MAXI-CURVE
WHAT IS MAXI-CURVE?
With enviable production facilities and a wealth
of experience GGI offers MAXICURVE, one of the most versatile ranges of curved
glass products available from the World Class of glass processors.
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
Architects and designers increasingly demand
products to fit their concepts for novel dimension in space and light that
typically must be environmentally friendly and cost effective.
HIGH VOLUME & EXACT REPLICATION
The escalating requirement for curved glass also
dictates producers must be capable of high volumes with exact replication.
AFFORDABLE
For those designers wishing to make a building
feature with a small volume of curved glass ‘no mould’ requirement or ‘zero
tooling’ makes MAXI-CURVE affordable.
MAXI-CURVE is a family of curved architectural
glass products that meets those demands.
WHY MAXI-CURVE?
Maximum economy option in producing curved glass
with minimum energy and zero tooling.
- Maximum speed. Tempered curved glass produced
almost as fast as flat tempered.
- Maximum reproducibility with no
moulds needed for tempered curves.
- Maximum performance U values
available in curved glass Insulating Glass Units from the option of curving the
most advanced low emissivity glass types.
- Maximum sizes feasible in the
architectural market.
- Maximum variety of processing add-on
options.
