Manufacturing Capability
One Facility. Every Critical Step.
FOWALL is a curtain wall manufacturer that owns every critical step of production. We don't buy profiles from anonymous suppliers or hand assembly to subcontractors - we cast, extrude, finish, machine, assemble, test, and pack in one facility.

The Zhaoqing Base
Built to Own the Whole Chain
Single point of accountability
No hand-offs between subcontractors. When you audit FOWALL, you audit the factory that actually makes your product.
One production schedule
All critical steps on one site means no cross-factory waiting, fewer logistics risks.
Full traceability
Material records run from the aluminum ingot to the finished unit, on one quality system.
Raw Material
Where the Material Begins
From alloy billet to finished profile — every stage of aluminum extrusion and surface treatment happens in-house, under our own quality control.
Step 1
Die Design & Manufacturing
The die library behind every profile section
Every profile starts with a die. Our in-house die library and machining let us cut complex, non-standard facade sections without an outside tooling vendor or its lead time.
Step 2
Aluminum Extrusion
Core production strength
40+ extrusion lines, up to 3,600 tonnes — enough range for slim mullions to heavy structural sections. Every meter comes off dimensionally consistent, keeping the chain to tolerance.
Step 3
Mill Finish Profile QC
Verified before it moves to finishing
Every profile is measured against the drawing before finishing — width, wall thickness, straightness, and flatness. Only profiles that pass move on to surface treatment.
Step 4
Anodizing & Electrophoresis
Premium architectural profile capability
Anodizing gives a hard, corrosion-resistant finish; electrophoretic coating adds a sealed, uniform color layer on top. Film thickness, color, and salt-spray resistance are controlled throughout for long-term weathering.
Step 5
Powder Coating
Our most requested finish
Fast, durable, low-VOC, and available in the widest color range of our three finishing systems. Powder coating is the standard choice for most projects.
Step 6
PVDF Fluorocarbon Coating
High-end engineering capability
Applied using AkzoNobel (Interpon)-authorized coatings under controlled conditions, backed by 10/20/30-year performance guarantees. FOWALL was the first Chinese manufacturer to supply PVDF curtain wall profiles to Japan.
Step 7
Surface Finish QC
Checked before it leaves the line
Coating thickness, color difference, gloss, and adhesion are verified on every finish — anodized, powder coated, or PVDF — before it leaves the line.
Step 8
Environmental Treatment
A dedicated facility, not an afterthought
Our group invested over RMB 20 million in an on-site wastewater treatment center, processing up to 1,000 tonnes of industrial wastewater daily before discharge or reuse.
Finished Product
Where FOWALL Takes Shape
From precision machining to final water testing — each unitized curtain wall passes through six dedicated production stages before it leaves the factory.CNC Precision Machining
Precision starts before assembly
Before reaching the CNC line, profiles are checked against the project's shop drawing — confirming the right material for the right project before any cutting begins. From there, precision cutting, drilling, milling, and slotting shape the profile to the connector geometry specified in the drawing, so each piece arrives at assembly ready to fit without on-site rework.
Frame / Unit Assembly
Where individual profiles become a single curtain wall unit
Cut and machined profiles are assembled into complete unitized panels — frame members, transoms, and mullions fitted and fastened to the tolerances set in the shop drawing. Each unit is built and checked individually before it moves forward, so assembly errors are caught at the panel stage, not discovered on-site.
Structural Silicone Glazing
Sealing that has to outperform a window
Unlike a window unit, a curtain wall panel is fully exposed to the building envelope — every joint is a potential point of water and air infiltration, with no secondary frame to fall back on. Structural glazing is done in a dedicated, climate-controlled glazing room. The process follows a fixed sequence — surface cleaning, primer application, spacer placement, glass installation, and structural silicone application — with cure time enforced before the unit moves to the next stage.
Silicone Quality Control
Every joint is tested before it leaves the glazing room
Structural silicone isn't accepted on cure time alone. Peel adhesion and cohesion testing are performed on production samples to confirm the bond will hold under long-term load and weathering — batch by batch, not just at project sign-off. A panel doesn't move to final assembly until its glazing has passed.
Finished Unit QC
A standardized checklist, not a visual once-over
Every completed unit is inspected against a fixed set of criteria — dimensions, diagonal squareness, joint condition, sealant coverage, gasket fit, glass and hardware condition, and panel ID. A unit passes only when every item on the list is confirmed, not when it looks right at a glance.
Water Test
Verified before it leaves the factory
Finished units are tested under simulated wind and water pressure to confirm sealant and gasket performance before shipment. Catching a leak path in the factory — where it can still be corrected — is the difference between a warranty claim and a five-minute fix.
