Innovations at glasstec 2008

The i-module façade, developed by German companies Schüco and Trox, and used in the Capricorn House completed in spring 2006, is only one example of how modern glass facades can be used to successfully meet the increased requirements placed on energy efficiency and user convenience in buildings.

Numerous other trend-setting facade concepts as well as realized projects will be shown from 21 to 25 October 2008 at glasstec, the world's largest trade fair for the glass sector, and examined in the accompanying Architects’ Congress.

The glass facade of the Capricorn House in the Düsseldorf Medienhafen ranks as one of the most modern in Germany.
