PROBLEM
A 13-story office complex in Vancouver, British Columbia, features floor-to-ceiling windows on its entire southern face. And while those windows are an aesthetic asset, until recently, they were a liability to the comfort of the occupants in the building once the sun rose over the horizon.
According to the building's property manager, the office complex was originally constructed with windows that offered only minimal solar protection. So once the sun's rays reached the windows in the morning, the temperature would climb quickly.
3M Window Film Saves Energy and Landfill at a Victoria, BC Brownfield
The Province of British Columbia needed a state of the art building to facilitate the growth of Victoria’s thriving technology sector (VITP). The former Glendale Lodge Facility was a prime location, but had been largely vacant in years and in need of a major renovation.
There were obvious economic and environmental benefits for developing the former Glendale Lodge facility. The use of existing windows saved on virgin material costs as well as diverted a large percentage of materials from landfills.
