Gutmann windows, doors, and curtain walls
Thermally broken European windows, doors, and curtain walling, with high thermal efficiency, weather tightnes,s and seismic resilience.
Symonite is the only New Zealand supplier of Gutmann systems, a premium range of curtain walls, windows and doors. Panels are tested for weathering and structural performance to meet New Zealand’s climate and seismic demands, then verified again project by project. The result is quieter, drier, more comfortable buildings that hold performance over time.
Gutmann is a leading name in the European building systems market, and known for its precision-engineered, high-performing products. Headquartered in Weissenburg, Germany, Gutmann designs a modular and customisable range to support quality architectural outcomes.
Their products are used on residential and commercial projects globally, and can be found in Munich Airport, Terminal 2 by Koch + Partner Architekten; Providence Tower, London by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM); and the Paul Klee Centre, Bern by Renzo Piano Building Workshop.
The possibilities are endless – Gutmann International Projects
Quality, efficiency, and comfort
Gutmann’s aluminium systems pair true thermal breaks with rigorously tested air and water tightness to protect the envelope, cut energy loss and lift day-to-day comfort. Designed for Passive House-level performance, the frames have low U-values, and the systems have been independently tested to EN/ASTM/AAMA performance standards for air permeability, water penetration and structural load. Acoustic performance up to 47 dB further improves interior comfort, and NFRC-certified configurations help projects meet energy codes without compromising design.
Design freedom with integrated hardware
Modern, refined profiles with concealed hardware create a clean, consistent aesthetic. The system is flexible to work with, including options to integrate timber to the interior or exterior for warmth and contrast. A broad finishes palette, from anodised to high-speed fluorocarbon coatings, and performance-driven glazing options mean design flexibility.
Efficient procurement and fabrication
We combine German-designed systems with efficient offshore assembly partners. Components are manufactured to specification, with our team overseeing design, shop drawings and factory quality checks before the assembly is shipped to New Zealand. This model trims fabrication costs on a leading European system.
Proven value without compromise
Gutmann brings world-class engineering at a competitive price point. For developers and main contractors, that balance delivers a stronger envelope for the budget, including high-quality shop drawings, procurement and installation by Symonite’s local office and site teams. For residents, it means durable, energy-efficient windows and doors that improve everyday comfort and well-being and provide an excellent whole-of-life performance.
