Super Spacer Premium Continues to Deliver Proven Performance

ADVERTISEMENT Even after 30 plus years on the market, Quanex’s Super Spacer® Premium warm edge spacer continues to stand up to the toughest demands for insulating glass (IG) production. The silicone based, all-foam formula offers manufacturers a premium energy-efficient and sustainable solution for high-volume production of dual- and triple-pane IG. As a true dual seal warm edge spacer line, Super Spacer Premium uses a high performing acrylic adhesive for its structural seal and is backed by a moisture vapor seal for maximum insulation properties. Adding a required hot-melt butyl or comparable low permeable sealant results in an unbelievably durable double seal that provides for amazingly consistent seal quality.

Privacy glass technology

The innovative Lyto technology provides complete blackout in just a few seconds for windows, doors, privacy glazing in bedrooms and bathrooms, skylights and entry doors. The solution also has potential in buildings where control of daylight and the comfort and privacy of occupants is particularly important, such as healthcare and educational facilities.  

The technology is sleek, adaptable and the shade is completely contained within a double or triple insulating glass unit. With no mechanical parts, this new shade solution isn’t subject to the mechanical failures. The shade is activated in seconds by passing a small current through the conductive layers creating an electrostatic attraction between the ultra-thin shade and the glass surface. 

Guardian Glass has licensed its patented Lyto technology to Privacy Glass Solutions. The product is expected to be available from Privacy Glass Solutions by the end of 2024. Initially, the product will be available in one color combination, white/off white. Additional color combinations to follow after launch.

Insulating profile

The insulbar LI insulating profile is now available in North America. Compared with standard profiles made from solid polyamide, the lambda value of insulbar LI is improved by 30% through a manufacturing process in which the polyamide material is foamed during extrusion. Existing window systems can be upgraded seamlessly with insulbar LI, requiring no system or process changes, and the same visual appeal and quality as traditional polyamide is maintained.
