Global Trade Centre, Beijing China

Over 55,000m2 of Pilkington Eclipse Advantage™ Arctic Blue, manufactured by Pilkington North America, was used in the striking Global Trade Center (Huang An Building) twin tower project in the Chinese capital, Beijing.

Pilkington Eclipse Advantage™ Arctic Blue 'fits' with current design trends, offering increased daylight transmittance and reduced reflectivity, combined with low-E properties.

Upon completion of the first installation, the unique and desirable blue hue of the glass helped in the successful leasing of office space in the building. The owner was also pleased with the availability of replacement glass due to the benefits of pyrolytic coatings.
