Glass parallelograms for the Sphere in Las Vegas
The Sphere is now acknowledged as the world’s largest spherical structure. The new event centre in the casino city of Las Vegas, USA, is attracting worldwide attention with its sensational LED outer shell. The structure also conceals insulating glass units in the form of parallelograms. They are equipped with the robust and exceptionally durable Warm Edge system from sealant and adhesive manufacturer H.B. Fuller | KÖMMERLING, which enables tremendous design freedom thanks to robot-assisted production.
Warm Edge System from H.B. Fuller | KÖMMERLING on the road to success
More than 150 insulating glass lines with Ködispace 4SG in operation – It is clear that to continually improve the energy efficiency of buildings and to reduce CO2 emissions insulating glass utilizing high performance warm edge spacer system technology is absolutely essential. That is why more and more insulating glass manufacturers count on the specialized Warm Edge technology from adhesives and sealants manufacturer H.B. Fuller | KÖMMERLING. The Ködispace 4SG system, dispensed from a drum is key to highly efficient, economical, and fully automated insulating glass production and most importantly future proofing the next generation of insulating glass design and production.
A glass look for Amazon’s urban treehouse at the heart of Seattle
In Seattle’s South Lake Union neighbourhood, one office building follows the next. But these aren’t just any offices. This is where the headquarters of online giant Amazon are located. Between modern cafés and restaurants, 40 office buildings rise from the ground. In 2021, the company expanded its headquarters and built more modern glass buildings as part of the “Rufus 2.0” project – including Block 18. This office building was designed in the image of an urban tree house. A wooden staircase winds through the centre of the building, immediately catching the eye from the outside thanks to the glass façade. These glass elements were brought to life using the Ködispace 4SG warm-edge system from H.B. Fuller | KÖMMERLING to meet the high specifications in terms of excellent energy efficiency, durability and ultra-modern design.
Glass architecture contributes to redensification in New York’s Manhattan borough
Large-scale structural glazing façades not only distinguish commercial buildings but are also used increasingly for residential properties. Glass residential architecture is extremely popular in major US cities. A special project has now been completed in the New York borough of Manhattan. In Hudson Square, a glass tower directly on top of a historic building has created a new and very distinctive living space. In the insulating glass, the highly efficient Warm Edge system from manufacturer H.B. Fuller | KÖMMERLING ensures low energy costs and a comfortable living environment.
Warm Edge technology for sustainable planned glass towers
In Canada’s megacity of Toronto, one of the most fascinating and largest construction projects is currently in progress. The new, sustainably planned CIBC Square with its two soaring glass towers will be shaping the skyline of the Canadian business centre and contributing to positive urban development for decades to come. The energy-efficient Warm Edge system from adhesive and sealant manufacturer H.B. Fuller | KÖMMERLING was used in the construction of the distinctive glass diamond shapes in the façades.
