At Adare Manor, a neo-Gothic luxury hotel in County Limerick, Ireland, historic glass was reused and IMC Glass supplied around 1100 insulating glass units for the renovation. The Slim-Glaze products, supported by Super Spacer Heritage, not only provided energy efficiency but also the desired low dew point to prevent condensation.

Flexible Super Spacer for artist windows
The parish church of St Margaret in Apetlon, Austria is characterised by the successful conversion of a brutalist concrete extension. The listed, arched artist's windows were given efficient thermal insulation with Super Spacer TriSeal SG. This flexible spacer avoids thermal bridges at the edge of the glass and contributes to the energy efficiency of the windows.

These projects illustrate that Super Spacer not only enables restorations in keeping with historical monuments, but also makes a decisive contribution to climate protection goals. The combination of historical authenticity and modern technology shows that it is possible to harmonise the preservation of historical monuments and climate protection.
