Edgetech at fensterbau/frontale 2008

Date: 2 March 2008

Edgetech is using the signs of the times for further expansion. The discussions on energy conservation are gaining momentum, offering the perfect opportunity for innovative, energy-efficient products.

It therefore goes without saying that Edgetech will be represented again at this year’s fensterbau/frontale exhibiting its range of Super Spacer® products in Hall 6 / Stand 6-313.

Due to the ever increasing requirements from the German Energy Conservation Act the demand for Super Spacers® in particular is growing. These are used, for example, in high quality insulation glass and facades.

Edgetech is ideally equipped for its further expansion. Last summer production of the spacers got underway in Coventry, UK, for the first time. Not only did this considerably increase the supply volume in the European market, it also enormously reduced the distance from production to the customer.

There is also good news from the parent company in the USA: Edgetech I.G. has been listed by "Inc. Magazine" as one of the 5000 fastest growing companies. Proof that Edgetech is establishing a range of high quality products on the market.

But it is not just their heat insulation properties that set Super Spacer® products apart. Other features include:

• easy processing, even in triple glazing

• wide range of automation options with all major insulated glass machine manufacturers

• excellent UV resistance, durability and aging resistance

• maximum flexibility in shaped and decorative panes

• unlimited use with argon/krypton filling and LowE coatings

• globally recognised certifications

Edgetech Super Spacers® make both automatic production and special applications, such as curved insulated glass or fire prevention applications, child’s play.

Edgetech will be presenting the material properties and areas of application for Super Spacer® and Super Spacer® TriSeal™ spacers at fensterbau/ frontale 2008 in Hall 6 / Stand 6-313.
