Unicel Architectural and AWS Mark 20 Years of Collaboration for Industry-leading Skylight Systems

MONTREAL, Canada and Des Moines, IA – November 26, 2013 – Unicel Architectural and Architectural Wall Systems (AWS) today published a case study that highlights more than 20 years of partnering to deliver skylight and other glazing solutions for notable building and design initiatives in the Midwestern USA. AWS specializes in the custom design and production of advanced building envelope solutions, including skylights and curtain walls.
 
“We first connected with Unicel in in the early nineties for their internal guttering system that was designed with pressure-equalized rain screen technology,” said Mike Cunningham, CEO of Architectural Wall Systems. “Since then, we have worked together to create a legacy of noteworthy daylighting solutions for prominent architectural landmarks such as two Wells Fargo Financial buildings, the Figge Art Center and the USDA Consolidated Laboratory.”
 
Unicel specializes in building sophisticated skylights with unique framing systems. Unicel’s skylights can have added special features such as integrated Vision Control® louvered glazing panels that enable the control of light and heat into the building.
 
“Skylight design requires very specific expertise in order to perform optimally and stand the test of time,” said Jean-Francois Couturier, CEO of Unicel Architectural. “AWS sets the highest performance standards for its skylight systems. We are proud to have partnered with them for 20 years of project excellence. Our combined solutions are designed to effectively manage water, condensation and thermal variations, while ensuring esthetic appeal.”
