STV® technology: fewer complaints, lower costs and easier installation

Order windows with glass bonded using STV® technology and take full advantage of the possibilities offered by modern insulating glass units. You will facilitate your team's work, reduce the risk of damage, decrease the number of complaints, and your customers will be more satisfied.

Profit from STV® even before installation

A modern insulating glass unit is an incredibly durable and rigid window element that offers much more than just thermal and acoustic insulation. Bonding the glass using STV® technology brings immediate business benefits, such as:

• lower purchasing costs – you can eliminate steel reinforcements, which significantly increase prices
• fewer defective deliveries – it will be less common for windows to suffer damage during transport
• easier compliance with standards – with STV®, it is easier to achieve large, stable constructions and small windows with high thermal insulation.
  

Glass bonding makes your team's work easier

The practical benefits of STV® technology appear at every stage of the investment.

Safer storage and easier installation

Sashes using bonded glass are more resistant to torsion and deformation. Storing them in sub-optimal conditions is less risky, and maintaining the correct geometry ensures a smooth installation process.

Better stability during wet trades

Conditions during wet trades require windows to remain in a tilt position for many weeks. This can cause them to sag and function improperly on the day the project is handed over, creating extra rework for the installation team. STV® reduces the risk of this phenomenon.

Fewer complaints and service call-outs

Typical complaints reported by users of new windows rarely concern the profiles themselves – they most often relate to the operation of the window. The use of STV® technology improves the efficiency of transferring forces to the hinges, limits window sagging and thus reduces the number of service visits related to hardware adjustment.

Installation teams also appreciate that the elimination of steel reduces the weight of the window.

Powerful new sales arguments

Thanks to constructions with bonded glass, you also receive two important arguments with which you can convince your potential customers:

• STV® is an additional burglar resistance – the bonded glass is resistant to a popular burglary method consisting of drilling through the glazing bead and pushing out the glazing, which a skilled criminal is able to do in less than a minute on an unsecured window.
• glass bonding guarantees the smooth operation of large windows – large PVC windows often require frequent adjustment due to their weight. The bonded glass reinforces the entire sash and lowers its weight, ensuring that additional service visits are not necessary, and users are exceptionally satisfied with their reliable windows.
  

STV® Seamless implementation

When ordering S9000 PVC windows, choose the STV® glass bonding option. That is all that is needed to implement this technology. It does not entail any restrictions, and even replacing a damaged pane is not significantly more complicated than the traditional approach.
