Eco-innovative, frameless wood window with premium design, highest energy saving performance and maximum open area

Objective

We, the consortium responsible of W2C, composed by WECO and VIJO will place in the market a triple-glazed, high-performance insulating wood window named W2C “Window to See”. Its unique design has been patented and has received two international recognized awards (Red Dot Award 2015, Architect’s Newspaper ´15). W2C will be the first window in the market that combines the strict energy-saving standards demanded by the Passive House Institute and a frameless design that maximizes the window´s open area. It is oriented to the niche growing market of “Passive Housing”- highly energy efficient buildings-, offering an alternative to current thick framed windows. Its price is 15% cheaper that the average price of the references in this segment and the lighter structure allows us to offer larger sizes, up to 6 x2.75m. With this window we expect to obtain a relevant position in the market and create 16 new jobs.
