FV Glassolutions launches free
Planitherm DVD
21st August 2012

Sealed unit manufacturers Chipping Norton Glass, Midland Glass, Morley Glass & Glazing, Quickseal and Southworth Windows are the stars of a new DVD from GLASSOLUTIONS Solaglas, which has already attracted more than 100 views on YouTube in a short space of time.

The DVD demonstrates how easy it is to process and handle SGG PLANITHERM glass – and highlights the business benefits of using the best family of soft coat glasses on the market.

Ian Short, managing director of Morley Glass & Glazing says: “Converting the factory was seamless and within a week of using SGG PLANITHERM we were staggered at how easy it was to process, handle and manufacture the units.”

Eddie Howell, managing director of Quickseal UK says: “In commercial work we use SGG PLANITHERM because it gives a low U value, greater light transmission, greater clarity and is easier to work with.”

Mike Butterick, Marketing Director at GLASSOLUTIONS, says: “As a distributor and processor of the product for well over a decade, we wanted to share our expertise and the experiences of some of our customers with other sealed unit manufacturing customers, so that they too could start processing SGG PLANITHERM so their customers can benefit from selling windows using the most energy efficient family of glasses available today.

“It is essential that the annealed version of the glass is edge-deleted before assembly into double-glazed units to prevent oxidation of the coating edge, but also to ensure secondary seal bond strength.

“The industry recognises now that edge-deletion is actually a very simple, quick but necessary process that doesn’t require complex machinery or extra labour, and this DVD demonstrates it perfectly.”

Glassolutions Solaglas offers its manufacturing customers comprehensive technical, operational and marketing support – including access to the Planitherm Installer Network – as part of its Planitherm Advantage program.
