“Trendy, culturally rich, and high tech are all words used to describe the Austin, Texas area. These influences are seen in the design of this suburban bank where Fibergrate has succeeded in blending functionality with a modern, industrial element to create a unique sunscreen application.”
“The goal of this project was to create a sunscreen to filter the harsh Texas sun and provide shade during the long summer months. The look for the sunscreen was to be high-tech, and industrial. Stainless steel was an obvious option for this project; however, the increasing price of steel, heavy weight, and cost for replacing steel due to corrosion soon had the bank looking for a much wiser investment.”
“Fibergrate was able to “cash in” on this architectural application by using 4’x12’ panels of 2” deep FGI-AM molded grating in gray. The gray color gives the appearance of stainless steel while the light weight of the material made fabrication and installation of the project a snap. The corrosion resistant feature of the grating will definitely provide a strong return on investment for years to come!”
