    Contact: Sophie Weckx +352 28 111 210 [email protected] Contact: Siria Nielsen +31 164 317 036 [email protected] Guardian Glass launches new float line at Czestochowa, Poland plant New, advanced facility will serve growing Eastern Europe demand Bertrange, Luxembourg, September 22, 2020 – Guardian Glass completed its first ribbon pull at its second float glass facility in Częstochowa, Poland to help meet the growing demand for high performance coated and fabricated glass products in Poland and throughout Eastern Europe. The first pull of glass completes the plant’s startup, which began with the groundbreaking in 2018 and led to the start of the plant’s technologically advanced new glass coater on July 6. “The new float line is the largest in the Guardian family of float lines,” explains Guus Boekhoudt, Guardian Glass Executive Vice President. “We’ve implemented an innovative new furnace design with high efficiency combustion systems in order to provide products that meet the stringent quality requirements of our customers, while minimizing both the energy used for production and emissions from the process.” The plant, hosting two float lines, two coater lines and a lamination line, produces Guardian ExtraClear® float glass, Guardian ClimaGuard® low-emissivity (low-E) and Guardian SunGuard® solar control coated glass products as well as laminated glass for residential and commercial applications. By engaging suppliers to provide both proven and innovative solutions to meet production and quality requirements, Guardian Glass took a progressive approach to the design for the new float line, underlining Guardian’s long-term commitment to its customers to be the preferred supplier of glass solutions.

    Contacts: Amy Hennes Dan O’Mahony Guardian Industries Schwartz MSL 248-340-2109 415-512-0770 [email protected] [email protected] GUARDIAN INDUSTRIES AND SOLADIGM TO DELIVER ENERGY EFFICIENT DYNAMIC GLASS THAT “SWITCHES ON DEMAND” Collaboration to Bring Next Generation of Architectural Glass to Building Owners and Architects Auburn Hills, Mich. and Milpitas, Calif. – May 10, 2012 – Guardian Industries, one of the world's largest manufacturers of glass products, and Soladigm, a manufacturer of highly energy-efficiency dynamic glass for buildings, announced today that the companies are working together to market and sell Soladigm Dynamic Glass in the commercial buildings sector. The partnership positions Soladigm for global adoption of its dynamic glass product and provides Guardian with an innovative architectural glass technology for its customers. Guardian will incorporate Soladigm’s Dynamic Glass product into its SunGuard® advanced architectural glass portfolio of solutions with the introduction of a SunGuard EC product line. Guardian SunGuard will also integrate the new product into its Build with Light® marketing program, an initiative that connects architects, glaziers and select fabricators with its product line. Soladigm Dynamic Glass utilizes electrochromic technology to switch from clear to tinted on demand, and enables control of heat and glare in buildings while providing greater comfort, uninterrupted views, and natural daylight. Soladigm Dynamic Glass can significantly reduce heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) energy usage in commercial buildings, in particular during times of peak load. “Dynamically tinting architectural glass will substantially enhance building energy efficiency and occupant comfort.
