Czech Geological Survey

The building in Prague’s Klárov is a cultural monument that required sensitive intervention and the replacement of old, no longer functional windows. Therefore, we and the preservationists paid careful attention to the reconstruction.

Replacement of windows

The windows were always sampled to ensure 100% the desired performance. The job was all the more challenging because most of the windows were of an atypical arch shape. The exchange was carried out during the full operation of the Czech Geological Survey.
