Construction of warm and eco-friendly primary school has started

Expanded glass producer JSC Stikloporas sponsors public establishment centre of learning “Patirciu slenis”. 132 m³ of expanded glass as a generous gift was given seeking to support building an exclusive design primary school in Trakai Historical National Park, Lithuania. It will consist of green materials such as light concrete with expanded glass, clay, hemp. A unique shape of dome has no angles and no corners. The building will have lots of space to boost children creativity and satisfy curiosity to learn.

As the material is so light it is already loved by builders. More importantly, at the end of the project the school will be warm, safe and eco-friendly. The coholders plan to open doors next September of 2021.
