Alquali Esquadrias De Alumínio Ltda

What Alquali Esquadrias De Alumínio Ltda does

Alquali Esquadrias De Alumínio Ltda is a privately held Brazilian manufacturer and installer of custom aluminum window and facade systems, founded in 1993 and headquartered in Campinas, São Paulo. The company designs, fabricates, and installs a comprehensive envelope product portfolio that includes three facade systems — Unitized (factory-prefabricated modular panels), Stick (piece-by-piece site assembly), and Grid (modular external closure) — alongside ACM (aluminum composite material) cladding, brises (solar-control architectural elements), Caixilhos (aluminum frames), minimalist frame systems, and specialty glass offerings (curved glass, Low-E glass, and European multi-chamber profiles). Projects comply with Brazilian technical standards NBR 10821 and NBR 15575 for facade performance. Underlying technology emphasizes factory-controlled pre-fabrication with integrated sealing for waterproofing, multi-chamber thermal breaks, and high-performance glazing integration to address thermal-acoustic comfort, weatherproofing, and modern aesthetic requirements.

The company operates a project-based B2B revenue model, generating one-time contracts through direct enterprise field sales to construction companies, real estate developers, architects, and property owners in the corporate/commercial, industrial, residential, and specialized (hospitality, government, education) segments. Pricing is quote-based and project-specific, with no public tiers and no recurring licensing or subscription component. Go-to-market is anchored on engineering partnership — Alquali's in-house engineers and designers engage from design through execution — supplemented by digital channels including a corporate website, industry-blog content, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and structured quote/contact forms. With more than 32 years of operating history and over 200 large projects completed, the company maintains a regional concentration in the Southeast Region of Brazil (Campinas-SP and São Paulo state), led by Executive Directors Gilberto Paz and Marcos Barbosa under founder/management ownership, with no external investors or parent company affiliations identified.

Products and services

• Fachada Unitizada (Unitized Facade System) A unitized facade system in which aluminum and glass panels are prefabricated and sealed in a factory environment and arrive at the construction site ready for installation. Offers 3-4 times faster installation than stick systems, high precision, integrated sealing, and superior waterproofing performance. Targeted at large commercial, corporate, and high-rise projects.
• Fachada Stick (Stick Facade System) A stick facade system where metal profiles (verticals and horizontals) are assembled piece by piece at the construction site. Provides flexibility for adjustments during execution and lower initial cost compared to unitized systems, suited to complex projects.
• Fachada Grid (Grid Facade System) An external facade system composed of modular aluminum window units organized in a grid pattern. Features vertical and horizontal profiles creating standardized quadrants for installing glass, panels, or other closing elements, providing modern aesthetics and efficient installation.
• ACM (Aluminum Composite Material) Composite panel consisting of two external aluminum sheets bonded to an inner core of polyethylene or mineral material, used for facades, claddings, marquises, column coverings, and architectural details. Lightweight yet resistant with PVDF paint protection against UV radiation and corrosion.
• Brises Architectural elements used for solar light control, ventilation, and thermal comfort in buildings. Can be fixed or mobile, horizontal or vertical, typically made from aluminum for high weather resistance and low maintenance.
• Caixilhos de Alumínio (Aluminum Frames) Aluminum frames that seal openings and contribute to overall building performance. Used in doors, windows, facades, partitions, brises, and special glazing systems, offering waterproofing, natural lighting, ventilation, and thermal-acoustic performance.
• Esquadrias Minimalistas (Minimalist Frames) Minimalist aluminum frames with ultra-slim profiles, large glass panes, and maximum transparency. Designed to maximize natural light and integrate indoor and outdoor spaces, combining contemporary design with technical performance.
• Vidros Low-E (Low-E Glass) Low-emissivity glass that controls infrared radiation, reducing heat exchange between interior and exterior environments without compromising natural light entry. When applied with high-performance aluminum frames, it enhances results in residential, commercial, and industrial facades.
• Vidros Curvos (Curved Glass) Curved glass technology enabling complex geometries such as conical, spherical, and 3D surfaces. Modern production allows tighter radii, larger dimensions, and integration with laminated, tempered, or insulated glass for architectural freedom and sophisticated aesthetic results.
• Sistema de Câmaras (Câmara Européia / Multi-chamber System) Multi-chamber aluminum profile system using multiple internal cavities to create barriers that significantly reduce thermal exchange and external noise propagation, inspired by international standards for enhanced comfort and energy efficiency.
• Retrofit (Modernization Service) Modernization service that replaces or updates existing window, door, glazed facade, and aluminum frame systems to improve performance, aesthetics, and building efficiency. Addresses buildings with aged frames, low sealing, operational wear, or outdated materials.
