By Jonny Suchor. 

Watch this video playlist presented by XIPRE to learn about the aesthetic and functional appeal of translucent panels. 

XIPRE presents a series of insightful videos that explore the innovative use of translucent materials. This is a must-watch playlist for anyone in the industry wanting to learn more about translucent design solutions in roofing.  

In "¿Qué es el Skypanel? - XIPRE GO," viewers are introduced to the sky panel, described by the marketing department of XIPRE as translucent panels with a cell system that provides them with greater rigidity and lower thermal transmittance, energy savings, and above all, the passage of natural light. The crew also explains the panel's versatility, sharing, “When there is a need for natural light in industrial constructions, this is where the sky panel proves to be the ideal companion.” 

The episode, "Soluciones Translucidas para envolventes arquitectónicas | Ep #04 XIPRE COFFEE" features Elián, XIPRE’s specialist in translucent solutions. Elián shares how translucent design solutions can add an aesthetic element to the architectural envelope of a project. He emphasizes its capability to solve different types of needs that integrate architectural work, making it suitable for a residential project as much as for a mega-project. 

The "Arquitectura Traslúcida - WEBINAR" features two long-term architects at XIPRE, Daniela and Delfina, as they focus on the educational aspect of design, where the Materiality Cycle proposed by the Faculty of Design of the University of Palermo is discussed. These architects offer their insights into translucent solutions and how they contribute to the innovative design and functionality of modern structures. 

Lastly, "Soluciones innovadoras en un proyecto SUSTENTABLE - IDUN (case study)" presents a case study in Rio Negro, showcasing a wind park project developed by Ivan Garcia that integrates clean energy concepts into its design. In the video, Ivan discusses how this project came about and which concepts materialized in the construction. According to Ivan, the project is presented as an emblematic building that emphasizes the terrain and the territory, fulfilling both functional, educational and environmental roles. 

These videos are valuable to watch for the information presented by experts in the industry, demonstrating the practical applications, cost-effectiveness and environmental sustainability of translucent design solutions as a representation of the advancements in material technology and innovation.
