Clinica Santa Angela de la Cruz

The hospital "Santa Angela de la Cruz" in Sevilla received a new sun protection façade made of HAVER Architectural Mesh.

The outside façade of the hospital is cladded with the stainless steel wire mesh DOKAWELL-MONO.

Benefits at a glance:

Shading and thermal comfort
Due to its semi-transparent geometry, metal mesh is well suitable for external sun protection. Woven wire mesh provides shade and reduces temperature in the summer, while maintaining warmth and reducing heating costs in the winter.

Use of daylight with good view from the inside
Despite efficient shading, sun protection made of wire mesh offers visual transparency from the inside. Due to frontal viewing angle and lighting situation during the day, architectural wire mesh appears extremely transparent from the inside – also depending on the choice of mesh. The semi-transparency of HAVER Architectural Mesh allows an abundance of natural light to flow into the building, so that the use of artificial light can be reduced during the day.

Natural Ventilation
Due to its open area, external sun protection made of stainless steel wire mesh allows good air circulation. Accordingly the wire mesh prevents the accumulation of warm air in front of the facade.

In total HAVER & BOECKER supplied 1510 m² HAVER Architectural Mesh in ready-to-install panels and supported the local metalworker during the installation.
