Enclos

Enclos is one of the largest specialty contractors in the United States. The firm provides design, engineering, fabrication and installation services for custom curtainwall systems and structural glass facades. Our roots trace back to the advent of curtainwall cladding systems in the mid-twentieth century. The firm has since provided innovative solutions for numerous prominent structures in the built environment, including many landmarks. No other building system affects both appearance and performance as does the building skin. The sustainability of building practices in the future will depend heavily on the building skin, and Enclos is playing a leadership role in defining the future of high-performance building systems. In 2009, Enclos launched a bold initiative — The Advanced Technology Studio® — to redefine the technical landscape of the building facade. This facade think tank is a deep, technical resource for our clients, with the mission to define the future of the building skin. The Studio’s agenda is split between facade-related research and development activities, pre-sale technical support, and design-assist services on the most technologically advanced facade programs. This small, multidisciplinary team of facade specialists is busy defining facade futures, one challenging project at a time.
