AzoCore™

AzoCore™ is a high-density polyurethane foam thermal barrier with the lowest conductivity available today.

Ultimate thermal performance.

Fortified by MLP™ (Mechanical Lock Profile), a system exclusive to Azon for ensuring integrity, strength, and adhesion to the most difficult finishes, Azo-Core ™ enables commercial windows and doors to meet stringent global energy standards including: Energy Star, Passive House, and International Energy Conservation Code (IECC).

A graph showing the material thermal conductivity of AzoCore at 0.21, PVC at 1.18, and Polyamide at 2.08. There is a green arrow labeled "U-Factor," which demonstrates that the lower the material thermal conductivity number, the lower the U-Factor.

How it works.

An aluminum window profile is designed and extruded with a strategically placed channel to encapsulate the insulating polyurethane foam. The Azon Azo-Brader and Lancer mechanically resurface the extrusion cavity to ensure proper adhesion and bonding of the AzoCore polymer to all finishes. The Azon Fillameter meters, mixes and dispenses liquid AzoCore foam into the thermal barrier pocket. Within minutes, the thermal core solidifies into a strong, structural composite. Lastly, the Azon Bridgemill removes a metal bridge from the bottom of the channel to produce a true, non-metal-to-metal structural thermal barrier.

Three cross sections of an aluminum extrusion going through the Pour and Debridge process. The first extrusion has a textured cavity and is labeled "Create a Mechanical Lock." The second, labeled "Pour" is being filled with liquid polyurethane. The third, "Debridge" shows the removal of a strip of the aluminum under the filled extrusion.

Lower thermal conductivity for lower U-factors.
