Tvitec has supplied the glass for Amazon’s new headquarters in Milan, northern Italy
On 13 February, property services provider Colliers International announced the signing of a lease agreement in Milan with the logistics giant Amazon. This secured a new headquarters for Amazon in the up-and-coming business district of Porta Nuova in the northern Italian metropolis. Amazon’s move into the building will mark the completion of some very impressive renovation work. The new façade includes more than 10,000 square metres of functional glazing and over 1,100 glass fins supplied by ISOLAR® partner Tvitec Técnicas de Vidrio Transformado S.A. from Ponferrada in northern Spain. This achievement was recognised in the References Competition at the ISOLAR® Group’s 2017 annual conference in Berlin.

The building is owned by an international property fund.
