AMC Hospital, the largest healthcare facility in the Netherlands, has undergone a major renovation, which included the replacement of over 10,000m² of out-dated wired glass.
All existing wired safety glass was replaced with new, transparent glazing solutions from fire safety glass manufacturer Pyroguard, to ensure that the hospital adhered to current industry standards. This upgrade also addressed long-standing challenges with maintaining accurate product data records for the glass partitions and doors, many of which had been extended or replaced over the years without clear traceability.
By upgrading the glass throughout the facility, AMC Hospital not only enhanced its aesthetic appeal and improved safety standards but also ensured data consistency across the entire site.
Pyroguard Rapide (Impact 7mm and Impact Satin) was specified for the internal partitions throughout the hospital, incorporating both clear and satin fire safety glass. Pyroguard Protect (Pyroguard T EW30 and T EI30) was installed in areas requiring larger, bespoke pane sizes, delivering exceptional fire protection while aligning with the architect’s vision for aesthetic design.
