Interbuild Promotes New Products for FGI

Investment in a stand at Interbuild has been declared a success by Float Glass Industries (FGI), the UK's largest independent glass distributors. The sales team has returned from the Show with an impressive number of enquiries for products launched at the Show and for the company's existing glass range and processing services.

One of FGI's main objectives at the Show was to promote its new Everseal IG - the UK's first high performance gas-filled commercial IG units. ‘Visitors to the stand were very interested in the technology behind these products and were keen to find out more,’ says FGI Director, Dawn Offland. The Everseal IG range features Thermo Plastic Spacer warm edge technology, which offers optimum heat insulation and reliability.

FGI was equally keen to present the huge decorative potential of Decoran, its new 100% recycled ceramic glass, and sister product Structuran for exterior applications. Dawn Offland continues, ‘Interbuild was an ideal opportunity to show these fascinating products in a variety of displays. They combine the best attributes of glass and natural stone with sustainability - an important consideration in today's building industry - and we received some very positive feedback.’

FGI's overall impression of the number and type of visitors at this year's event was generally very good, concludes Dawn Offland. ‘Apart from Sunday, which was quiet for everyone, we were busy throughout the Show talking to a mix of architects, specifiers and building contractors. We definitely achieved our main aims of establishing the Everseal IG brand name and developing new opportunities for Decoran and Structuran. Interbuild is a great opportunity to meet those involved in all aspects of construction and we're already looking to book a bigger stand next year.’
