New Glass & Glazing Products for Winter 2019
Turnkey
This interior-glass wall system by Bendheim allows fast, easy installation of an array of panels, including art glass, in sizes as large as 120" x 48", without drilling or adhesives. It can be mounted using the company’s patented 1" clips. Panel options include integrated LED lighting.
Bird1st
Guardian Glass expands its glazing options with Bird1st, a UV coating, which, like the company’s bird-friendly frit patterns, helps to prevent collisions. It is also less visible to humans because it is a film instead of being etched. The subtle striped pattern can also be specified with the company’s SunGuard low-E coatings for added energy efficiency.
AviProtek
Walker Glass Company added four new designs to its AviProtek line of bird-friendly solutions. Three etched dot patterns were developed for use in guardrails, rainscreens, and insulated glass. A fourth pattern features multidirectional lines with a proprietary coating that has UV-enhanced reflection. Each option comes with a 10-year warranty.
Hurricane Sliding Doors and Windows
Sky-Frame has designed a system of large, frameless sliding-glass doors that can withstand the most severe level of hurricane impact testing, including water and high-wind resistance. Individual panels measure 91" wide x 138" high and feature a slim 1⅛" frame.
The latest glass and glazing products protect birds, resist hurricanes, simplify installation, and provide a clean, unobstructed view.
