Ušće Tower 2, located in New Belgrade, is a shining example of modern façade technology and represents a significant milestone for the glass industry in Serbia. The tower’s façade system utilizes advanced glass and aluminium components that highlight the capabilities of local and international suppliers.
Cutting-Edge Glass Curtain Wall: Schüco USC 86F V8
The tower features approximately 14,000 square meters of glass façade constructed with the Schüco USC 86F V8 element façade system. This state-of-the-art curtain wall system is factory-prefabricated into large panels, allowing for rapid and precise installation. The element façade provides structural flexibility to accommodate high-rise building movements while ensuring excellent thermal and acoustic insulation performance. This integration of insulated glass units with thermally broken aluminum frames optimizes energy efficiency while delivering the sleek, reflective aesthetics characteristic of modern skyscrapers.
Aluminum and Composite Materials Complementing Glass
In addition to glass, aluminum composite panels play a vital role in the tower’s exterior design. About 950 square meters of Etalbond A2 panels, known for their fire resistance and lightweight nature, are used as accent cladding. The tower also incorporates roughly 4,300 square meters of perforated stainless steel panels. These ventilated panels serve multiple functions: providing sun shading, concealing technical systems, and enhancing façade texture and depth.
Local Industry Expertise: PRIOR PROJECT d.o.o.
The comprehensive façade design, production, and installation were executed by PRIOR PROJECT d.o.o., a Serbian company specializing in high-performance aluminum-glass systems. Leveraging German engineering standards, PRIOR PROJECT ensured that the façade met stringent quality, durability, and performance requirements, marking a significant advancement for the Serbian glass fabrication industry. 
A Model for Future Glass Architecture in Serbia
Ušće Tower 2 stands as a benchmark for glass façade innovation in the region, combining advanced glazing technologies and local manufacturing expertise. It exemplifies how Serbian firms can deliver world-class glass solutions for high-rise developments, supporting the country’s growing presence in the architectural glass market.
