GripGlaze
Bendheim’s GripGlaze provides a no-drill, compression-based mounting solution for installing large glass canopies. The system’s low-profile clip is a precisely engineered aluminum fitting that mounts directly to steel structures, and eliminates the need for notches, holes, or specialized tools.

Solarban Champane
This addition to Vitro’s Solarban line—a collection of low-E glass—offers warm champagne tones. The coating can be applied to a low-iron substrate or clear glass, and will soon be made compatible with a range of tinted-glass options. It is available in sizes up to 130" × 240".

This insulated glass unit, which incorporates an advanced thin glass by Corning as its center lite, is remarkably light weight without sacrificing thermal performance.
