C.H.I.C. 150
Concealed hinges for large and heavy aluminium windows
Up to 150 kg sash invisible hardware
The Giesse C.H.I.C. family of concealed hinges continues to expand with C.H.I.C. 150, the solution designed for aluminium windows with sash weights of up to 150 kg. Developed to meet the same performance and aesthetic standards as the rest of the C.H.I.C. range, C.H.I.C. 150 combines high load capacity with a fully concealed design, helping manufacturers create larger window systems without compromising appearance, functionality, or ease of installation.
Like all C.H.I.C. window hinges, the new version offers clean lines, hidden components, and reliable performance, making it ideal for contemporary residential and commercial projects where both design and durability are essential.
Maximum Corrosion Resistance with ShieldMax5
C.H.I.C. 150 features the exclusive ShieldMax5 surface treatment, which delivers Class 5 corrosion resistance according to EN 1670, the highest level defined by the European standard. The treatment guarantees protection even in challenging environments such as coastal areas, tropical climates, and highly polluted urban locations. Thanks to its resistance of more than 480 hours in salt spray testing, ShieldMax5 helps ensure long-term reliability and reduced maintenance requirements.
With the introduction of ShieldMax5 on C.H.I.C. 150, the entire C.H.I.C. range for aluminium windows now achieves Class 5 EN 1670 certification, providing a consistent durability standard across the product family.
EPD-Certified for Sustainable Building Projects
C.H.I.C. 150 is also covered by Giesse’s Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) programme. Verified according to international standards, the EPD provides transparent information on the environmental impact of the product throughout its life cycle, supporting architects, specifiers, and building professionals involved in sustainable construction projects.
The product’s durability aligns with the principles of the European Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), which recognizes long service life as a key factor in reducing resource consumption, maintenance needs, and overall environmental impact.
Simple
Fewer components and assembly stages mean faster and simpler production.
Solid
A maximum load capacity compatible with most application needs for all housing, residential and public
building solutions.
Adjustable
Sash height, side and compression adjustment is possible, either in the workshop or after the window has
been installed.
Height adjustment = -1 / +2.5 mm
Side adjustment = -1.5 / +1.5 mm
Compression adjustment = -0.6 / +1.4 mm
180° Opening
C.H.I.C. allows a 180° opening for both side-hung and tilt-and-turn sashes.
Highest corrosion resistance
Grade 5, the maximum level in accordance with European standard EN 1670 (resistance of more than 480
hours in salt spray), for use even in environments with severe climatic conditions.
Microventilacion
Simply rotating the mechanism 135° opens the sash a few millimetres. Air circulates minimizing
condensation and ensuring a healthy environment without compromising the temperature in the room.
Storage optimisation
With the hardware concealed inside the profile, C.H.I.C. simplifies warehouse organisation by completely
eliminating the need to manage finishes. Standard and Logica tilt and turn openings are feasible using the
same arm.
