Compagnie Theater - Pyrobel Fineo Project

Transforming 2,800 square metres of office space into a single open-plan environment t required reopening galleries and walkways and creating a fire compartment of more than 1,000 square metres. In such a densely built-up area in the historic centre of Amsterdam, fire resistance had to be integrated into the historic façade rather than inside the building itself. This was the only way to achieve an open compartment of this size.

Working closely with the architect and the client, AGC provided Pyrobel Fineo, a slim, heritage-compatible glazing solution that combines 60 minutes of fire resistance, excellent thermal insulation and burglary protection within a thickness of just 26 mm. Thanks to this collaboration and the innovative glazing solution, the former church has now reopened, preserving its historic openness while meeting the highest modern safety and performance standards.
