Because experience counts. We’ve been making glass for more than a century, along with some of the industry’s most trusted and proven IG components. In fact, it’s likely that many, if not all, the components in your IG units come from one of our plants.
PPG also has a history with IG units. We’ve been making finished IG units for commercial and residential window manufacturers for more than 40 years, including an extensive operation in Canada that continues to serve a broad range of customers throughout that country.
PPG also invented the Intercept® Spacer System, which you know as the world’s most durable, proven and reliable "Warm-Edge" spacer system. Currently in use in more than 1 billion Intercept units, the Intercept Spacer System is the top-selling product of its kind in North America.
And when you consider the advantages, it’s no wonder. Our patented U-shape design allows the spacer, not the sealant, to flex in response to temperature changes, making sealer failures virtually non-existent.
The Intercept Spacer System’s "warm-edge" technology is also a crowd-pleaser with homeowners, not just because of its durability and superior insulating strength, but also because it provides the clear sight lines they prefer.
