Swisspacer – The Balustrade Diversion

A glass balcony

Swisspacer has diverted from its traditional spacer bar business to launch La Defender, a suite of balustrade systems designed for residential and commercial applications. 

La Defender includes a number of options, from slim 6x6mm systems for residential developments through to 12x12mm systems with 3kN loads for the most demanding commercial projects. The systems are tested to British and European standards for glass barriers inside and outside buildings, with continuous gaskets maximising performance through the glass and anodised aluminium covers offering enhanced durability.

 

 “La Defender is our new suite of high end balustrades. This comprehensive range offers solutions for a variety of applications, including residential and newbuild developments and large-scale commercial projects such as shopping centres, public buildings and sports venues.”

Commercial Director, Swisspacer UK & Ireland

 

Feedback

“We’ve had excellent feedback from our customers so far. Combining great looks and long-lasting performance, La Defender offers easy, one-sided installation so it’s a popular choice with installers too,” continues Swisspacer's Cooper.

Swisspacer’s La Defender balustrade range joins La Pensilina, a cantilever, load-bearing glass canopy system. Designed for outdoor use and installed above entrance doors or sliding and folding patio doors, it is suited to residential and light commercial applications. These new products are made by Logli Massimo, part of the Saint-Gobain group, which specialises in high performing systems and accessories for the fixing and assembly of glass panels.
