The owners
of the Lloyd's Building found that paint
on the frame around the atrium was
shedding and plating onto the glass and
adhered to the surface, making cleaning
extremely difficult. The glass was
successfully converted to Low-M (Low-Maintenance)
Glass. Today, the paint still flakes but
thanks to ClearShield is easily wiped
off and conventional cleaning methods
are still sufficient to maintain the
glass.
Lloyds'
Building Facilities Manager said,
“We are very
impressed with the ClearShield System,
it has been extremely beneficial to our
facilities management operation and we
intend to carry on with the aftercare
regime."
Santander
Corp Santa Fe, Mexico
The Banco
Santander offices in Santa Fe and
Querétaro were awarded with the
Intelligent Building Prize in 1994 by
the Mexican Institute of Intelligent
Building for their use of advanced
technology. Keen to uphold the image of
perfection, the buildings' owners
requested the glass was renovated and
protected onsite with ClearShield. A
total of over 20,000m2 of glass was
treated.
Hitaveita
Sudurnesja Powerplant, Iceland
For many
years, harsh chemicals were required to
clean the glass at this geothermal
powerplant. Glass easily became opaque
due to the severe silica contamination.
Despite
frequent cleaning, the glass would
quickly become dirty again. When the
time came to replace the ordinary glass,
pre-treated ClearShield Glass was
specified. Since then, silica build-up
has been minimal, resulting in a
considerable amount of money saved
through not having to replace the glass.
