GLASS FOR FAÇADE 2020

59 SAINT-GOBAIN BUILDING GLASS SISAG is one of the two most important Swiss providers of electric control and information systems for cable cars, as well as control and automation systems for other transportation and industrial applications. The SIS campus is a new addition to the company’s headquarters in Schattdorf, Switzerland. The new building is 31 meters high and includes production areas, offices, a restaurant, as well as hotel rooms for training course participants. Energy efficiency was of primary importance when designing the new campus. A suitable solution was sought to ensure that this could be maintained, despite the glass façade. Except for the north side of the building, the entire façade was fitted with dynamic glass by SAINT-GOBAIN SageGlass. This innovative glass can be programmed to tint automatically according to the level of sunlight. External solar protection systems are therefore not required, enabling people in the building to have uninterrupted views of the outdoors. The 4,265 m 2 of SageGlass ® CLIMATOP CLASSIC also ensure pleasant room temperatures and prevent glare. The glass is controlled silently, which also contributes to the well-being of employees, guests and visitors.
