The ultimate pursuit of quality and technology
The project of Wangchao Center adopts the 12-meter large double SGP laminated IGU Low-E glass manufactured by NorthGlass. It is equipped with three layers of ultra-white SGP glass ribs, which not only has excellent thermal insulation performance, but also can effectively block ultraviolet rays, providing sufficient light and comfortable indoor environment.
In order to fit the overall shape of the building, the four large glass curtain wall leans outwards, so requirements of stack difference, flatness of the side and coincidence between the glass are extremely high. NorthGlass ensures that the quality of each piece of glass reaches extremely high standards.

A model of integrating nature and city
Looking up from the Qiantang River, Hangzhou Wangchao center is like a unique lighthouse. The designer combines the unique outline of the building with the ripples of the undulating hills around the tea garden and the ripples of the West Lake. Eight giant corner columns rise from the ground, and the rolling architectural outline is not only an important part of the expression of the architectural form, but also an effective structural solution.
