AGG Insulglass LowE Max<sup>®</sup> double-glazed units with Low Iron glass were the ideal choice to satisfy the project’s challenging criteria. ‘Not only does the glass have outstanding performance values, but the base glass is also low-iron (specially produced with a reduction of the naturally occurring iron in the base material),’ says Barry. ‘This greatly increases the transparency of the glass, increases the light transmitted into the building, and has a wonderful neutral appearance. I would love to use this on more projects.’
AGG Insulglass LowE Max<sup>®</sup> were partnered with thermally broken aluminium framing. The glass is structurally front glazed in the suite, further enhancing its thermal performance, and has a very clean external visible appearance since there are no aluminium glazing beads.
The Inveresk Library’s impressive combination of transparency, efficiency, and comfort demonstrates clever design principles, as well as the clear benefits of specifying quality performance materials.
