Curtain Wall & Facade Supplier in Lagos, Nigeria
Hanart supplies curtain wall systems to Nigerian developers — Lagos, Abuja and the new waterfront districts — engineered for tropical heat, high humidity, intense rain and coastal corrosion exposure.
Engineering for the Gulf of Guinea climate
Nigeria's commercial construction is centered on Lagos, with Abuja, Port Harcourt and the Eko Atlantic waterfront adding premium tower demand. The environment is tropical coastal — heat and humidity year-round, heavy rain seasons, intense UV and, along the coast, a corrosive marine atmosphere.
Hanart engineers for these conditions: ventilation-friendly pressure-equalized facades, corrosion protection throughout the envelope, solar-control glazing for the cooling-dominated climate, and air and water seals that perform in driving rain.
A direct contract with Hanart gives Nigerian developers the factory strength of a top-50 Chinese contractor — engineering, fabrication, freight and erection supervision from one counterpart.
Low-SHGC glass and efficient shading cut air-conditioning load in Lagos' hot, humid climate.
Marine-grade coatings and isolation details for Gulf of Guinea coastal exposure.
High watertightness classes tested for tropical downpours.
Documented quality tracked from Shanghai fabrication through Lagos installation, with transparent pricing.
NBC-aligned engineering and import routing
Facade engineering follows the Nigerian building code and applicable wind and structural provisions, with Hanart's engineers aligning the design and verifying through local consultants as project approvals require.
Logistics route via Apapa or Tin Can Island port in Lagos, with trucking to site. Hanart manages the export package and can deliver DDP (duty and clearance included) or CIF/FOB.

Systems we deliver in Nigeria
Scopes include unitized and stick curtain wall, window wall, aluminum cladding and structural glazing for office buildings, hotels, hospitals and mixed-use towers. Atriums and feature lobbies can use point-supported or cable-net glazing for Lagos office and mixed-use towers.
Panels are fabricated and 100% seal-tested at the Shanghai plant, shipped packed and numbered via Lagos, and erected by supervised crews or approved local installers. Programs in Lagos typically run 10–16 months from design freeze to completion.
As-built documentation, spares, manuals and a structured warranty complete the Lagos package.
Sourcing a curtain wall supplier in Nigeria
Most Nigeria facade purchases start the same way: a technical brief, shortlisted suppliers, engineering review, mock-up, fabrication and site installation. Where the chain shortens — and the cost moves most — is keeping engineering and fabrication under one contract, which is how Lagos projects lock the approved price. Both happen at our Shanghai plant, so the price approved before fabrication is the price that holds for your Lagos project.
Engineering for Nigeria is prepared against Nigerian building code provisions. Structural, thermal, acoustic and fire calculations are completed by our central engineering team against the NBC framework, and licensed local consultants sign off the package before fabrication is released.
Panels leave Shanghai with marine-grade packing, customs-classified documentation and numbered installation drawings, routed for Apapa. For Nigeria we typically ship through Apapa and Tin Can Island on DDP or CIF terms. Erection is carried out by locally permitted crews under Hanart supervision, with a site QA plan covering setting-out, sealant works and watertightness testing for Lagos conditions.
Typical briefs we price for Nigeria: airport and transport terminals, office and data-centre towers, hotels and mixed-use developments, retail and education estates.
Facade budgets, programmes and risk for Lagos high-rises
A realistic facade budget for a Nigeria high-rise splits roughly 6–10% engineering and testing, 55–70% materials and fabrication, 10–15% logistics, and 15–25% on-site labour. The mix shifts with unitized versus stick-built systems and the performance-testing regime the contract demands — decisions we price in early for Lagos towers.
Importing a facade concentrates three financial risks for a Nigerian developer: currency movement, duty changes and site-readiness sequencing. Hanart addresses them through fixed engineering-to-install pricing where scope allows, DDP terms through Apapa or Tin Can Island, and a fabrication schedule matched to installation order instead of one bulk shipment.
On site the risks are tolerances, interfaces and weather windows in a tropical monsoon climate. The QA plan sweeps joint setting-out, drainage, sealant and watertightness verification, and hands over a documented record before your team takes possession at the Lagos site.
What one Hanart contract covers — engineering to handover
One contract means one point of responsibility for engineering, cost, quality and schedule. If the site throws a new condition, one counterpart in Shanghai and a local project lead in Lagos resolve it — no third party in the loop.

- Marine-grade packing, customs documentation and sequenced delivery via Apapa or Tin Can Island
- Erection by local crews under Hanart supervision, with QA records
- As-built drawings, operation manual, spare kits and a structured warranty
Nigeria facade questions, answered
Yes — supply, supply-and-erect and design-build packages, NBC-aligned engineering, Shanghai fabrication and delivery via Apapa or Tin Can Island.
Watertight tested facades, corrosion-protected details, and low-SHGC glazing keep buildings dry and reduce cooling load.
DDP including import duty and clearance, or CIF/FOB via Apapa or Tin Can Island. Our logistics desk plans duty and documentation before cargo leaves the plant.
Yes — supply-only with full engineering and documentation for installation by your contractor is a standard scope we deliver.
Typically 10–16 months from design freeze to completion for a tower, depending on area and access conditions — we confirm at tender.

Local verification and approvals for Nigerian projects
Approval of imported facade systems is a project-specific process, so Hanart packages the evidence your consultants and authorities expect: Nigerian building code provisions calculations verified by a local engineer, custom-classified import documentation, and test certificates for the key performance classes. The same dossier is updated through revisions and issued in final form at handover, so the Lagos approval record is complete.
For tenders, the package is prepared in the format your procurement team requires and delivered as a fixed offer — typically six to twelve weeks from technical brief to priced proposal, including logistics through Apapa and Tin Can Island, DDP or CIF.
