25.01.2022 #AusFenEx19 was an amazing event this year. Technoform Australia & New Zealand enjoy this event immensely and had some fantastic conversations around high-performance glazing. Here are just a few photos of Team Technoform in action.
24.01.2022 What a year 2020 has been. COVID-19 has toyed with the building industry in Australia, but we've still managed to continue with numerous projects that are now regarded as industry-leading in building performance due to thermally broken technology. The photos attached are but a few of the great projects we have been involved with during the year, that have been completed or are close to completion. #WhyAreWindowsSoImportant? #Energy #WholeOfWall #SpecTheEdge #LetsTalkSolutions #BuildingPerformance #BuildingFabric #EnergyEfficiency #Government #GreenBuildings #Speckel #PutTechnoformInside #Technoform #breakmywindowsaus
24.01.2022 We are heartbroken right now for the Islamic community in Christchurch and for all the people of NZ. We offer our sincere heartfelt sympathy and condolences to all of the families who have lost loved ones and our thoughts are with those, who have been injured in these horrible attacks. This terrible loss of life will be felt by one and all, who know how loving and caring the New Zealand people are. It's unbelievable to think that this happened in the most innocent of places, ...a place of worship. Quoting Prince Charles, "This appalling atrocity is an assault on all of us who cherish religious freedom, tolerance, compassion and community." We stand with you and will continue to help rebuild this shattered community. Technoform Deutschland; Technoform North America; Technoform Australia & New Zealand; Technoform Ibérica;
24.01.2022 We'd like to wish a "Happy New Year" to one and all. May 2020 and beyond, bring you all that you wished for. We look forward to working with you this coming year!

23.01.2022 Do you all get the idea now? Simple!
22.01.2022 Finally, the construction industry will start to address some of the big issues that need some serious attention. The #ShergoldWeirReport has been sitting idle since Feb 2018. See Here: https://lnkd.in/fiiMMiU We finally have the Building Ministers Nationally agreeing that the construction industry needs a serious shakeup. See Communique Here: https://lnkd.in/e3r2-Jr Quoting Mic Patterson PhD, LEED AP[BDC] of the Facade Tectonics Institute Material selection & extended servi...ce life are the most effective means of reducing the embodied carbon footprint. Sustainability means durability! #SpecTheEdge Quoting Helen Sanders of Technoform North America, "The durability & suitability of materials needs to be a key factor in the design & specification processes since thermal performance is only as good as the durability of the products & replacing products early just multiplies the embodied carbon." Correct installation & certification are so critical in this process. #Government #Governence #sustainability #energyefficiency #Regulation #certification #LetsTalkSolutions #BuildingPerformance #Glazing #ResidentialBuilding #CommercialBuilding #Wellness #WhyAreWindowsSoImportant? #ThermallyBroken #DoubleGlazed #HighPerformanceGlazing #NCC2019 #SectionJ1point5 #WholeOfWall # #Technoform #Bautec #TGIM #Warmedge #AusFenEx19
22.01.2022 #Technoform is proud to have been involved with such a famous #Seattle landmark, the #SpaceNeedle, helping to secure its safe and energy efficient future for millions and generations of visitors to enjoy the marvel of this structure built in 1962 for the World's Fair. Technoform North America provided our #TGIM #WarmEdge Spacer for all of the new double glazing.

22.01.2022 Addressing the "Edge" of our glazing will have the greatest impact on glazing performance! Have you really thought about what it will take to meet the new #NCC2019 #SectionJ1.5 glazing requirements? Do we understand that this is going to affect the way that we design buildings going forwards? In this article, I discuss the criteria behind the changes & one of the pathways to compliance. (It happens to be the easiest but results in the least amount of glass being used.) ... I also look at the impact that the edge of glazing has on the overall performance of our facades. Using Warm Edge Technology & Thermal Breaks offer us a solution to maintaining a high ratio of glass in our build.
22.01.2022 Expanding on last weeks post, #NCC2019 - What the changes really mean for the #AustralianWindowIndustry particularly for J1.5 Wall-Glazing Construction! Here are the results for Class 3 buildings in Zone 5 when glazed using a curtain wall/spandrel glazing system. There are 4 points noted on the charts. Point 1. This is for a #ThermallyBroken structurally glazed framing system, using a #HighPerformance Low-E argon filled IGU. The new rules will allow a #WindowWallRatio (WWR) ...up to 65% Now let’s look at some Thermally Broken systems. Point 2. This is a good high-performance thermally broken frame, with clear glass IGU. This will allow a #WWR of 45% Point 3. This is a simple thermally broken frame, with Low-E IGU, increases the WWR to 75% Point 4. This is a high performance thermally broken frame with Low-E & argon filled IGU, increases the WWR to 100% Note: Aluminium curtain wall frames do not meet the new rules for this ClassZone combination even when coupled with the most exotic double glazing. There are many variables to consider but to achieve comfortable healthy buildings that occupants enjoy working & living within, specify thermally broken framing systems. In fact, the new rules severely restrict aluminium frames. At Technoform ANZ we have the full investigative report by Inhabit Group. #whyarewindowssoimportants #HighPerformanceWindows #HighPerformanceGlazing #Technoform #TechnoformBautec #TechnoformGroup #TechnoformTGIM #TechnoformANZ #TechnoformGroupANZ #TechnoformBautecANZ #TGIM #TechnoformGlassInsulation #Warmedge #NCC2019 #NCC2022 #Sustainability #Glazing #CommercialBuilding #Design #DesignPhilosophy #BuildingDesign #GreatArchitecture #EnergyEfficiency #Wellness #GreenBuilding, #Retrofit #BuildingPerformance #BuildingFabric #BuildingSkin #AustralianWindowAssociation #FenestrationAustralia2018
22.01.2022 With the utmost respect on this ANZAC Day 2020, here in Australia and New Zealand, amid the COVID19 Pandemic, we would like to honour and pay our respects to the many generations of both men and women, who bravely served under the flags of Australia, New Zealand and those of our Allies. To those, who paid the ultimate sacrifice, to those who have died in all campaigns, we give thanks, for it is because of you, we have the freedoms we treasure today. We pay tribute to you, s...aying thank you and to your families. We think of you often, especially on ANZAC Day. Your ultimate sacrifice will never be forgotten. The Ode of Remembrance is "They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old; Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will remember them. Lest We Forget!" We also remember the fallen of our former enemies, whom we may now consider as our friends and colleagues. War is ultimately senseless. We pray, that we remember the mistakes of the past, and shall we never repeat them!
20.01.2022 Vincent Wardill of Technoform Australia & New Zealand is looking forward to getting home after almost two weeks away on business with his colleagues in Germany with Technoform Deutschland #TCC and #BAU2019.
20.01.2022 Watch AWS Australia's & latest case study with architect Alex Symes of Alexander Symes Architect where he took the legendary Australian Tin Shed and made it #HighPerformance using #ThermalHEART #ThermallyBroken windows. Alex investigates what it takes to thoroughly achieve a high thermal performance rating by validating the effects of innovative technology with new, innovative testing methods to understand how to achieve more sustainable housing. Alex says: "As we strive for ...higher thermal performance buildings to achieve a lower operational cost of living we need to be mindful of airtightness so that the insulation is effective and so that we can manage air and moisture to create a healthy internal environment." #WhyAreWindowsSoImportant? #Energy #UValue #DoubleGlazed #HighPerformanceGlazing #NCC2019 #NCC2022 #BuildingPerformance #BuildingFabric #BuildingSkin #Sustainability #Glazing #ResidentialBuilding #CommercialBuilding #Design #DesignPhilosophy #BuildingDesign #GreatArchitecture #EnergyEfficiency #Wellness #GreenBuildings #TechnoformAustraliaandNewZealand #TechnoformBautec #TechnoformGroup #TechnoformTGIM #TechnoformANZ #TechnoformGroupANZ #TGIM #TechnoformGlassInsulation #Warmedge #AusFenEx2019
20.01.2022 Samantha Anderson of Inhabit recently presented on behalf of Technoform Australia & New Zealand at the #FenestrationAustralia2018 Conference. The one takeaway from the conference was, that the acceptable amount of Glazing allowed and it's performance in buildings & the Australian window industry will change dramatically with the introduction of the new Section J1.5 for #NCC2019. Watch this space to learn how these changes will affect you. #WhyAreWindowsSoImportant? #Thermall...yBroken #HighPerformanceWindows #HighPerformanceGlazing #Technoform #TechnoformBautec #TechnoformGroup #TechnoformTGIM #TechnoformANZ #TechnformAustralianandNewZealand #TechnoformGroupANZ #TechnoformBautecANZ #TGIM #TechnoformGlassInsulation #Warmedge #NCC2022 #Sustainability #Glazing #CommercialBuilding #Design #DesignPhilosophy #BuildingDesign #GreatArchitecture #EnergyEfficiency #Wellness #GreenBuilding #Retrofit #BuildingPerformance #BuildingFabric #BuildingSkin #AustralianWindowAssociation See more
20.01.2022 Have you ever wondered how you can tell the difference between a High- Performance Window apart from a low performing window? Generally, it's extremely difficult. There are windows & then there are #HighPerformanceWindows! as the photo's show below. Looking at the first photo, these two windows look exactly the same. They both have exactly the same IGU glass & the same frame profile. ... The difference is that one is Thermally Broken & one isn't. Can you tell which one is which? The one on the left is Thermally Broken & the one on the right isn't. You can see the differences in the thermal performance from the second photo. Note the temperature difference between the two in the centre of the glass. The Thermally Broken frame is sitting about 12oC & Centre of glass at 18oC, compared to the Non Thermally Broken frame is 7oC on the frame & centre of glass is at 13oC. #WhyAreWindowsSoImportant? #ThermallyBroken, #HighPerformanceGlazing, #TechnoformBautec, #TechnoformTGIM, #TechnoformANZ, #TGIM, #TechnoformGlassInsulation, #NCC2019, #Sustainability, #Glazing, #CommercialBuilding, #Design, #DesignPhilosophy, #BuildingDesign, #GreatArchitecture, #EnergyEfficiency, #Wellness, #GreenBuilding, #Retrofit, #BuildingPerformance, #BuildingFabric, #BuildingSkin

18.01.2022 In this great article, featuring the Australian Window Association's, Gary Smith, Marketing & Communications Manager, realestate.com.au uncovers why every Home ...& Building in Australia needs double glazing - especially if your home is hot, cold, noisy or guzzling electricity which to be honest, is nearly every building. Double-glazed windows can help reduce the transfer of heat, which keeps your home warmer in winter & cooler in summer. This helps to maintain a more comfortable living temperature & reduces the reliance on artificial heating and cooling. Which means, of course, lower energy bills. Image: Shutterstock.

18.01.2022 Dr. Helen Sanders of Technoform North America spoke at Zak World of Façades in Auckland yesterday on behalf of Technoform Australia & New Zealand. Her presentation on the "Thermal Impact On Facades - Spec The Edge" was excellent & got the 400+ attendees really thinking about the edge performance of their glazing in all forms of buildings & facades. Helen captivated the audience with numerous fact-filled slides which really showed the dramatic impact the edge actually has on g...lazing performance. The one takeaway from Helen's presentation is, forget the COG (Centre of Glass) & really focus on the edge & the frame in which you are putting your high-performance glazing. This will dramatically change the performance of your Whole of Window. We would like to thank David Hayes and Thermosash Commercial Limited for helping bring this great event to New Zealand. #ZAKwof #WhyAreWindowsSoImportant #glazing #architecture #energyefficiency #buildingdesign #sustainability #wellness #energy #SpecTheEdge Technoform Deutschland Technoform Ibérica

16.01.2022 Technoform Glass Insulation Germany have been busy the past week at Glasstec. Check out the video here.
16.01.2022 Have you heard of Gannon Fabrications? Most likely not! Chris Gannon has been working for the past 6 years to develop a newly patented product called the "EcoDoor" (using Technoform Australia & New Zealand/Technoform Deutschland Polyamide Strip) to create a "Thermally Broken Refrigerator Door" for commercial refrigeration applications. Chris & his team of professional fabricators & technicians based in Brisbane have been worked hard to develop this product, that will dramatic...ally reduce, if not completely do away with, condensation forming on the frame in warm, humid climates for commercial refrigerators. They will no longer require heating elements for this purpose, due to the separating of the external & internal frames from each other (thermally breaking them). This ultimately saves on running costs by reducing energy usage, which is great for the environment. The EcoDoor will be soon coming to a Woolworths, Coles, Dan Murphy's & BWS near you in the near future. #EcoDoor #energyefficiency #sustainability #retrofit #energymanagement #energysolutions #energysavings #insulation #utilities #ThermallyBroken #environment EcoDoor Website: https://gannonfabrications.com.au/ecodoor/ Vimeo EcoDoor Video :https://vimeo.com/405760741 Vimeo Gannon Video: https://vimeo.com/403224528 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/gannonfabrications.2015/
16.01.2022 Thank you to all of the wonderful glazing industry people who visited the Technoform Australia & New Zealand Team at #AusFenEx19 recently. Hanging out with you was fantastic. Check out some of the highlights of the event in Sydney with the Australian Glass & Glazing Association - AGGA. We are looking forward to the next event.
16.01.2022 Check out the #Technoform Stand from #BAU2019. It was great meeting up with old friends and making new friends over the week. Also learnt what's new in the market place regarding innovation of products within the Glazing Industry worldwide.
15.01.2022 We are involved with a great project that is starting to take shape. It's the Chancellery Building at Monash University in Clayton. Being built by Kane Constructions Pty. Ltd., Engineering by Aurecon lead by Johanna Trickett using Aluminium Industries products. The glazing fabricator is IND Window Fabrications PTY. LTD. Architecture by A-R-M architecture and Project Management by Donald Cant Watts Corke. The brief for the project was that the university would like to incorpo...rate PassivHaus ideologies into their buildings and ultimately reduce energy costs as well as greenhouse emissions. With this project, the curtain wall is structurally glazed & thermally improved using Technoform Deutschland's Edge Protect product. We can't wait to see the finished project.
15.01.2022 The Technoform Insulator Clip has been researched by Jon Davies of Oculus Architectural Engineering Ltd and shows that this could be a viable option for the Australian market as a thermal break for our facades. This has been discussed today at the AIRAH #BuildingPhysics2019 Forum.
12.01.2022 At the heart of Technoform's DNA is sustainability. You could say that we're passionate about it. This is why we continually look to develop new products that do greater good for the built environment. So, hence why it's important in business to be CO2 Neutral. This is why Technoform has partnered with Plant-for-the-Planet Foundation. This is our contribution towards a better world climate In order to contribute to a better world climate, we have ensured that all our transp...orts within Germany, as well as our packaging made of cardboard and wood, are CO2-neutral. We have been able to achieve this through continuous support for tree planting activities. The results that we have achieved are impressive: to date we have planted 19,881 trees in collaboration with the Plant-for-the-Planet Foundation, thus compensating for 1,988 tons of CO2 that have been emitted. Here is the official link to the Plant-for-the-Planet website: https://lnkd.in/dsqyf3M #stoptalkingstartplanting Join in and get the Plant-for-the-Planet App: anyone can plant new trees from anywhere in the world to protect the climate: https://lnkd.in/grrgRBu Watch now the video about the history of Plant-for-the-Planet, which shows how important it is to act and think globally: https://lnkd.in/gF8qTdQ Photo: Plant-for-the-Planet #technoform #edgebondsolutions #sustainability #letstalksolutions

09.01.2022 Helen Sanders of Technoform Group North America plays Devil's advocate with this thought-provoking article about the future of glazing in Buildings. We have only two options moving forwards in Australia with #NCC2019 and then #NCC2022. Go High-Performance Glazing (our preferred option) or reduce the glazed area on buildings. https://lnkd.in/farFT-5... #WhyAreWindowsSoImportant? #ThermallyBroken #HighPerformanceWindows #HighPerformanceGlazing #Technoform hashtag #TechnoformBautec #TechnoformGroup #TechnoformTGIM #TechnoformANZ #TechnoformGroupANZ #TechnoformBautecANZ #TechnoformAustraliaandNewZealand #TGIM #FacadePerformance #TechnoformGlassInsulation #Warmedge #Sustainability #Glazing #CommercialBuilding #Design #DesignPhilosophy #BuildingDesign #GreatArchitecture #EnergyEfficiency #Wellness #GreenBuilding, #Retrofit #BuildingPerformance #BuildingFabric g#BuildingSkin #AustralianWindowAssociation #FenestrationAustralia2018

07.01.2022 What is the U-Value of a window/wall? This article explains all.
07.01.2022 With the #NCC2019 rapidly approaching, we at Technoform ANZ have been looked at what Whole of Wall & Window to Wall Ratio (WWR) really means for Glazing within Commercial Buildings. The dialogue for Section J Energy Efficiency, in particular, J1.5 Wall-Glazing Construction, is changing from an R-Value for Walls & a U-Value for Glazing to a Straight U-Value for Whole of Wall. This will ultimately impact the WWR. This is turning the general understanding of performance on it...s' head. What is the correlation of an R to a U-Value? How much glass will I be able to put into my projects going forward? What performance will this need to be? Here is a Table that highlights the difference and also the first public view of some of the findings from a report that we commissioned. #WhyAreWindowsSoImportant? #ThermallyBroken #HighPerformanceWindows #HighPerformanceGlazing #Technoform #TechnoformBautec #TechnoformGroup #TechnoformTGIM #TechnoformANZ #TechnoformGroupANZ #TechnoformBautecANZ #TGIM #TechnoformGlassInsulation #Warmedge #NCC2022 #Sustainability #Glazing #CommercialBuilding #Design #DesignPhilosophy #BuildingDesign #GreatArchitecture #EnergyEfficiency #Wellness #GreenBuilding, #Retrofit #BuildingPerformance #BuildingFabric #BuildingSkin #AustralianWindowAssociation #FenestrationAustralia2018 See more

05.01.2022 Human Skins = Building Skins Like Human Skin which protects the internal operating organs of humans, so too does the Building Skin of a building. We at #Technoform are constantly looking at ways to increase comfort levels in buildings and balance temperatures passively via the building fabric and facade. Glazing is the element that has the most effect on this and plays such a critical role in helping regulate the difference between the external and internal temperatures. Thi...s article by Mark Silverberg & Helen Sanders of Technoform Group North America explores this subject in greater depth. #BuildingSkin, #BuildingFabric, #BuildingPerformance, #WhyAreWindowsSoImportant? #ThermallyBroken, #HighPerformanceWindows, #HighPerformanceGlazing, #Technoform, #TechnoformBautec, #TechnoformGroup, #TechnoformTGIM, #TechnoformANZ, #TechnoformGroupANZ, #TechnoformBautecANZ, #TGIM, #TechnoformGlassInsulation, #NCC2019, #Sustainability, #Glazing, #CommercialBuilding, #Design, #DesignPhilosophy, #BuildingDesign, #GreatArchitecture, #EnergyEfficiency, #Wellness, #GreenBuilding, #Retrofit, https://www.usglassmag.com//2017/02/human-skins-building-/

04.01.2022 Last week was a busy one for Technoform Australia and New Zealand. It has seen our team sponsor the Mecca Events seminars on "Rethinking Glass at Arup’s office in Melbourne & in Sydney. Presented by Simon Barnes, construction professionals learnt about choices in glass available, how architectural intent influences transparency, reflectivity & colour, how lighting, environmental factors & materials influence glass selection, how glass compares as a sustainable building mat...erial & project case studies. It also saw us at the Building Products Industry Council (BPIC) Building Leaders Brief Industry Summit 2020 at Lendlease in Barangaroo, Sydney where the industry was educated on the moving landscape of product compliance. Speakers like Bronwyn Weir, Chris Bovill, Julia Cambage, Chris Bulmer, Mark Burgess & David Mitchell amongst others delivered fantastic presentations on the changes occurring in the construction industry. #WhyAreWindowsSoImportant? #Energy #DoubleGlazed #HighPerformanceGlazing #NCC2019 #NCC2022 #NCC2025 #SectionJ1point5 #WholeOfWall #SpecTheEdge #LetsTalkSolutions #BuildingPerformance #BuildingFabric #BuildingSkin #Sustainability #Glazing #CommercialBuilding #Design #EnergyEfficiency #Government #Regulations #Wellness #GreenBuildings #Technoform #Warmedge

04.01.2022 With the utmost respect on this ANZAC Day 2019, we would like to pay our respects and say thank you to the families of the many generations of both men and women, who bravely served and died, in all campaigns under the flags of Australia, New Zealand and our Allies. We pay tribute to and be thinking of you on this ANZAC Day. Your ultimate sacrifice will never be forgotten. The Ode of Remembrance is ... "They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old; Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will remember them. Lest We Forget!" We also remember the fallen of our former enemies, whom we may now consider, as our friends and colleagues. War is ultimately senseless. We pray that we remember the mistakes of the past, and shall we never repeat them again.

02.01.2022 Project: Di Bella Cascata, Queenstown Windows: @Altus NZ Ltd, Pacific Thermal Suite (thermally broken) Glazing: Viridian Glass NZ, triple glazing (warm edge spacers) In order to connect the occupants with stunning Queenstown views, the architect has designed this home with an incredibly high window to wall ratio.... With such large windows in a cold climate like Queenstown, conventional aluminium frames and standard double glazing would conduct too much heat and condensate in cold temperatures. Instead, high performance thermally broken frames and triple glazing paired with warm edge spacers were specified. Technoform is proud that both our thermal breaks and warm edge spacers were combined in this multi award-winning project. https://lnkd.in/e-xhjDg

01.01.2022 Ironically the USA & Australia are on similar trajectories when it comes to High-Performance Glazing. USA has ASHRAE 90.1 & Australia will have the new Section J1.5 for #NCC2019. What does this mean for Australian Whole of Wall measurements? What is the acceptable levels of glass in buildings going forwards? How much glass (30%?, 40%?, 55%?, 70%?, 100%?) will we be able to be put into a wall. We know that "it will have to be High-Performance". Helen Sanders of Technoform Grou...p North America discusses how the Americans are going to approach the matter. Are Australian's going to follow the same line or are we going down a different path? Time will tell. Contact Technoform as we believe we have most of the answers to these questions. https://www.usglassmag.com//the-battle-for-the-wall-moves/ #WhyAreWindowsSoImportant? #ThermallyBroken #HighPerformanceWindows #HighPerformanceGlazing #TechnoformAustraliaandNewZealand #TechnoformGroup #TechnoformTGIM #TechnoformANZ #TechnoformGroupANZ #TechnoformBautecANZ #TGIM #TechnoformGlassInsulation #Warmedge #NCC2022 #SectionJ1point5 #WholeOfWall #SpecTheEdge #BuildingPerformance #BuildingFabric #BuildingSkin #Sustainability #Glazing #CommercialBuilding #Design #DesignPhilosophy #BuildingDesign #GreatArchitecture #EnergyEfficiency #GreenBuilding, #Retrofit #AustralianWindowAssociation #AustralianMade
