Performance. Aesthetics. Economy. Architects and designers gain advantages in all three with a new product in April 2017 called Fusion, the result of collaboration by two industry leaders in glazing materials and structural systems technology. Duo-Gard Industries Inc. and 3form LLC will provide complete turnkey systems and solutions for canopies, transit shelters and structures, building facades and other exterior applications, as well as interior architectural accents.The new Fusion line integrates 3form translucent polycarbonate glazing panels with Duo-Gard’s engineered structural systems to create advanced aesthetic possibilities in 92 color options, three finishes and three thicknesses. 3form materials provide different looks tailored to project goals. But materials are just that without a framework. It all starts with a systems approach, and Duo-Gard has those systems. The collaboration gives the designer additional degrees of freedom with hundreds of options. Duo-Gard’s expertise in exterior applications enables its sales, engineering and installation staff to package a product that includes a total turnkey solution from the ground up. Initial focus for Fusion will include Duo-Gard’s Sleekline canopy system.3form’s polycarbonate panels combine design flexibility with unparalleled aesthetics and strength that glass cannot match. Duo-Gard’s engineered systems provide high-performance structural support. The turnkey fusion package, marketed by Duo-Gard, offers complete cost-effective solutions. www.duo-gard.com.
