The Vision Control® and Pilkington Pyrostop® glazing assembly has been UL fire-rated for doors, windows, transoms and sidelights, and provides superior patient privacy and safety within healthcare facilities.
TGP recently opened an office in Dubai, UAE, to better serve the market demand for its products in the region.
“Hospital construction in the Middle East demands the latest and best in healthcare design techniques and building products,” said Jean-François Couturier, CEO of Unicel Architectural. “We believe the Vision Control® and Pilkington Pyrostop® fire-rated glazing assembly is the best design choice for patient privacy and safety. We are pleased to work with TGP to provide the opportunity to supply our award-winning product in this growing market.”
Vision Control® is a patented, cord-free and hermetically sealed glass unit combining louvers within glass that can be customized to virtually any shape for interior or exterior glazing applications. Pilkington Pyrostop® is a fire-rated and impact safety-rated glazing material that blocks radiant heat for enhanced life safety. The combined product delivers fire-ratings of 45, 60 and 90 minutes and meets a need for UL-listed privacy control systems in healthcare environments.
