Cardinal Glass Industries launched Quad LoE-452, a true four-layer silver coating with solar control and the lowest emissivity within the Cardinal Glass family of low-E coatings, say officials. Quad 452 comes standard with Neat+ glass, creating a combination of superior performance and naturally cleaner glass. Quad 452 has a solar heat gain coefficient of 0.22, a visible transmittance of 52 percent, and a 2.30 light-to-solar-gain ratio.

Sudden Impact is a new patented method of turning IG production into dual-purpose security laminated glass. Once an insulating glass unit is produced and selected for security glass, the IG is horizontally filled with a two-component polyurethane resin material to the desired interlayer thickness for protection required. A computer-controlled meter-mix pump and dispensing machine is the heart of this method of creating an inter-layer for protection. U-shaped IG spacers and PU flexible foam spacers are top candidates for this system.

Details: This vinyl product family features a 4 9/16-inch master frame and 1 ¾-inch stiles and rails; it is available in ¾-inch dual and 1 1/8-inch triple insulating glass units. Grille options include historically accurate 5/8-, 1 1/8- and 2 1/8-inch SDL Bars (putty bead and ovolo sticking). Exterior casing options include 5/4- by 3 ½-inch flat, 4 ½-inch banded and staff bead brickmould. Hidden tilt latches and unfinished wood-based interior are available, as are 17 standard exterior colors. 

Best-selling Features: Interest has been growing in this product since builders and architects first saw the 3D modeled frame parts, says Mathews Brothers. The sash members set into a 4 9/16-inch frame lend the look and feel of wood. Thermal performance and range of U-factors also contribute to its popularity.

Details: Made for residential and commercial windows, doors and skylights, eGlass products eliminate the need for blinds or any other window treatments by giving users the ability to control privacy. Glass can be switched from clear to frosted and can manage heat, light and sun glare via variable tinting. The products are laminated with a dynamic interlayer so there are no moving parts, and can be controlled automatically by an environmental stimulus or electronically via a wall switch, voice command or integration into an AV system. Each eGlass product is custom-produced to client specifications and can be provided as pre-wired panels or as finished frame units ready for installation. Most eGlass runs on 120v AC and can be incorporated into interior and exterior door and framing systems.

Best-selling Features: Innovative Glass attributes the high-tech glass’s ability to control privacy and eliminating the need for window treatments as top reasons for its popularity. When powered, the glass is transparent and when unpowered, the film inside the glass frosts to obscure the view. Natural light still passes through the glass in the privacy setting. The company also says the glass can accommodate odd-shaped, hard-to-shade windows, as well as oversized glass areas.
