Warm edge – Profile bars of the future

May 28th, 2015. There are different approaches to thermally improved glass edge bond: hollow profile bars (“rods”) made from materials with low thermal conductivity, flexible foam spacers on coils or thermoplastic material from drums. You can find an overview of the presently offered “rods” in my latest article in issue 5/2015 of GLASWELT here, including a glimpse at the future of warm edge (Article is in German language).
