Asahi Glass Company (AGC) is expanding its PairPlus series of ecoglass energy-saving window glasses by releasing a model suitable for windows on mid and upper levels of buildings.??
The PairPlus Air is made by filling dry air in the air layer between two sheets of glass, instead of argon gas, as with existing products. The components have wind pressure resistance up to 2800 Pa, making them suitable for installation in rooms on the mid and upper levels of buildings where wind pressure is strong.
The company will also launch thick-glass models (18mm), suitable for use in glass-fronted premises.
