Aluminium Curtain Wall Contractor & Facade Manufacturer, Based in Latvia
In-house manufacturing, assembly and on-site installation of aluminium curtain wall and structural glass facades for commercial and industrial buildings across Europe
BGI is the aluminium curtain wall contractor Europe main contractors and developers choose for in-house manufacturing, assembly and on-site installation of commercial facades. As a facade subcontractor, we work directly with main contractors, developers and architects on commercial and industrial projects, coordinating the full scope – from shop drawings to the finished, weathertight facade – from a single project team.
Case study: aluminium facade for an industrial production facility in Līvāni, Latvia
- Capped (pressure-plate) curtain wall – mullion-and-transom aluminium curtain wall with structural pressure plates and decorative aluminium cover caps over the glazing joints, giving a clean, uniform facade grid while remaining fully serviceable after installation.
- Frameless structural glass corner – a butt-glazed corner detail with no visible vertical profile, for an uninterrupted glass-to-glass sightline at the building’s leading edge.
- Integrated entrance doors – aluminium-framed double doors built directly into the curtain wall grid, matching the facade module and finish.
- Large-format glazing units – full-height glass panels manufactured and installed to tight tolerances across a long building elevation.
As with all BGI facade projects, the work covers the complete scope: coordination of shop drawings with the main contractor, in-house fabrication of the aluminium sub-frame and cover caps, factory pre-assembly where possible, and installation, sealing and weatherproofing on site by our own installation crews.
Curtain wall and facade capabilities
As an aluminium curtain wall contractor Europe architects and contractors rely on for the full delivery chain, BGI covers manufacturing, assembly and installation directly for main contractors and developers:
- Manufacturing – aluminium profiles, pressure plates, cover caps and sub-frames fabricated in-house to the project’s technical drawings and performance requirements.
- Assembly – factory pre-assembly of facade units and door elements where the project allows, reducing on-site working time.
- Installation – our own crews handle on-site fitting, structural glazing, sealing and weatherproofing, for both new-build and refurbishment projects.
- Structural glazing details – frameless corners and butt-glazed junctions fabricated and installed to the facade engineer’s specification.
- Project coordination – a single BGI project team liaises with your architects and main contractor from shop-drawing stage through to handover.
- Europe-wide delivery – based in Latvia, BGI delivers and installs for clients across the Baltic states and other European countries.
Facade systems are specified individually for each project – profile depth, glazing build-up, thermal and structural performance depend on the building’s design requirements, wind loads and local building code. All curtain wall systems we install are designed and tested to meet EN 13830, the harmonised European product standard for curtain walling. Send us your project drawings or specification and we will confirm the right system and provide a quote.
Frequently asked questions from architects and contractors
Does BGI work as a curtain wall subcontractor for main contractors outside Latvia?
Yes. BGI works as a facade subcontractor and manufacturer for main contractors and developers across the Baltic states and other European countries, coordinating fabrication and installation from a single project team.
Can BGI deliver a turnkey facade installation, from fabrication to site handover?
Yes. BGI manufactures the aluminium sub-frame, pressure plates and cover caps in-house, pre-assembles facade units where the project allows, and installs, glazes and weatherproofs the facade on site with our own crews.
Can BGI fabricate structural glass corners and other frameless glazing details?
Yes. Alongside standard capped (pressure-plate) curtain wall, BGI fabricates and installs frameless structural glass details such as butt-glazed corners, to the specification provided by the project’s facade engineer or architect.
How does BGI take part in a facade tender for a project outside Latvia?
Send BGI the facade specification, drawings or tender documents for the project. We review technical fit, confirm scope for manufacturing, assembly and installation, and return a quote.
