黑料专区Build on Trends: Architectural Glass and Glazing

Architectural glass continues to expand in size, and since the pandemic, in applications. Industry leaders see continued relevance for the aesthetic, and protective, qualities of glass in architectural building. 鈥淲e know how people respond to light and interaction, and that鈥檚 the real value of glass,鈥 says Tim Nass, vice president of national sales, Safti First. Glass allows people 鈥渢o have a level of privacy and security from a spatial standpoint, but the transparency allows people to feel a level of connection.鈥

The top trends in architectural glass and glazing, according to GlassBuild Connect exhibitors:

  1. Large sizes
  2. High-performance
  3. Multifunctionality
  4. Virus protection
