Architectural Emphasis

TECHNAL TENTAL Trame aspect allows architects to create bold horizontal or vertical lines across a curtain wall façade, adding depth, rhythm and visual identity to the building envelope.

The system combines sleek 50mm and 60mm sightlines with extensive glazing options, supporting clean modern façades that bring light, openness and architectural impact into commercial and public sector projects.

Dortech designs, manufactures and installs the TECHNAL TENTAL Trame system from project-specific information, transforming TECHNAL’s aluminium profiles into completed curtain walling packages.

Horizontal Line

The horizontal line option is used where the design intent is to draw the eye across the building elevation, creating a long, structured and contemporary façade expression.

TENTAL Trame supports a wide range of configurations, allowing project teams to achieve strong horizontal definition while maintaining a refined and technically robust curtain walling system.

Vertical Line

The vertical line option places the architectural emphasis on the vertical sections of the façade, giving the building a taller, more pronounced and highly structured visual appearance.

This approach is ideal where designers want to create architectural rhythm, façade depth and a more distinctive curtain wall screen while retaining the benefits of a modern TECHNAL façade system.

Carbon-Conscious Façade System

TENTAL Trame integrates at least 75% recycled content and is 95% recyclable, supporting lower-carbon façade specifications and circular design principles.

TECHNAL references Hydro CIRCAL aluminium, containing at least 75% end-of-life aluminium and achieving a CO2 footprint of 1.9 kg CO2e/kg of aluminium.

For clients, contractors and architects, this allows the curtain walling specification to support both design ambition and environmental performance.

Dortech’s Role

TECHNAL extrudes the aluminium system profiles, while Dortech designs, manufactures and installs the curtain walling package on the projects we are involved in.

With more than 20 years of experience working with TECHNAL systems, Dortech is well placed to support architects, contractors and developers with TENTAL Trame curtain walling packages across the UK.
