Wood-metal Structural Windows
Based on a wood-metal window, we have developed a version in Structural. The glass is glued to the wood and a metal profile. This innovation has been tested at the Biel Engineering School and has confirmed its air and water tightness and very good wind resistance.
A prestigious project has thus been carried out in Geneva: the Care Building of the Geneva University Hospital, the HUG.
