All architectural glass fabricators may start out the same but that's where any similarity ends.
It's what each fabricator brings to your project that makes all the difference.
From aesthetics to strict environmental and energy specifications, to critical budget and delivery requirements, our input can make a difference.
The fact is, our selection of innovative architectural glazing options combined with specification assistance and technical expertise can help make your vision a reality.

Insulating and laminated products both offer a variety of configurations and can also be combined into insulating laminated units.
Once you've selected a specific configuration, be sure to explore each component that goes into fabricating it.
Viracon has a vast selection of coatings, glass substrates and other components.
You will want to select the most appropriate options for your application before developing a glass specification.
In addition to the components needed to fabricate a glass type, there are a multiple enhancements available to further customize your glass selection.

Colors displayed are meant to provide a representation of actual color.
Color is affected by light and reflectivity and therefore cannot truly be matched electronically online.
Colors displayed should not be substituted for color matching with actual glass samples.
Please order a sample to ensure you are pleased with your Viracon selection before ordering glass for your project.
Viracon's solar and optical performance data is center of glass data based on the National Fenestration Rating Council measurement standards, calculated using Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory's (LBNL) WINDOW 7 software.

Insulating glass consists of two or more plies of glass enclosed by a spacer.
The most common insulating glass unit is constructed with two plies of glass and one sealed air space.
This configuration is also known as a dual pane or double pane insulating glass unit, however it is commonly shortened to insulating glass or IGU.
At Viracon, insulating glass units are sealed with a primary seal and a secondary seal of silicone.
Insulating units are designed to absorb stress on the unit caused by thermal expansion and pressure, provide a barrier to water and moisture infiltration, provide a gas-tight seal to prevent loss of any specialty gas fill and create a barrier that reduces condensation.

Insulating Laminated Glass provides the solar controlling properties of an insulating unit along with the safety features of the laminated inboard component.
This allows the flexibility to design with hundreds of combinations of tinted glass, high-performance coatings, silk-screen patterns and pigmented interlayers, together or alone.
In addition, Insulating Laminated Glass enhances acoustical performance, ultraviolet light protection, and the laminated component is designed to remain integral in the opening should glass damage occur.
