Innovative Cast-In Window Technology Ritek, smarter, faster, easier Ritek continues to push the boundaries with it’s innovative cast-in window technology. Joining forces with aluminium window industry, specialised adaptors have been developed to complement the Ritek Wall System by becoming an addition to the panel standing.
Windows and doors arrive on site fully glazed as completed units, they are extremely strong, square and capable of being installed without the need for waterproofing the opening, sealing or site measuring. The panels are cast into the wall and become an integral part of the construction.
A section of the wall / window combination.
As Ritek panels are custom manufactured off the plan for each project to a set size, the window manufacturer is able to begin manufacturing well before construction commences. This ensures the moment the walls are stood, the windows and doors are on site, and ready to be fitted. Essentially, the windows and doors are treated as another wall panel, they are locked into place with the specialised adaptor which is previously fitted at window fabrication stage prior to delivery to site.
Ritek - the alternative, innovative & cost effective building method.
