Glass Production to Begin Soon at New POLFLAM Factory

Construction of POLFLAM’s new production and warehouse complex in Tarczyn is being currently finalised.
The production infrastructure, considered to be the most state-of-the-art in Europe, is undergoing testing at the moment. Specialised machinery, equipment and tools for the new plant were supplied by leading manufacturers such as FOREL, Mappi, Bottero and MC DIAM, with the ERP software system provided by FeneTech. The general contractor, CFE Polska, efficiently carried out the construction project following the design-build method.
Along with the combined 15,000 m2 production floor and warehouse , the office area (630 m2) was also opened for use. Outdoor space totalling over 8,000 m2, including access roads, car parks and truck loading areas, has been completed.
The new factory will begin full operational status within the next few weeks. Thanks to the new investment, the production capacity for POLFLAM’s fire-resistant glass will nearly triple.

Satin fire-resistant glass – a novelty in the POLFLAM product range

Satin glass is characterised by its delicate matte finish producing a translucent effect. Developing our new POLFLAM product, we have successfully implemented new solutions to overcome technological barriers. The satinated side of the glass panel faces the inside of the glazing unit and is in contact with the fire-resistant hydrogel interlayer. Therefore, it is not exposed to dirt or to potential scratching.

Modern Glass Partitions at “Świata Szkła” Conference

In June, specialists from POLFLAM took part in the conference “Modern Glass Partitions – Key to Building Comfort”, which had been organised by the editors of “Świat Szkła” (Glass World) monthly magazine.

The conference served as an exchange forum for expert knowledge of standardisation regulations regarding the use of internal glazing in buildings. One of the topics discussed was fire resistance testing and classification of glazed partition walls.

FIRE ACADEMY

With the pandemic-related restrictions being lifted, we are gradually relaunching our training activities – in Poland and abroad. More and more dates are being fixed for events that had to be postponed.

Last autumn, the FIRE ACADEMY 2019 training sessions took place in Ghent, Brussels and Liège, organised by the Belgian branch of ALUPROF in cooperation with POLFLAM. At this event, specialists from these two companies and representatives from key Belgian building trade institutions – ISIB, AGORIA, WTCB and Fire Forum – discussed fire safety in the construction industry with a focus on fire-resistant glazing.
