High-Performance Façades Gain Ground in Indian Buildings

High-performance façades are gaining greater importance in Indian architecture as developers and architects increasingly focus on energy efficiency, thermal comfort and building performance, according to Shankar Fenestrations & Glasses.

The company said modern façade systems are increasingly being considered as part of a building's overall performance strategy rather than being used primarily as aesthetic elements.

High-performance glass, curtain wall systems and structural glazing can contribute to thermal regulation, solar control, daylight management and indoor comfort. Their growing adoption reflects increased interest in balancing architectural design with energy and environmental performance.

Dinesh Chandra Pandey, Managing Director of Shankar Fenestrations & Glasses, said façades now play a significant role in determining thermal comfort, natural light, energy use and occupant experience.

The company provides integrated glass and fenestration solutions for residential, commercial and institutional projects.

Shankar Fenestrations said continuing developments in glass, aluminium and façade engineering are expected to increase the role of building envelopes in India's construction sector, particularly as architects and developers place greater emphasis on performance-driven design.

The company expects glazing and exterior systems to increasingly be evaluated as part of a building's wider environmental and operational strategy.
