2 C CM As an industry leader we follow one vision:. Since 1984 we have strived to constantly improve our optical. We remain committed to investing in new technologies, increasing our capabilities and creating new partnerships. Our brands, Tecno, ESWindows and Alutions, are fully integrated in a state-of-the-art 3 million-square-foot facility on the northern tip of South America where we employ more than 5,000 people. We sell to more than 25 countries under a single-source warranty. Our record-breaking technologies, processes and commitment to growth as an industry leader allow us to supply for every use, including tempered, laminated, insulating, screen-printed, bullet-resistant and curved. Our heat-treated is processed under the PPG Skyline Quality Program, which limits heat-treated flatness to a new standard. We are answering the demand for jumbo-sized, more efficient and that makes new architectural designs possible. All of these capabilities are supported by a professional team that ensures on-time deliveries and competitive prices.

3 LAMINATED High-performance laminated provides durability in in meeting multi-functional applications such as as safety, security, sound, solar energy performance and ultraviolet screening, as as well as as hurricane, earthquake and bomb blast resistance. Our laminated achieves all all this while preserving the the aesthetic appearance of of the the. Because it it exceeds the the standards in in today s market, our our laminated has has become our our star product. We We are are the the preferred supplier of of laminated for for high-rise construction in in South Florida, where we we have prevailed despite its its strict building codes. We We are are certified by by the the SGCC and PVB fabricators to to provide all all types of of hurricane-resistant (large missile or or small missile impact). We We can can provide several layers of of lamination reaching up up to to 44 inches in in thickness, in in sizes up up to to 129 by by INSULATING Insulating is is ideal for for buildings that require efficient climate. Inherently, insulating increases a a window s thermal performance by by reducing the the heat gain or or loss. Thus it it results in in window and door systems that are are more energy-efficient and buildings that are are more cost-effective. This type of of can can also reduce noise transmission while protecting building occupants from the the weather. In In order to to offer a a multi-functional product that can can meet most any any customer demand, curved, laminated, silk-screened and spandrel can can all all be be insulated following standard fabrication processes. MONOLITHIC Our monolithic consists of of a a single lite lite of of that is is formed using the the float manufacturing process. Monolithic can can be be enhanced through additional fabrication processes for for insulating capabilities, design enhancements and added strength. HEAT TREATED Heat Strengthened and Tempered State-of-the-art heat-treated whether heat-strengthened or or fully tempered is a a Tecno specialty. Our heat-treated is is fabricated using the the latest technology and is is known for for its its minimum roll roll wave (lower than ASTM standard) and its its excellent optical qualities. This allows our our customers to to display and enjoy the the highest the the least distortion possible. Heat-treated is is able to to support higher mechanical or or thermal stresses than that is is not not heat treated. The result is is reduced breakage risk risk from external agents or or temperature change. Applications Heat-treated is is commonly used in in the the construction industry when maximum safety products are are required. Used in: in: - - Floating facades - - Building lobbies - - Offices - - Shower enclosures - - Sliding doors - - Project out out windows - - Fixed windows - - Storefronts - - Partitions - - Handrails brochuretecno_2017_1_mc_r7_prss.pdf 1 5/10/17 1 5/10/17 10:44 10:44 AM AM

4 NEW TECHNOLOGIES THAT MAKE ANY PROJECT LOOK BETTER Air flotation technology by Tecno TECNOAIR TecnoAir surpasses all existing standards by breaking records both in terms of distortion and iridescence. Thanks to Glaston and its air flotation technology, which replaces the traditional roller-type tempering furnaces, TecnoAir achieves that has been beyond reach until now. TecnoAir is the result of a completely new approach to heat treatment. It is not just an improved tempered flat, but a revolutionary innovation that changes some of the orthodox rules of tempering, taking to a new level and creating completely new products. KEY ADVANTAGES - Record-breaking. - No rollers no roller marks. - Practically wave-free, for both clear and. - The best iridescence values in the industry provide a quantum leap in architectural. - The first true opportunity to produce the thinnest safety in the world. - Highest surface compression levels for thicker (4 mm over 200MPa!) % energy savings in thin production (2-4 mm ). TecnoAir is the absolute leading technology in the market when it comes to low distortion and iridescence values, achieving optical that is similar to that of float. One of the greatest advantages of TecnoAir is that there are no roller marks on the, thanks to the use of air flotation technology. Bent by Tecno TECNOBEND Curved makes buildings flow The sleek and sophisticated appearance of offers unparalleled style, keeping it among the top material choices for everything from buildings to trophy cases. However, the newest design trend takes the modern appeal of and adds a twist. Curved is increasingly used to add movement and dimension to traditionally static structures, and is among the fastest growing trends across the globe. Every year, the demand for custom grows as architects and designers specify more curved or bent for more dramatic design solutions. Such applications include spiral staircases, skylights, elevators, stadiums, zoos, bridges, curtain walls and hundreds of others uses. Bent can make great architecture extraordinary. Superior capability, high tempering TecnoBEND bent is available and tempering in architectural sizes. It is also possible to bend and temper a coating against the rollers. Bending is performed through gravity bending processes or by pressing the against rollers to assure high optical. We process flat in the bending section of the tempering line or a separate chiller. Beyond new fabrication methods, curved also has benefited from availability of more robust and interlayers. While at one time would warp when was bent, new proprietary technology allows us to curve while still maintaining its patterns and effects. The and interlayers now available open up a number of new options for curved. 0-50%: visible marks %: marks can be easily seen Ø in 25 0 Isotropy value UNACCEPTABLE NOT GOOD 70 TOLERABLE 70-90%: normal market %: VERY GOOD GlastonAir TM EXCELLENT in in Ø in Glaston IriControL TM Maximum Sizes - four pieces, full circle.
