A masterpiece that challenges the norms of design and sustainability. Spanning over 30 feet and composed of more than 130 hollow glass components, this extraordinary structure seamlessly blends beauty, creativity, and environmental responsibility. We are proud that SentryGlas® and Trosifol® Extra Stiff Pro have played a fundamental role in bringing this visionary structure to life. The glass laminates were crafted using Trosifol® Extra Stiff Pro, while structural connections were made possible with thick SentryGlas® sheets, a testament to the strength and performance of laminated glass. The Glass Bridge demonstrates how glass—traditionally considered fragile—can be meticulously engineered to serve as a primary structural system. This pioneering application in large-scale architectural design is now open to the public at the Corning Museum of Glass in upstate New York. The project seeks to inspire architects, engineers, and researchers to rethink conventional construction methods and explore strategies that optimize material efficiency while maximizing sustainability and recyclability. Discover this revolutionary design at the Special Projects Gallery, open through September 1, 2025. Join us in celebrating the future of glass architecture!

FlashBack Friday! National Aquarium Rainforest, Baltimore Interlayer: SentryGlas® Natural UV Architect: Studio Gang Engineer: McLaren, a Division of KCI Laminator: Oldcastle BuildingEnvelope Year: 2015 Images © Supittra & M-DESIGNZ LLC & Efrain Padro For more information, visit www.trosifol.com In the month of International Women’s Day💐, we take a moment to celebrate and congratulate all women for their achievements and contributions! We also want to shine a spotlight on one of our favorite architects – Jeanne Gang. A visionary leader in contemporary architecture, she is renowned for her innovative approach to sustainable and socially impactful design. Founder of Studio Gang, Jeanne Gang has pushed boundaries, blending nature and the built environment in groundbreaking ways. Her work inspires future generations of women architects and creators to lead with bold ideas and a passion for positive change. We're thrilled to showcase an incredible project where we had the opportunity to collaborate, integrating our SentryGlas® Natural UV interlayer: the National Aquarium in Baltimore. Located in Baltimore’s Inner Harbor, this iconic structure is undergoing a major transformation, replacing all 684 glass panes of its distinctive, pyramid-topped Upland Tropical Rain Forest exhibit. The upgraded glass not only enhances temperature control for a more comfortable environment for animals and guests but also features permanent acid-etching to prevent bird collisions. Additionally, the SentryGlas® Natural UV interlayer ensures uniform light diffusion, eliminating "hot-spots" on the plants below and creating a soft, ambient glow at night. #InternationalWomensDay #JeanneGang #StudioGang #WomenInArchitecture #SentryGlas #BaltimoreAquarium #SustainableDesign
