Glas Fassaden
Where are Glas Fassaden Used?
Glas Fassaden, meaning glass-designed facades, are preferred in many buildings and skyscrapers in our age, especially in business centers. This is because glass-clad facades create a very prestigious and stylish expression in buildings. Cladding glass facades, which carry the nobility of glass processed to the present day to the exterior, are preferred in hospitals and corporate structures in addition to business centers and commercial areas. Universities and research centers are also among the structures that frequently use cladding glass facades.
Glass Facade Systems and Their Advantages
Glas fassaden applications are used in:
1 - Glass curtain wall
2 - Compact laminate facade
3 – Terra Cotta facade
4 - Ceramic facade
5 - Granite facade applications.
The advantages of facade cladding systems are endless, as they bring very low costs. For example, glass facade claddings are impermeable to water vapor, thus preventing the formation of mold and fungus. They keep the materials dry during construction. With their air barrier feature, they resist even maximum strength air currents. By preventing the escape of hot or cold air (depending on the season) that is desired to be contained within the space, they provide savings of around 30%. With only 1% of the building's facade cladding cost, they help equalize the functional life of the insulation material with the life of the building.
