The Anthony V Drift Window combines minimalism with smart functionality through a unique side-slide + inward-tilt dual-opening mechanism, enabling both panoramic views and micro-ventilation in one seamless structure. With a 90° upward rotation of the handle, the window opens in a tilt mode for safe, gentle airflow. A 180° horizontal turn unlocks the slide mode, offering an expanded field of view and enhanced accessibility.



Engineered with a dual-groove sash structure and multi-point locking system, this design achieves outstanding wind resistance and watertight performance, addressing the common flaw of single-groove windows where locking points are compromised in large formats. The extrusion-sealed frame mimics the airtightness of casement windows while allowing smooth sliding.



A standout innovation is the tilt-to-slide shift enabled by a 180° horizontal handle turn—solving the common closing difficulty of oversized tilt-only windows. This mechanism ensures effortless operation even for large-format applications.



Sustainability is embedded at every level:



Aluminum profiles are fully recyclable, cutting energy use by 95% in remelting processes.



Thermal breaks made of PA66 plastic are recoverable through mechanical separation for reuse in packaging or pipes.



Tempered and insulating glass can be processed into recycled building materials.



Metal fittings such as locks and handles are reusable through smelting.



Rubber and silicone seals are separable and recyclable into industrial materials like mats and dampeners.



Equipped with a standard mosquito screen, this window quietly enhances indoor tranquility while embracing nature. With its innovative mechanics, aesthetic flexibility, and circular-material design, the Anthony V Drift Window exemplifies the balance between functionality, beauty, and sustainability.
