The renovation of the Museo de Zaragoza, located in Zaragoza, Spain, has been successfully completed, featuring a major upgrade in its interior glazing and fire safety systems.

As part of the architectural transformation, approximately 200 m² of Clario EI60 fixed partitions were installed, enhancing both the building’s passive fire protection strategy and its spatial quality.

High-performance fire safety with architectural transparency:

The Clario system used in the project is engineered to meet EI60 fire resistance standards, providing 60 minutes of integrity and insulation performance. This ensures effective fire compartmentation by preventing flame penetration and limiting heat transfer across glazed partitions.

This level of protection is particularly critical in public and cultural buildings, where life safety, regulatory compliance, and unobstructed circulation spaces must be carefully balanced.

Designed for maximum light and minimal visual disruption:

Beyond its fire-rated performance, Clario is developed for architectural applications that demand clarity and minimal visual interference. The system enables:

Edge-to-edge glass integration using ultra-clear 4mm joints
Seamless execution of a continuous fixed glazed partition system with uninterrupted glass surfaces
High natural light transmission, supporting open and visually connected interiors

These features make it especially suitable for museum environments, where preserving visual openness is essential to the visitor experience.

Project impact:

In the Museo de Zaragoza renovation, the Clario system supports a design approach that prioritizes both safety compliance and architectural sensitivity. The result is a discreet yet highly technical installation that integrates seamlessly into the building while meeting strict fire safety requirements.

This project highlights how modern fire-rated glazing systems can enable architects to maintain design intent without compromising on protection standards.
