Understanding the role glass plays in modern construction has just got easier with a handy, quick-glance product guide from Pilkington Building Products UK.
Available for the first time in this format, the company has produced a four-page guide featuring 43 individual products across ten benefit led categories.
Glass is becoming an increasingly common feature in the present day urban landscape and it performs a number of important functions within buildings as well.
This guide is a valuable, timesaving and quick reference guide to the company's entire range of products.
As each product has been placed into a benefit led category it offers specifiers, installers, contractors, merchants, processors and glaziers alike, an instant reference to the virtues of each product.
Its aim is to make the specification of glass a whole lot easier.
Each product has been separated into different groups in accordance to what it has been designed to do.
The categories have been divided into solar control, thermal insulation, fire protection, noise control, safety, security, self-cleaning, decoration, glass systems and special applications.
A benefit-led symbol has been created for each product category, with each appropriate product then listed alongside.
To simplify the process even further, a description of each product then follows to give readers a clear explanation as what each glass is designed to do.
With Pilkington Building Products UK responsible for many of the technical developments in glass over the years, it is entirely fitting that the company has produced an introductory summary to the visual, aesthetic and practical benefits of its unrivalled product range.
