YOUR GLASS INDUSTRY PEERS HAD A LOT TO SAY ABOUT THE SHOW. HERE’S SOME OF THE FEEDBACK WE RECEIVED.

Many of our customers came, and we also met many new, high-quality potential buyers interested in our specialty glass products and our ‘see what glass can do’ custom fabricated.” - Richard Balik, executive vice president, General Glass International, Secaucus, NJ

“Even if it was a smaller scale, all attendees were absolutely focused on improving their business and business relationships. All of them showed up with specific interest and demand...it was very effective and exciting for our team! - Florian Doebbel, business development manager, Facades, Sika Corporation, Lakewood, NJ

“GlassBuild America is a chance to meet and learn something from other people. The last two days I met many good people with something to say about our industry and the current business environment.” - Tom Whitaker, president, Mr. ShowerDoor, Stratford, CT

"We were so busy the entire show. Thank you for putting on such a fantastic event." - Sofia Bower, Director of Operations, SPH Global LLC, Houston, TX
