According to TuffX, an elegant building requires an equally elegant safety glass solution – and this is said to be exactly what the toughened glass specialist supplied to a residential complex in Scotland.
The client required 15 Juliet balconies to provide both ‘unobstructed views and unrivalled safety’ from multiple storeys of windows.
TuffX supplied 17.5mm toughened clear glass in varying sizes, with a ‘perfectly aligned’ finish and ‘brilliant’ polished edge, to fulfil the brief.
TuffX says that the resulting balconies provide great views from the inside looking out, but also a ‘barely-there, high-end addition’ to the outside of the building. The finished balconies are said to complement the stonework facade in a minimalist, modern manner, without imposing on the building’s original beauty.
Great views are coupled with maximum safety – with the glass providing high-fall protection for the large windows, which can be opened up completely.
“This is just the type of project TuffX is proud to excel at,” said TuffX’s managing director, Graham Price. “With 25 years as the UK’s leading safety glass manufacturer, we have both the expertise and the capability to provide the best products for the best solutions, for safety glass that looks as good as it functions.”
