Innovation in Metal and Glass

It’s enough to make you smile: a dental building constructed with innovations in metal and glass that yield cost control, performance and beauty. Buzbee Dental in Springfield, Missouri, features 5,400 sq. ft. of 4 mm ALUCOBOND® Material as exterior cladding panels in colors of Birch and Cadet Grey. Chosen in part for their superior formability, the ALUCOBOND® panels were engineered, fabricated and installed by Universe Corporation, St. Louis. “This project uses a rainscreen system that has a non-progressive installation, meaning that any one panel can be removed and re-installed without disturbing adjacent panels,” said Matt Ford of Universe Corporation. “We worked with the designer on panel module size and other details to control costs.”
