HANGZHOU AIRPORT / CHINA
ROOF // SOLID POLYCARBONATE SYSTEM
Hangzhou airport, one of the busiest in China, was built as a joint venture with Hong Kong’s Airport Authority. Although glass was originally specified for the terminal entrance canopies, Palram conceived an effective solution based on the Sunglaze panel system. Sunglaze panels were easily installed into the wavy entrance profiles using cold bending. Their leak-free design was complimented by tailor-made gutters at the lower ends of the canopy.
