Ariplak® ZenSilver

The newest addition to the Ariplak® coating range by Ariño Duglass, Ariplak® ZenSilver offers architects and designers more freedom than ever to create stunning and unique glass facades.

With 47 percent exterior light reflection and only 6 percent interior light reflection, Ariplak® ZenSilver has a beautiful silver tone on the exterior with a neutral black tone on the interior. This makes it possible to create reflective glass facades without compromising on outward visibility.

ZenSilver can be applied on tempered, laminated and insulated glass. It can be applied in bespoke patterns for exterior and interior applications, creating unique decorative patterns as part of the DecometalReflec range. It can also be used to create bird friendly glass, in standard or custom bird friendly patterns.

HEGLA Taifin Tempering Furnaces

Greater efficiency and automation for tempering furnaces

“Tempered glass, as perfect as glass can be” is what HEGLA-TaiFin aspires to achieve. The company is known for convection technology and closely controllable heating zones with qualities much higher than the industry standard. “We have one of the best tempering furnaces on the market and at GlassBuild, we now want to show what is possible when strong partners work together,” said Teemu Kolka, Manager of HEGLA TaiFin. The optimal bedload is determined with bed optimization from HEGLA-HANIC. For maximum automation, the glass can be put together with automated batch creation from HEGLA – no operator required. Through “de-batching,” the batch can be separated again. Optional quality scanners monitor quality and, in conjunction with the intelligent optimization of HEGLA New Technology, they adjust the furnace recipes if necessary. Thanks to this holistic view, using such a system increases total throughput significantly and saves a great deal of energy.

Zebrano Wood Grain Designs by Alice Direct to Glass Printing

Zebrano Wood Grain Designs have been added to GGI's Alice Direct to Glass Ready-to-Print collection, offering architects and designers a superior alternative to natural wood. Zebrano Expresso, Macchiato, Chocolate, and Mocachino provide the aesthetic of natural wood but without the sanding, straining and ongoing maintenance required. The ceramic frit application makes it ideal for interior or exterior applications. The scale, color and opacity can be customized for a one-of-a-kind finish on an ultra-clear low iron glass or low iron satin etched substrate for an easy to clean, durable surface material.

SunGuard® SNR 50

SunGuard SNR 50 coated glass provides a remarkable low solar heat gain, a neutral silver appearance and stunning neutral reflectivity, providing options for architects to achieve a specific aesthetic and make their designs come alive. 

SNR 50 offers a balance of medium reflectivity and neutral aesthetic with a 48 percent visible light transmission and 0.25 solar heat gain coefficient.

“Our projects strive for a sense of belonging and strong contextual relevance,” explains Matthew Z. Leach, AIA, Principal/Senior Designer, Page. “Glass should contribute to the vibrance of the project while highlighting the adjacent materials as well as the reflected context. It is important that the color rendition of reflection be as bright but also as neutral as possible. SunGuard® SNR 50 does this without appearing too dark or too reflective. It’s a very natural, neutral glass, evocative of more classic modern architectural glazing systems. It is as well suited for reflecting the bright sky as it is for reflecting beautiful landscapes and cityscapes."

By combining the classical, neutral aesthetic both at normal and angular incidence with superior energy performance, this new product presents attractive exteriors architects seek while helping to provide bright, comfortable interiors.
