Glass Canopies

Invisiwall® Glass Canopies

Designed to Meet Your Needs

Invisiwall® Glass Canopies help accentuate your architectural design without sacrificing beauty and protection. Each system can be custom-tailored to your design requirements and custom engineered to meet your specifications, including glass, point-supported fittings, shop drawings, and PE samples.

Canopy Glass Fabrication

A full selection of clear, low-iron, acid-etched and tinted glass substrates are available to be heat-treated and laminated for your application. Laminated glass is available with Trosifol® SentryGlas® structural interlayer. SentryGlas® interlayer is recommended for exposed-edge applications. The interlayer offers the unparalleled advantages of improved clarity, increased structural integrity and better edge stability over that of PVB. A five-year warranty on edge stability for SentryGlas® interlayer is available on a project basis. A translucent white interlayer or ceramic frit silk-screened pattern can be used to reduce both glare and the appearance of dirt on the canopy surface. Heat-soaking also is available to help minimize spontaneous breakage due to nickel sulfide inclusions.
