Swisspacer's warm edge spacers have been among the best on the international market for 25 years. To mark its anniversary, the Swiss company is presenting a new image and a new logo.
Swiss whisky lovers Rinaldo Willy and Pascal Mittner have chosen a very special place for their production: the mountain station of the Corvatsch cable car. Today, the highest distillery in the world is located there. Insulating glass with warm-edge spacers from Swisspacer also allow the best views into the distillery from the outside.
Francis Cholley has been Managing Director of Swisspacer since March 2022. After one with the company, he gives a positive assessment of the company's performance - and looks forward to the future with confidence. Sustainable products remain a key topic for the future.
Super Spacer can lay claim to some world premieres in facade technology solutions. Here are some very spectacular examples in museum spaces.
The trend for colour does not stop at the flexible spacer for IGUs. For a preview of what the people at Edgetech will be offering this year, read here and/or go visit them at BAU Munich in April.
We’ve been her before: In 1973, a global energy crisis had already directed focus to the energy efficiency of buildings. With the Thermal Insulation Ordinance of 1977, single-pane glass was banned, coated insulating glass quickly became the standard and the Uw value dropped substantially.
The new Swisspacer Ultimate Pro combines energy efficiency with optimal processing, according to the manufacturer's developers. With a new material composition, the hollow profile is more elastic and easier to process - with the accustomed stability of the spacer frames. Here are the details.
Window installation at 2,244 metres also places particularly high demands on the products. Several superlatives apply to the mountain station of the Karwendel cable car, and the window installation was also particularly challenging - but with illbruck sealing components, the elements could be installed quickly.
The German Bundestag is getting new offices for members of parliament. The new building consists of wooden modules clad with a colourful glass facade. The glass elements were supplied by Glas Marte. Here are the details.
In Canada's megacity Toronto, one of the city's most interesting and largest construction projects is currently under way: The new, sustainably planned CIBC Square.
In multi-pane insulating glass, a warm edge is an edge seal in which the spacer between the panes of glass is made of materials with low thermal conductivity.
H.B. Fuller | Kömmerling now offer for the first time a system solution for Loca glass elements with Clear Edge technology. Here you can find out what is behind the new process, which enables liquid lamination of laminated glass without a visible edge seal.
In insulating glazing, the edge seal (more commonly known as the spacer - because it keeps the individual panes of an IG unit apart) consists of aluminium, stainless steel or plastic profiles as well as solid plastic compounds.
The thermoplastic spacer Ködispace 4SG from H.B. Fuller | Kömmerling was awarded with the ASC Innovation Award. Here you can read how the warm edge spacer for insulating glass convinced the jury.
Following the launch of the Super Spacer T-Spacer SG spacer system for automated processing, Edgetech/Quanex now presents the manual version for structural glazing elements and XXL formats.
