BIRD-SAFE / Façades

Glazed façades are one of the main causes of collision for birds, especially in buildings that lie on migration routes. Thousands of birds die in the daytime due to the transparency of or reflections in glazed surfaces and also at night because they’re attracted by light sources. Special contrasting patterns (in terms of both colour and opacity) make these surfaces visible to birds’ eyes because they interrupt uniformity. Made with the Madras® Bird-Safe production process – involving a satin finish of the glass – this glazing is not altered by light or atmospheric agents and is easy to maintain.
