RAY: laminated wood profile for those who value quality and sustainability

RAY windows: visual clarity and technical precision

In the ever-evolving world of high-end windows and doors, laminated wood remains a premium choice. Building on this refined and high-performance material, Caiframe developed RAY, a minimalist window system with strong architectural value designed to meet the needs of contemporary living and the demands of sustainability.

With RAY, the window becomes slimmer, brighter and more essential. This wood-aluminum system is engineered for clean lines and a minimal visual footprint, allowing natural light to take center stage. The sash measures just 45 mm (reduced to 38 mm in the sliding version), while the flush-mounted frame creates a seamless joint of only 5 mm.

The result is a window that integrates discreetly into the architecture, maximizing transparency and increasing indoor light by up to 25% compared to standard systems. RAY becomes a true connection between interior and exterior, turning every opening into a fluid and continuous visual threshold.

Laminated wood: solid and sustainable by nature

Laminated wood is the technical heart of RAY, a material selected with strict criteria for structural quality, stability and visual consistency. The use of cross-laminated layers ensures exceptional mechanical strength and high resistance to warping and environmental stress.

Each phase of the process is carefully controlled: boards are inspected for moisture content, density and grain uniformity, while adhesives are formaldehyde-free and eco-friendly. The result is a technologically advanced and sustainable window, built to last and compatible with refined finishes.

Performance that makes a difference

In RAY, aesthetics and engineering converge to deliver high levels of comfort. Thermal transmittance can reach values as low as 0.9 W/m²K, while acoustic insulation can go up to 50 dB, also thanks to the option of installing laminated glass up to 43 mm thick.

Wood, used on the interior side of the frame, provides natural insulation, paired with the durability of aluminum on the exterior, which is resistant to weather and wear. This smart combination reduces maintenance, ensuring comfort, climate control and noise protection year-round.

Sustainable by design: careful material choices

RAY’s sustainability is reflected in every component. The wood comes exclusively from responsibly managed, certified forests that ensure environmental balance and promote resource renewal. Moreover, Caiframe uses only mature trees that are replaced by younger ones, which absorb more CO₂, helping to reduce the greenhouse effect.

Even the painting cycle adheres to green principles: only water-based paints and bio-renewable resins are used, minimizing emissions during production and ensuring healthier, eco-friendly living spaces.

RAY is the ideal solution for those looking to minimize their home’s environmental impact without sacrificing style or functionality.

RAY: a window with many expressions

Beyond its technical excellence, RAY is fully customizable. It is available in over 100 finishes, ranging from neutral and matte tones to warm wood grains and modern, textured colors.

Every component can be configured: handles, profiles, trims and design details can all be selected to match the unique character of each project, turning the window into a true architectural furnishing element.

A forward-looking vision of living

With RAY, Caiframe envisions the window as a meeting point between craftsmanship, innovation and environmental responsibility. It’s the ideal solution for architects and designers looking for a high-performance window system that aligns with new standards of living: quiet, understated and future-conscious.

Whether for new builds, renovations or high-efficiency projects, RAY provides a smart and elegant response to the desire for refined, comfortable and sustainable spaces.
