Architectural Walls and Partitions
Architectural Walls and Partitions
Providing a depth and profile not found in conventional glass wall applications, TGP’s translucent channel glass systems can create eye-catching architectural walls and partitions through engaging textures, lighting and shapes.
Architectural Walls & Partition Solutions
Channel glass systems consist of self-supporting, U-shaped cast-glass channels mounted in an extruded aluminum perimeter frame. The versatile segments are available in varying colors, translucencies, and textures, and are cast in up to 23-ft lengths. They have the desirable ability to create architectural walls and partitions that diffuse large amounts of light while obscuring vision. With their unique linear form, TGP’s channel glass products can be used as much to contribute to the art of building design as to diffuse daylight.
Products
Pilkington Profilit™
Translucent Linear Channel Glass System
Self-supporting, "U"-shaped cast glass channels and an extruded perimeter frame make up this decidedly contemporary wall that obscures vision but allows light to pass through.
Pilkington Profilit™ OW (Low-Iron)
Translucent Linear Low-Iron Channel Glass System
The channel glass’ lower iron content allows for greater light and solar transmission with a less green appearance than is typical of standard glass.
Pilkington Profilit™ Insulation
Insulated Channel Glass System
The addition of lightweight insulation with exceptional thermal performance and increased energy efficiency promotes soft, even light dispersion, reduces unwanted noise and resists condensation.
