Installation of an innovative Glass-to-Concrete (G2C) walkway completed

We are excited to announce the completion of the installation of our groundbreaking glass-to-concrete walkway, developed by a team from the Faculty of Engineering and Architecture of Ghent University (Belgium) with the support of the department of structural adhesives of fischerwerke GmbH & Co (Germany) and vitroplena bv (Belgium).


The demonstrator, named G2C, explores the potential of structurally bonding glass to concrete, presenting a modern alternative to traditional mechanical connections while offering enhanced aesthetical appearance and performance benefits. The prototype showcases several key applications of this innovative bonding technique using ultra-high performance concrete and laminated glass.


We invite you to experience this innovative walkway firsthand at Glasstec 2024. Visit us at the Glass Technology Live stand (Hall 11, F27) to learn more about the future of glass technology and the transformative potential of the G2C project.
