Send Inquiry NowRegistered in 2017, Xi'an Orion Architectural Glass & Window Co., Ltd. operates a state-of-the-art 24,000 square meter manufacturing hub. Leveraging 9 years of deep industry expertise and 6 years of international trade operations, we have established our brand as a primary strategic manufacturer for major architectural firms, commercial developers, and regional building supply distributors across the UK and Western Europe.
Our continuous innovation is driven by a core R&D team of 36 specialist engineers, who brought 35 new energy-saving product series to market over the past year alone. By integrating advanced European design philosophies with high-precision Chinese manufacturing scaling, we supply London's property market with world-class, ultra-durable sliding window assemblies.
Quality control is executed at every milestone of our manufacturing line. 30 dedicated Quality Control specialists manage ISO-certified batch sampling, advanced optical glass flaw detection, precision digital caliper verification, and salt spray corrosion testing to guarantee 100% compliance with British and International structural standards.
Why direct factory engineering alignment is crucial for main contractors and procurement heads operating in Greater London.
With the 2022 amendments to UK Building Regulations Part L, residential developments must achieve strict Target Primary Energy Rates. Our thermally broken aluminum sliding windows utilize PA66GF25 polyamide thermal barriers and low-emissivity double or triple glazed units with warm-edge spacers, delivering U-values as low as 0.8 to 1.2 W/m²K to ensure compliance with the Future Homes Standard.
Security is paramount in London’s urban environment. Orion sliding window systems can be customized with multi-point stainless steel shoot-bolt locking, anti-lift pins, laminated security glass (EN 356 P4A rated), and structural silicone glazing. Every frame profile is designed to resist forced entry testing under PAS 24:2022 protocols.
London’s urban noise demands high acoustic attenuation (Rw values up to 45 dB) for developments near railways, main arterial roads, or airports. Additionally, our sliding systems integrate trickle vents engineered to satisfy Part F background ventilation criteria without compromising soundproofing performance.
