Discover The Le Parc Hotel in Ecuador

Discover The Le Parc Hotel in Ecuador  

Hotels worldwide constantly seek maximum refinement and sophistication to attract more guests and become a reference for quality accommodation and excellence in high-level services. For the Le Parc  Hotel, located in Quito, Ecuador, this search for improvements and progress is on the same track.

GlassecViracon glass was essential to achieve sustainable architecture, and all certifications, such as the Edge Advance pre-certification and LEED certification from the Green Building Council

Approximately 8,000 m² of silver Solar control glass was used and carefully selected to provide elegance, sophistication, and beauty. Most importantly, it offers maximum comfort to users and contributes to a sustainable environment.

According to the investor, Gabriela Sommerfeld, the search for certifications was motivated to achieve SDG 11 (Sustainable Development Goal 11), entitled “sustainable cities and communities,” one of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals established by the Assembly General of the United Nations in 2015. 

Take a look at some pictures of the project:

“The glass chosen for the project is a special glass that helps to control the temperature (as it is insulated and has a hermetically sealed chamber) and, therefore, reduces the need for electricity consumption like the use of air conditioning, in addition to ensuring good lighting and acoustic control.”

“The project has about 8,000 m² of high-performance insulating glass with a highly complex design, with more than 600 different sizes. The glass was imported before the construction of the concrete slabs and it was necessary to implement a high precision model of the windows to identify the final preliminary measurements and generate precise assembly and installation details using a unique coding of each glass panel unit to generate an agile and orderly logistics and installation process.”

“Ga Ins 128 is a glass with excellent thermal properties that surpass anything that has been installed in the city. In terms of warranty, we are the only supplier with a ten-year warranty.”

CHOOSING GLASSECVIRACON INSULATED GLASS

Insulated glass is the best option for projects that seek modernity, innovation, and natural light.

The product reduces direct heat by up to 30%, contributing to energy savings. It also concentrates heat exchange by 75%, which provides more thermal comfort and is isolated from temperature variations. Moreover, the glass allows more natural light to enter the environment without harming ventilation.

The correct combination of glass thickness reduces external sounds and noise, offering greater acoustic comfort than other glass types.
