New Edgetech TruSieve Desiccant proves better in BSI test

Date: 12 February 2015

Edgetech UK, a Quanex company, has made it even easier for glass manufacturers to make better IGUs with the launch of top quality TruSieve 3A molecular sieve desiccant.    TruSieve desiccant has a high humidity adsorption capacity to deliver long term performance within the insulated glass unit.

To see just how good TruSieve is, the British Standards Institute was commissioned to carry out comparison tests against desiccant from leading suppliers. The test results showed the initial moisture content of TruSieve is as much as 38 percent better and moisture adsorption capacity is up to 18 percent greater. This makes TruSieve one of the most stable spacer bar desiccants on the market.



Edgetech already supplies a range of component products to make glass units more efficiently. They include Super Spacer and TruPlas warm edge spacer systems, TruPlas SDL and Bostik Hotmelt sealant.



“As their IGU solutions partner we wanted to offer customers a desiccant that would give optimum performance without additional costs,” says Alan Fielder, Edgetech’s Director of Sales and Marketing. “It also means manufacturers can order all the components they need to make a glass unit in one delivery from us.”



TruSieve desiccant is now in stock and available in both standard and millibead sizes. Over the next few months more products will be added to Edgetech’s growing range of solutions for IGU manufacturers.
