Eco-compatible technology is becoming the focal point of innovation both as regards environmental protection and economic development. This is why the Fenzi group, a world leader in the production of chemicals for flat glass reprocessing, has decided to concentrate its research activities on energy efficiency and alternative energies. The most interesting new products by the group will therefore be showcased at glasstec 2010. The Glass Alliance exhibition booth, the international network that manufactures everything necessary for producers of insulating glass and which comprises Fenzi, Alu-Pro and Rolltech, will offer a first-hand view of the technology developed by the three companies in this area. Energy saving is also synonymous with thermal insulation for buildings and for this sector, Rolltech has developed the Chromatech range, with Chromatech Ultra, the next generation spacer bar for IG glass, in the lead. Chromatech combines a lower stainless steel part and an upper part in polycarbonate with a low moisture penetration index in a single structure, which ensures significant advantages in terms of thermal insulation. Chromatech Plus, on the other hand, is particularly suited for large and complex IG because of its unique design and technical properties. Fenzi manufactures a wide range of sealants that are essential in optimizing IG glass energy efficiency. At glasstec, visitors will have a close-up view of Thiover polysulfide two-part sealant, which can enable builders to obtain LEED points and certify buildings to the standards of the American Green building rating system. Duralux Solar Coatings will also be at the centre of attention. Fenzi, located in Tribiano (northern Italy), will also have on show its Tempver ceramic paints, including Aquaglass, a line of one-component, water-based decorative paints developed by the company for glass processors who specialize in decoration and are particularly eco-minded. Thanks to their distinctive colour brightness and eco- compatibility of the water-based main ingredient, Aquaglass paints are ideal for use in the interior decoration of offices and homes, bathrooms and kitchens. Two websites www.tempver.com and www.fenzi-aquaglass.com, dedicated to these two product lines, offer direct access to the formulas to confidently obtain the desired RAL colour, thus providing a quick service and even greater efficiency.
