Green Building
Overview/Information
The most important element in architecture today is green. It has changed the way buildings are designed and built. Not an extravagance anymore, green building is a must for sustainable architecture.
Long before “green” became an industry bandwagon, Unicel was preoccupied by the development of products that served environmental purposes.
Energy efficiency and indoor ambience quality reflect a long-standing culture at Unicel. Based on the experience acquired with the development of Vision Control® sealed glass units, we have extended the green benefits to the other products in our portfolio.
Always teaming up with our clients, we recognize the importance of sustainable architecture, optimizing energy efficiency and ensuring indoor air quality.
To achieve these goals, we are constantly searching for new ways to make our products more environmentally friendly and sustainable. Our solutions are ideal for green design projects because they:
- Reduce energy consumption through innovative technologies
- Maximize natural light benefits while minimizing its negative effects on indoor environments
- Control solar heat gain
- Control water penetration and air infiltration
- Offer acoustical performance
- Reduce maintenance requirements
- Are successfully incorporated in LEED certified projects (Grand Rapids Art Museum)
We would be pleased to assist you with your current and future projects. We invite you to explore this section and select the products you wish to specify in your plans. You may browse through our online catalog, download and use the 3-part specs and incorporate our CAD drawings into your design.
