Guardian Industries Corp. has recently produced a video telling the story of the company’s two-decade presence and ongoing activity in the Middle East.
The video,“From the Sand: Guardian Glass in the Middle East”, tells how and why Guardian Glass is providing products and services for these booming urban areas.
“Guardian develops the perfect products for the region – one of the most unforgiving climates in the world – that really take into account what the local architects are trying to achieve, instead of just picking out products from other parts of the world and seeing what fits,” says Wissam Kazzaz, director of marketing, Middle East, Guardian Glass.
There are three Guardian Glass float glass plants in the region: GulfGuard, the first float glass plant in the Middle East, launching in Al Jubail, Saudi Arabia in 1995; Guardian Ras Al Khaimah in the United Arab Emirates, which launched in 2006; and the Egyptian Glass Company, located outside of Cairo. These plants ship to more than 40 countries.
Guardian recently installed a state-of-the-art sputter coater in a facility adjacent to its float glass plant in Al Jubail. This important investment allows architects in the region to build more energy-efficient projects by incorporating high performance glass, company officials report.
Guardian has produced a series of videos celebrate its culture and its commitment to creating value for its customers and society. They can be found on the Guardian website https://www.guardian.com/en/media/media_landing_page.html.
