurricane impact windows. These systems combine multi-layer laminated PVB or SGP interlayers with robust structural aluminum profiles. Beyond storm protection, they solve critical regional requirements: thermal insulation to satisfy Portuguese REH regulations, and acoustic dampening to neutralize urban and flight-path noises in downtown Lisbon.
Our custom-configured models satisfy specialized regional projects demanding specific structural dimensions, high thermal barrier performance, and unique framing configurations.
Foshan Angulo Window Co., Ltd. leverages state-of-the-art automation and advanced metallurgy to supply heavy-duty hurricane impact systems worldwide, combining structural safety with cost-efficiency.
Our 30,000+ sqm manufacturing facility uses advanced automated cutting and extrusion centers to secure dimensional tolerances within 0.1mm, ensuring flawless assembly and optimal weatherproofing.
All impact-rated glass configurations undergo stringent laboratory drop tests, high-velocity projectile testing, and positive/negative pressure cyclic load simulations compliant with EU and Florida standards.
By handling everything from primary aluminum profile sourcing to final insulating glass unit (IGU) assembly internally, we eliminate third-party delays, guarantee quality control, and keep lead times predictable.

Our extensive product catalog provides specialized window systems for residential, high-rise, and light industrial applications across coastal regions.
A high-performance impact window is more than just thick glass. At Angulo, our window systems use advanced composite material layups and structural frame design to provide multi-barrier defense. We utilize multi-cavity thermal break aluminum profiles alongside heavy-duty UPVC materials, ensuring both high structural integrity and low thermal conductivity.
Our laminated safety glass features high-density polyvinyl butyral (PVB) or SentryGlas Plus (SGP) interlayers. In a high-velocity impact event, the glass may crack, but the fragments remain bonded to the interlayer. This prevents wind pressure from entering the building envelope, protecting the structural integrity of the roof and walls.
Key technical details regarding international standards, materials, and importing high-performance windows to Lisbon, Portugal.
Our impact-resistant window systems are fully certified according to the European standard EN 14351-1, carrying the CE mark necessary for installation throughout Portugal and the wider EU. In addition, our manufacturing and testing procedures align with American standards (including Miami-Dade County TAS 201, 202, and 203 protocols, as well as Florida Building Code approvals). This dual testing ensures our products withstand both severe Atlantic wind loads and impact forces from flying debris.
SentryGlas Plus (SGP) ionoplast interlayers are approximately five times stronger and up to 100 times stiffer than traditional Polyvinyl Butyral (PVB) materials. Under intense wind loads, SGP laminate remains structural and rigid even if both glass panes are fractured, preventing the window from flexing or blowing out. Furthermore, SGP offers superior edge stability and resistance to moisture intrusion, making it highly durable against the salt air typical of Lisbon's coast.
We treat our marine-grade structural aluminum extrusions with specialized pre-treatments, followed by electrostatic powder coating or fluorocarbon (PVDF) finishes. This treatment meets Qualicoat and AAMA 2605 specifications, providing high resistance to salt-spray corrosion, UV exposure, and peeling. This long-lasting protection ensures the windows remain functional and aesthetically pleasing along coastal areas like Cascais and Sintra.
Standard production time is between 30 to 45 days, depending on configuration complexity and order volume. Sea transit from Shenzhen/Guangzhou ports to the Port of Lisbon typically takes 30 to 35 days. We use heavy-duty, customized wooden crates with internal shock absorption to protect the glass during shipping, ensuring all products arrive on site in perfect condition.
Our windows feature multi-chamber polyamide thermal barriers (Thermal Break technology) paired with double or triple glazing and Low-E coatings. This structure achieves window U-values down to 1.1 W/m²K, which complies with EU Net-Zero Energy Building (NZEB) standards. It also minimizes heat gain during hot Portuguese summers while retaining warmth during damp Atlantic winters.
