SGC ONLINE TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Dear Design Professional:
 
Syracuse Glass Company is a manufacturer of architectural glass and aluminum products with ONE HUNDRED YEARS of service to the Upstate New York Construction community.  That’s quite an achievement! Thank you for contributing to our success by continuing to incorporate into your projects what we think is the most interesting building product made by man – GLASS! And remember to think of us and Tubelite for all your custom aluminum entrance requirements.

I’m happy to offer you our services to help you evaluate the many choices that face the design professional working with our industry’s products.  We’re an involved member of the Glass Association of North America (GANA), the National Glass Association (NGA), and the Syracuse CSI Chapter, so we’re well informed about developments in our industry. We’d be pleased to offer DESIGN ASSISTANCE, SPECIFICATION REVIEW to help avoid confusion for section 8 contractors, PLANT TOURS, SAMPLES, or AIA LEARNING CREDIT COURSES.

 

We look forward to being of service.

Sincerely,



John Dwyer, CSI
President Syracuse Glass Company

Why should you consider using products made by our firm?
 
LESS DISTORTION – Today’s high performance tinted and solar control low “e” glass frequently requires heat strengthening in large vision areas where traditionally regular annealed glass was the norm. Our STATE-OF-THE­ART CONVECTION tempering furnace produces glass with less roller wave distortion, bowing and warping.  You’ll notice the difference!
 
HIGH QUALITY - We’ve been making insulating glass since 1973, and it’s still performing.  We have the commitment, the right balance of automation and craftsmanship, and the third party certifications that you can count on.
 
VERSATILITY – As a family owned independent regional fabricator, we can select from the best products offered by all the float glass manufacturers.

FAST RELIABLE SERVICE – We measure our lead time in days, not weeks, and deliver material on our own specialized transports designed for Upstate New York weather conditions.  We’re relationship oriented as opposed to strictly project focused.  Repeat business is critical to our success.

COORDINATED APPROACH – With the combined expertise in the manufacture of TUBELITE® custom aluminum entrances as well as tempered and insulating glass ON SITE, we provide a well managed, compatible package.

GREEN PRODUCTS – We make products with world class energy performance and local availability
