Glassex And GP&T See Pilkington Take A Stand
13 February 2008Having a huge presence at Glassex last year sponsoring the Conservatory Design Competition generated a wealth of interest in the exemplary Pilkington Activ™ self-cleaning glass, seeing Pilkington Building Products committing to taking stand space for 2008…and this was further enhanced by the addition of the Glassex sister event GP&T into the new format.

Boasting a range of glass products that provide a multitude of benefits that work to enhance the environment and comfort for people in both commercial and domestic buildings, attendance at the newly dubbed ‘G’ show comes at an important time in Pilkington’s ongoing marketing plan with sales steadily increasing for Pilkington Activä™ and the introduction of Pilkington energiKare™.
So what can visitors expect to see?
The latest addition to the Pilkington Activ™ family, Pilkington Activ Neutral™ will be on show. Neutral in colour, this self-cleaning glass has solar control properties and is an alternative option to the company’s popular Pilkington Activ™ Blue. Also on show will be the new energy efficient insulating glass unit, Pilkington energiKare™. Designed to meet the growing demand to reduce energy loss from homes, the Pilkington energiKare™ scheme enables forward looking window companies to add value hence profitability. The company’s professional sales team will also be on hand to answer any questions on the diverse product range, and to discuss the high performance insulating glass units, Pilkington Cervoglass™, a range of shaped glass units ideal for conservatory roofs and side frames.
Commenting on the company’s attendance this year, Pilkington Building Products marketing manager, Julia Berkin said: “The show was very successful for us last year; choosing to sponsor the much coveted Conservatory Design Competition was the right move for us and the interest in the Pilkington Activ™ range of products was incredible. This year, the combination of Glassex and GP&T is really going to attract the right people through the doors…hence we have selected some of our latest key products to exhibit, coupled with Pilkington energiKare™, our recently launched energy efficient IGU licensing scheme, and not to mention the opportunity to show the new Pilkington corporate identity…our attendance is sure to be beneficial all round.”
If you are interested in seeing the very latest in flat glass technology then a visit to stand number Stand 4-C65 is an absolute must.
