Instrumental in Washington University’s School of Law Anheuser Busch Hall renovation is Super Sky Products that manufactured and installed a custom dome skylight, spanning 80 feet by 85 feet over the previous outdoor space. Shielding against weathering, aging and pollution, Linetec finished the skylight’s aluminum framing in a revere gray color using 70 percent polyvinylidene fluoride coating, providing durability, according to the company. Linetec’s environmentally friendly finishes captures and destroys paints’ volatile organic compounds as well as offers long-lasting performance to reduce maintenance and costs, according to the company.
