CIVRO has officially opened its showcase at Edifica 2026, Latin America’s premier international building and construction trade exhibition. Hosted at the Espacio Riesco Event Center in Santiago from October 20 to October 22, the event brings together regional developers, architects, facade consultants, and general contractors looking for modern structural solutions.
Located in Hall 2, Stand 2K-14, CIVRO’s display booth is fully built and operational, welcoming trade visitors to experience its engineered system products firsthand. For this edition of Edifica, CIVRO is featuring two core systems tailored specifically for high-end residential and commercial architecture: the Retro XW85 French Style Window and the Enfini Pro Slender Frames PD65SS Sliding Door.
Bridging Heritage Aesthetics with Modern Engineering: The Retro XW85
As contemporary architecture across Latin America increasingly balances traditional aesthetic cues with stringent energy standards, modern fenestration must offer more than basic function. The Retro XW85 French Style Window on display directly addresses this requirement by merging classic industrial and steel-look aesthetics with state-of-the-art aluminum thermal-break technology.
Featuring sculpted frame profiles and subtle leaded grid options, the Retro XW85 captures the vintage elegance of French-style steel glazing while solving the thermal inefficiency and maintenance issues historically associated with traditional steel windows. Behind its classic appearance lies sophisticated modern engineering, including high-spec thermal barrier strips, multi-point locking hardware, and high-performance weather gaskets.
Visitors to the CIVRO booth can observe the window’s solid structural craftsmanship, precise handle movement, and clean finish options. Designed for luxury private villas, boutique commercial properties, and adaptive reuse projects, the Retro XW85 offers architects a versatile design tool that satisfies spatial character without compromising on thermal insulation, sound reduction, or long-term weather tightness.
Redefining Spatial Transparency: Enfini Pro Slender Frames PD65SS
Alongside the classic detailing of the Retro series, CIVRO is presenting its ultra-minimalist sliding innovation - the Enfini Pro Slender Frames PD65SS Sliding Door.
Minimalism continues to drive modern architectural design across South America, where seamless indoor-outdoor living, maximized natural daylight, and floor-to-ceiling glass openings are highly sought after. The Enfini Pro PD65SS addresses these demands with an extraordinarily slim interlock sightline of just 28mm. This reduced profile frame allows structural glass panels to dominate the elevation, delivering panoramic views and maximizing daylight transmission.
Despite its slim visual presence, the PD65SS system maintains high structural load capabilities. Engineered to handle oversized glass units smoothly, the system features heavy-duty stainless steel track assemblies and concealed running gear, ensuring silent, effortless sliding operation even under substantial wind loads. Furthermore, the system incorporates concealed drainage configurations and high-performance thermal insulation layers, making it well-suited for diverse Latin American climate conditions—from coastal environments to mountain regions.
Strengthening CIVRO’s Presence in Latin America
CIVRO’s participation in Edifica 2026 highlights the company’s ongoing commitment to expanding its global operational footprint and providing direct technical support to growing markets in Latin America.
Chile’s construction sector continues to place a higher emphasis on sustainable building envelopes, lower energy consumption, and high-end design customization. CIVRO’s system portfolio aligns with these local market demands by providing modular window, door, and sliding configurations engineered to meet stringent global standards.
"Edifica provides an excellent platform for us to connect directly with the architects, builders, and developers who are shaping the skyline of Chile and surrounding regions," said a spokesperson for CIVRO’s international marketing team. "Exhibiting our Retro XW85 and Enfini Pro PD65SS systems live on the floor allows attendees to feel the mechanical precision, view the sightlines, and understand how CIVRO systems integrate into complex architectural projects. We look forward to establishing strong partnerships over the course of the exhibition."
