Al Hamra Tower: An iconic 414-meter skyscraper in Kuwait featuring a sustainable glass facade and energy-efficient internal roller blinds, offering breathtaking views of the Arabian Gulf and setting a new standard for urban development.
Al Hamra is the new landmark with its iconic tower heralding a new era of development and prosperity in Kuwait.
THE BUILDING
Al Hamra is one of the tallest towers, and by far the tallest sculpted skyscraper, in the world. With a height of 414 metres and 80 levels Al Hamra contains a business centre as well as a luxury centre. The tower is visible from miles around and provides a spectacular view over Kuwait and across the Arabian Gulf. The solid south wall is designed in a way to decrease the solar radiation.
THE REQUIREMENT
The impressive glass facade required a sustainable solution for temperature and solar control.
THE SOLUTION
SilverScreen Enviro: To maximise energy efficiency all offices and meeting rooms have internal SilverScreen Enviro roller blinds.
Such metalled screens are highly reflective and 100% recyclable, with Oeko-Tex, Greenguard Gold certification and Cradle to Cradle.
