Glazing invention unveiled at London landmark

UK firm, English Architectural Glazing, has unveiled its unique SYSTEMSTAX invention, which is set to transform the marketplace for frameless glazing solutions.

UK firm, English Architectural Glazing, has unveiled its unique SYSTEMSTAX invention, which is set to transform the marketplace for frameless glazing solutions. The SYSTEMSTAX design is an innovative concept which provides a frameless solution where glazing panels are held in place by specially designed and engineered clamps and literally 'stacked' one on top of another. The new method replaces the traditional and expensive method of drilling holes through the glass units and supporting them on a separate structure.

EAG chose the London landmark, Camden Lock Market, to be the first building to put the revolutionary SYSTEMSTAX into practice.

EAG won the £1.7m contract to provide total envelope façade treatment including glazing, curtain walling, windows and brickwork for the building and was awarded the deal by Stanley Sidings .

English Architectural Glazing designed the concept of SYSTEMSTAX at its headquarters in Mildenhall, Suffolk, and had the clamps produced at a specialist casting and engineering company in India.

Managing Director, Simon Gladwin, said: 'We are very excited by SYSTEMSTAX and for such a well known venue as Camden Lock Market to be the first ever building to use the product.

SYSTEMSTAX works like no other glazing system, it is an entirely new concept that will become an industry leader and an essential piece of equipment for anyone in the glazing and curtain walling business.
