3 1960s 1970s 1980s 1990s today Giesse was founded near Bologna, in Italy, in 1965 and from being a small enterprise it has grown, over the years, into a major international Group in the sector of aluminium window hardware. What initially was an intuition turned into an entrepreneurial vision that has led Giesse to become a key brand, a world leader in the aluminium window sector that has created a range of products that have become the standard for the entire market. Giesse opens new frontiers and changes the way of conceiving and producing hardware. The goal of Giesse is to work professionally in accordance with its core values of Quality, Innovation and Design. Our philosophy is based on complete customer satisfaction through the design, manufacture and marketing of cutting-edge solutions in line with market demands, in Italy and abroad. The Group today has branches and a sales network able to serve every country in the world, with 550 employees and a turnover exceeding 80 million euro. It has a catalogue of over products and more than 100 registered patents. Once upon a time there was a dream. Now, 50 years later, there is a great reality that is called GSG International S.p.a. We invite you to join our wonderful adventure, which has deep roots, lives in the present and will continue into the future. A fine story with many pages still to be written. Write them with us.

4 Giesse, the leading hardware manufacturer, has expanded its product range with a specific program for outward opening windows. The Group's process of internationalization has led the company to compete in the design of solutions for this type of opening, which is one of the most popular, especially in those markets where architectural accomplishments are often synonymous with great building and where outward opening is widely used. Innovation and continuous technological research, historical values at Giesse, then created a system of arms and hardware that soon became a point of reference on the market, also characterized by unique attention to functionality, performance and design. The desire to offer a range of quality products combined with an attractive, contemporary look created the GHIBO mechanism that enables using any type of window handle: a freedom never seen before in the choice of shapes and finishes. Giesse also offers an exclusive series of arms dedicated to Standard Euro Groove systems (11.5 mm stack and mm channel) to permit multi-locking that gives windows accessorized with Giesse hardware peak performance: self-positioning arms in the channel, simple and quick to assemble for precise installation. Quality then in terms not only of technical performance, but also of use. All GIESSE outward opening arms are made of Austenitic Steel (AISI 304 stainless steel) and tested according to the main European technical standards in force. QUALITY, INNOVATION and DESIGN. Once again the foundations of Giesse philosophy are enclosed in a high-performance, exclusive product.

26 OS OPERATOR 2.0 PATENTED IN 2009 OS Operator is the revolutionary outward opening mechanism that combines extreme functionality, renewed styling and high levels of performance. OS Operator combines all these features with its applicability even to small windows, to meet the needs of different markets. OS Operator is the only operator that, thanks to the positioning of the cremone on the frame, enables fitting internal and integral mosquito netting panels. OS Operator 2.0 is the mechanism that features multilocking as standard. With a simple 180 movement of the cremone you can open and close the sash, disengaging multiple locking points simultaneously. OS Operator is the perfect solution for both top hung and side hung windows. With OS Operator three functions are combined in a single fastening solution: by simply turning the handle of the cremone you open and close the sash, even with multiple locking points, with opening limited to the length of the arm of the OS mechanism. 26

27 OS OPERATOR 2.0 At 0 of cremone rotation the window is closed and the locking points are engaged. On turning the cremone to 60, the locking points are released and during the next 120 of movement the mechanism pushes the sash to maximum opening (according to the length of the OS arm). CLOSES RELEASES OPENS SYSTEM DESIGN FOR THE OS OPERATOR OS Operator was designed simultaneously with the window profile housing it, in order to be able to get the best performance and functionality from the set of the hardware plus profile. OS Operator requires a specific type of profile cross-section. Information and assistance about possible applications at Giesse Technical Assistance. DIMENSIONS The size limit of the windows to be able to install OS Operator depends on many factors, such as the type of arms used, the type of glass, the specific wind resistance requirements. The minimum size is related to the number and location of the locking points. MECHANISMS TEST RESULTS OS Operator has successfully passed cycles with both the top hung and side hung type, to AAMA test specifications other RAL OS Operator is combined with a specific cremone, available with different handle lengths, optionally with key and with removable handle. 27
