Health Sport & Wellness
In contemporary architecture for health, sport, and wellness facilities, the right choice of glass is essential not just for aesthetics. In spaces dedicated to health, wellness, and physical activity – such as hospitals, medical clinics, sports centres, and wellness facilities – the choice of architectural glass plays a critical role in ensuring safety, hygiene, comfort, and design integrity.
Whether you're designing a hospital, a sports centre, a spa, or a wellness retreat, glass can play a pivotal role in creating open, inviting, and functional spaces.
Glass must perform under demanding conditions while supporting aesthetic and functional goals, from daylighting and transparency to privacy and impact resistance.
Architectural glass is a key material in designing resilient, safe, and inspiring spaces for health and wellness. By aligning the right glass solutions with the specific demands of each application, specifiers can elevate performance without compromising aesthetics.
Performance Meets Design
In healthcare and wellness architecture, glass must go beyond transparency. The right specifications can deliver:
- Impact & Shatter Resistance: Always prioritize toughened or laminated safety glass in high-impact zones, patient areas, and public corridors.
- Moisture and Thermal Resistance: For saunas, pools, and showers, use glass designed to handle high humidity and temperature swings.
- Hygiene: Glass is naturally hygienic but opting for anti-microbial coating can reduce the risk of bacterial and viral transmission in healthcare environments.
- Cleanability: Smooth, non-porous surfaces with optional easy-clean coatings can reduce maintenance in wellness and healthcare spaces.
- Privacy & Acoustics: Essential for dignity, confidentiality, and peace of mind in medical and wellness spaces.
- Light Transmission & Sun Control: Managing glare and solar energy to improve comfort and energy efficiency.
- Energy efficiency: Look for glass with solar control or low-emissivity coatings to support energy-efficient design goals.
Recommended Glass Products
Toughened Glass offers high mechanical strength and thermal resistance - critical for high-impact areas and fluctuating temperature zones. In sports and wellness environments, it provides robust safety without compromising on openness or design. It is also recommended for internal partitions in hospitals and clinics where durable, hygienic materials are essential.
Ideal for: Padel and squash courts, shower and locker rooms, spa zones, sauna doors.
Laminated Glass ensures safety and protection through its interlayer that holds the glass together on impact. In hospitals and healthcare settings, it’s commonly used in areas where fall protection, sound insulation, or privacy is necessary. In sports centres and aquatic zones, it ensures long-term safety and structural integrity.
Ideal for: Padel courts (toughened), hospital partitions, observation windows, pool surrounds, balconies, overhead glazing.
Acoustic Laminated Glass significantly reduces sound transmission, helping create peaceful environments vital for patient recovery and relaxation in wellness zones. It supports hospital design standards that call for acoustic comfort and confidentiality.
Ideal for: Patient rooms, consulting rooms, recovery areas, yoga studios, therapy spaces.
Extra Clear Low-Iron Glass delivers high optical clarity with minimal green tint, while Anti-reflective Glass reduces reflection - ensuring full visibility in sports arenas and clean, modern aesthetics in medical environments. This is especially important for visual monitoring in ICUs, isolation rooms, or rehabilitation areas.
Ideal for: Court glazing (squash, padel), viewing areas, hospital observation panels, cleanroom environments.
Digitally Printed, Screen-Printed & Acid-Etched Glass - these treatments add visual texture, branding elements, and privacy - without sacrificing natural light. In hospitals, they support intuitive navigation and zoning while maintaining sterile conditions. In wellness and spa settings, they provide a sense of calm and enclosure.
Ideal for: Privacy partitions, wayfinding, decorative facades, spa interiors, cleanroom signage.
Smart Mirrors combine reflectivity with integrated technology - displaying lighting controls, health metrics, or media. In wellness spaces, they enhance user experience. In healthcare, they support smart diagnostics and space efficiency.
Ideal for: Hotel spas, gyms, wellness suites, medical examination rooms
Anticorrosive Mirrors specially coated to resist humidity and corrosion, these mirrors are ideal for humid or cleaning-intensive environments. They retain clarity and finish over time, even in harsh conditions.
Ideal for: Wet rooms, saunas, steam rooms, hospital washrooms
Antimicrobial Glass with an antimicrobial coating, inhibits the growth of bacteria and microbes on its surface. It enhances infection control in healthcare settings and contributes to cleaner wellness environments.
Ideal for: Hospitals, clinics, recovery areas, wellness facilities with high hygiene requirements
Self-cleaning Glass breaks down organic dirt and promote rainwater runoff, significantly reducing maintenance needs. In hospitals and wellness centres, this supports cleanliness and lowers operational costs.
Ideal for: Facades, skylights, pool enclosures, padel courts, hard-to-reach glazing
Solar Control and Thermal Insulation Glass in double and triple insulating glass units with low-e coatings enhance thermal comfort and energy efficiency. In healthcare, stable internal conditions support patient wellbeing. In wellness centres, they help control interior climate, even in spaces with high humidity.
Ideal for: Hospital facades, atriums, rehabilitation centres, wellness retreats
Fire-Resistant Glass ensures fire and smoke containment while maintaining light and visibility. It meets stringent safety codes for healthcare facilities and can be seamlessly integrated with other glazing systems.
Ideal for: Hospital escape routes, treatment rooms, wellness centres, sports venues
