Amsterdam ArenA Stadium Escalator Enclosures Beat Summer Heat, Deflect Winter’s Worst with New Lexan* Solar Control Sheet with Infrared (IR) Heat Blocking from GE
AMSTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS — June 30 , 2005 — One of the first commercial applications of revolutionary Lexan* Solar Control IR polycarbonate sheet from GE Advanced Materials, Specialty Film & Sheet is helping to block the elements from crowds as they come and go at the ArenA in Amsterdam. The four escalators leading to the ArenA are enclosed in the new material. The escalators are designed to help handle large crowds, which can lead to uncomfortable temperature levels within the enclosures. Natural ventilation combined with the Lexan Solar Control IR glazing helps to avoid heat build-up. Lexan Solar Control IR polycarbonate sheet helps absorb infrared (IR) and near-IR radiation from the sun, potentially reducing interior heat buildup by up to levels as much as 40 percent. In addition it can offer up to 60 percent more visible light transmission than other plastic-based IR-absorbent glazing products.
