Two different products from the range of HansenGlass have been supplied to a specialist sub-contractor working on a prestigious new residential development on the Thames.
As a regular customer of HansenGlass, Systems Aluminium called on the glazing specialist to supply its ThermoCool insulating glass units for the main elevations to the eight storey building.
HansenGlass also supplied some 500 square metres of its CeramaliteTM enamelled units.
These feature a cactus green finish and are employed as spandrel panels to mask the floor slabs and service areas.
HansenGlass coordinated its deliveries with the site team so that the units could be lifted directly from the lorry for glazing at the appropriate floor level.
Such logistical considerations being of vital importance for congested city centre sites.
Each ThermoCool unit incorporated a green tinted outer pane to provide solar control, while the inner leaf utilised a low E glass.
Together the special glasses making up the units optimise the thermal performance of the building envelope in both summer and winter.
