Glass walls and railings maximize interior lighting and create a comfortable environment to collaborate.
The remodel has an astronomical theme and the exterior of the Dome resembles Saturn surrounded by its rings. We provided our Bent Tempered glass for its versatility and durability.
TemperShield® can be used for internal partitioning, stair and atrium balustrades, skylights, frameless doors, and glass floors; to name just a few of its applications.
The open common spaces are accentuated by the TemperedShield® Glass that allows natural light to fill the space.
We have the capabilities to bend our Glass in many different ways, shapes, and sizes; providing a limitless array of options for custom curves. Large range of glass types available off-the-shelf, or bespoke to your specifications.
TemperShield® can be used as a structural component in modern design - in some instances the use of bent toughened glass can mean thinner, light stock is used whilst still meeting the required wind loading parameters. Its use will also increase natural light and the feeling of space.
Whether it is enhancing a sweeping shot front display, creating a distinctive entrance with revolving doors, contrasting straight lines with smooth curves, TemperShield® is a versatile solution.
Maximize the natural light coming into a room through curved, toughened glass, or provide protection from the elements for footpaths and entrance ways surrounding commercial properties.
