It is an outstanding example for the dimensions the glass expert is able to laminate. Thus, they also expand the possibilities for the material as a supporting element for structural glazing. The exhibit shall inspire architects\u2019 and designers\u2019 imagination and open up new space for creativity. From this year\u2019s September, sedak produces the biggest insulating and safety glass with dimensions of 3.51m x 20m; the second glass record sedak currently holds.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To produce oversize glass for the use as a responsible supporting structure is standard at sedak. Glass fins and beams from Gersthofen (Bavaria) are used worldwide as supporting elements for all-glass fa\u00e7ades or roofs. Designers create thus, archetypal buildings with the transparent material that have become landmarks. The House of European History in Brussels is an example for that as well as the medical faculty in Montpellier, or a gigantic mall in Bangkok.<\/p>\n<p>The exhibit at the special show is a laminate out of 18 layers, each one 15mm thick, bonded with SentryGlass interlayer. The about 30cm thick laminated safety glass weighs 3.6 tons. Every single glass pane has a breaking strength of at least 160 MPA. \u201cThe physical characteristics of this extreme glass build-up allow for completely new ways in the construction with glass,\u201d says Ulrich Theisen, General Manager at sedak, and emphasizes the significance of the in-house development. Such glass constructions resist highest pressure loads and keep their transparency at the same time since the 18 Optiwhite glass layers do not reduce the view through the laminate. Thanks to sedak\u2019s lamination art, the heavy-weight is free from bubbles or other interfering contaminations.<\/p>\n<p>At the stand of sedak\u2019s partner Benteler (hall 15, E 11), the glass manufacturer additionally showcases a glass-fin exhibit as a part of a construction of an all-glass fa\u00e7ade. The filigree connection of glass fin and fa\u00e7ade glazing via toggles is technologically pioneering. Those especially small titanium parts unite maximum transparency with an installation-friendly glazing system. They are integrated precisely into the multiple laminate by sedak.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr noshade=\"noshade\" size=\"1\" \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Special show at glasstec: glasstechnology live with sedak\u2019s 18-layer laminate in hall 11.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Glass fin by sedak: Stand Benteler, hall 15, stand E 11.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr noshade=\"noshade\" size=\"1\" \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pr-neu.de\/newsroom\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/18-04_glasstec_01_G.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8709 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pr-neu.de\/newsroom\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/18-04_glasstec_01_G-300x201.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"201\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pr-neu.de\/newsroom\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/18-04_glasstec_01_G-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pr-neu.de\/newsroom\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/18-04_glasstec_01_G-768x516.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.pr-neu.de\/newsroom\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/18-04_glasstec_01_G-1024x687.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pr-neu.de\/newsroom\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/18-04_glasstec_01_G-110x74.jpg 110w, https:\/\/www.pr-neu.de\/newsroom\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/18-04_glasstec_01_G-420x282.jpg 420w, https:\/\/www.pr-neu.de\/newsroom\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/18-04_glasstec_01_G-641x430.jpg 641w, https:\/\/www.pr-neu.de\/newsroom\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/18-04_glasstec_01_G.jpg 1795w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Eighteen single glass panes, one exhibit, the highest level<br \/>\nof transparency, and perfect workmanship: sedak presents lamination<br \/>\nart of superlatives at the special show \u201eglass technology live\u201c.<br \/>\nPhoto: sedak GmbH &amp; Co.
