Edgetech: "Architects around the world are at the forefront of efforts to make our built environments as sustainable as they can possibly be. We're delighted to be playing a part in bringing so many boundary-breaking green buildings to life - and are confident that Super Spacer® TriSeal ™ Premium Plus will ensure the Curve's thousands of glass units will continue performing to the highest standards for many years to come." comments Managing Director Chris Alderson.

Sheerline: "Our new white gloss was a direct result of customers telling us what they wanted from an aluminium system. All of our components are made by us, here in Britain, which means that we have full control of the supply chain and we keep all profiles, in 12 stocked colours. We offer very short lead times, just five days, to fabricators, so they, and their installer customers, can keep up with increasing demand from homeowners. This is revolutionary in the aluminium sector." says Roger Hartshorn, CEO of Garnalex.

SWISSPACER: " Our spacer bars are already well known as a warm edge for saving energy in winter. However, they also offer advantages in summer: they keep the heat of summer outside and, as a cool edge, contribute to much less energy having to be used for cooling buildings." says Frank Junker, Sales Manager at SWISSPACER.

Edgetech: "Edgetech have played an integral role in us reaching that objective, and their advice and support has been invaluable, particularly when it came to EN1279 testing. Passing Parts 2 and 3 shows customers around the country that we’re able to offer the high-performance heritage IGUs they need to help older homes achieve modern energy efficiency standards. " comments Slenderpane Technical Sales Manager Dave Parker.

HWL Trade Frames: "It's not about volume manufacture. It's about the opportunity that it gives our customers to win business at point of retail." explained Graham Howatson, director.

Kenrick: "Opportunist burglary is becoming increasingly common with figures from the Office for National Statistics showing that 64 per cent of burglaries in England and Wales happened while residents were at home. People need to be vigilant and guard against this invasive crime, so we want to prompt everyone to think about how vulnerable they are to sneak-in thefts and to take measures to secure their homes properly." Explains: Steve Williams, sales and marketing director

Titanium Dioxide - The Facts

Powder coatings that contain more that 1% titanium dioxide will have to carry new warning labelling due to a change in classification. The new labelling requirements will be implemented by powder manufacturers by October this year, but what does this mean for applicators of powder coatings?

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a naturally occurring mineral used as a bright white pigment in powders used for architectural powder coating. It generally exists in three phases: anatase, brookite, and rutile, the rutile phase is primarily used in pigments for powder coating. Only 5% of the 2,328 colour shades of the RAL system are produced without titanium dioxide, which equates to approximately 119 pigments, so TiO2 must continue to be used for certain colour formulations in powder coating.

Back in March 2020 the EU designated that titanium dioxide is a category two, suspected carcinogen by inhalation, under the CLP (Classification, Labelling and Packaging) Regulation EC No. 1272/2008. The new hazard classification is for titanium dioxide in powder form and powder mixtures containing more than 1% titanium dioxide particles with an aerodynamic diameter ≤ 10 micrometers. …»
