In collaboration with Van de Looy Glas and B+O Architecture and Urban Design, the beautiful estate de Oude Tempel has received a contemporary upgrade with BENGglas!

Originally built in 1919 as a summer residence, this monument has served various functions over the years, including as a residence for psychiatric clients. In the current transformation, the property is being repurposed as a care villa for residents with active care needs. The entire estate is surrounded by two new buildings with care apartments.

BENGglas is proud to have contributed to this special transformation and thanks Van de Looy Glas and B+O Architecture and Urban Design for their trust!

In the heart of Amsterdam, Van de Looy Glas has once again been able to carry out a special project: the sustainability enhancement of a beautiful monumental building. Within the strict guidelines for monuments, their team replaced the single glazing with BENGglas®, without compromising the historical appearance of the building.

The result is a significant improvement in comfort and energy performance, while preserving the character of the building. Thanks to their experience and careful preparation, they were able to complete the entire project within one week, with minimal inconvenience to the residents.

Van Dam Glas & Montage has once again sustainably upgraded a beautiful municipal monument with BENGglas: De Sociëteit Vereeniging in Haarlem. This remarkable building from 1923 on the Zijlweg has a rich history — and now also a future that is ready for the coming decades.

The old single glazing (U=5.80) was replaced with BENGglas Single Coated (U=0.40). An improvement by a factor of 14, which ensures significantly more comfort inside and a substantial reduction in CO₂ emissions.

Multiglas has completely renovated this special building with vacuum glass. Thanks to BENGglas, the original wooden frames could be preserved, and the authentic appearance remains intact. The insulation value jumped from 5.80 to 0.50 (Ug) — a huge improvement that provides more comfort and significant energy savings.

In the heart of Hattem, Bosch & Nagelhout chose BENGglas® to make this National Monument from 1626 more sustainable. This prepares the building for the future without compromising its historical appearance.

Because BENGglas fits in the existing window frames, the original appearance was preserved. At the same time, comfort and energy performance have been significantly improved. A fine example of how modern insulation glass makes monumental buildings future-proof.

The Lakenhal, a historic monument in the heart of Herentals (Belgium), will soon be equipped with BENGglas® — a next step in the sustainable preservation of protected heritage. Originally built as a cloth hall for traders, this centuries-old building remains one of the most recognizable buildings in the city.

For this project, BENGglas® Single Coated was chosen — color-neutral vacuum glass with a U-value of 0.40. This glass insulates three times better than HR++ glass, without modifications to the existing frames.
