DREAM City is a comprehensive area designed for an integrated urban development. A world class infrastructure facility that opened its doors to a green future with a Smart Grid system that includes, amongst other things, renewable energy resources and a solide waste management based on a reduce, recycle, reuse and recover materials concept. 

The main entrance of DREAM City is a huge futuristic and modular infrastructure, where glass is the main protagonist and helped to create natural connection both internal and external environment. A link enhanced by STRATO® Extra Chiaro EVA film implementation, mainly used in the laminating safety glass industry applications, known for its aesthetics and high-performing characteristics.  

The building is made of both 170 sqm of STRATO® Extra Chiaro EVA film double bended laminated glass and 700 sqm of STRATO® Extra Chiaro EVA film flat laminated glass.  

An engineering project, a combination of two different modular laminated glasses, perfectly matched on natural wooden templates. A stunning architectonical construction, a combination of strong expertise and need to create the perfect balance both natural elegance and safety.

Rangkala Glass Design selected STRATO® EVA Extra Chiaro film to guarantee to the main entrance of DREAM City a combination of highly uniform strength, safety, perfect transparency and unobstructed view.  

The phase prior to the installation of STRATO® Extra Chiaro EVA film laminated glasses concerned the glass lamination process. Rangkala Glass Design Company, heading the glazing project, used a TK Lamijet-04 oven in order to obtain high-quality laminated glasses.
