Clipping and Musings – June 2017 – Helen Duval

Without doubt, these have to be some of the toughest times and challenges we have faced recently across the UK. With high rise living now clustering the skyline today, not just in London but across the UK, it is deeply distressing to see the horrors brought about by the tower block fire in Kensington this month. In today’s world of stringent health and safety standards, surely we have the ability to prevent this? Passive safety clearly failed but just how could the fire spread so quickly through Grenfell Tower? There is speculation that the cladding on the outside of the […]

EXCELLENT MARKS FROM HEGLA/BYSTRONIC RANGE

As trade legislation regarding industry accreditations and product marking continue to reflect the high standards of the glazing sector, there is continual pressure on processors to ensure that their quality standards are accurate, particularly as end users are now keenly aware of their necessity. As glass processors are answerable not just to their customers but to end users alike, Hegla developed new technologies that help manufacturers accommodate all legislative measures and which further improve output. Consequently laser marking technology was introduced as it helps to speed up production and eliminate confusion during the manufacturing process. Increasingly, customers are stipulating laser […]
