Manufactured by your friends and neighbors in North America.
When AGC made its commitment to North America more than 25 years ago, it meant a significant financial investment in the US and Canada in the form of new plants, new equipment, and thousands of new jobs, and access to products and technology worldwide.
Float Glass Manufacturing
Today, AGC North America owns and operates five state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities on the Continent, where raw materials such as silica, soda ash, and limestone are transformed into beautiful, flat or patterned glass – much of which will be treated and transformed further to achieve specific aesthetics, functions, and performance criteria.
Float Glass Coating Facilities
At these facilities flat glass may be treated with coatings, either through chemical vapor deposition (CVD) or magnetron sputter vacuum deposition (MSVD) processes to make glass more energy efficient. In fact, AGC is the only domestic glass manufacturer that produces both. Here, glass may also be tempered, protected, etched, painted, tinted, or undergo other combinations of processes to perfectly match an application or end use.
AGC North America’s most recent investment in a new state-of-the-art glass coating line ensures that we’re poised to supply North America with the complex glass products of today, as well as the innovative products of tomorrow.
Residential Window and Door Fabrication Facilities
AGC supplies raw and coated glass (both pyrolytic- and sputter-coated technologies) to the residential window and door industry. However, through our two residential fabrication facilities, AGC Glass North America uniquely supports window and door companies outsourcing needs by providing custom cut sizes, glass tempered to specification, as well as fully-fabricated IGUs with a wide variety of spacers and other in-glass options.
Glass Centers
AGC Glass Centers offer commercial contract glazing solutions for the local markets offering a wide range of glazing products and systems for the interior and exterior of commercial spaces.
