The 2011 Global Glass Handbook from Pilkington, one of the leading global brands in innovative high performance glass and glazing solutions, has been published. The document provides an easy-to-use reference for architects and specifiers. The Handbook is organized into benefit-led categories providing comprehensive technical information on the Pilkington global range of architectural products. Jon Phillips, marketing director, underlines the value this latest global glass handbook delivers: We offer one of the widest range of architectural products globally, an increasing number of which are already manufactured or sold worldwide. Some of them will however be less familiar to architects and specifiers. Our new Global Glass Handbook presents all our products in one convenient place, helping our audiences choose the products best suited to their applications.
