— Brent Ehrlich
Finding the top Greenbuild products among 900 exhibitors is no easy task. This week we introduce you to our favorite windows from the show.
Greenbuild expo floors are typically chaotic and crowded and so vast that it is difficult to find the innovators among the throngs of people, glaring LED signage, and innumerable booths. This year's Greenbuild in Toronto had almost 900 exhibitors spread out over two expo floors separated by a significant walk, which made the search that much more challenging.
Fortunately, I enjoy a good challenge--and the exercise--and I was rewarded by finding some interesting products destined for GreenSpec. For this installment, let's take a look at some windows.
Read the rest of the blog to see what Products Editor Brent found, including R-20(!) quadruple-pane windows, A high-performance window retrofit, Cost-competitive triple glazing, and Thermochromic self-tinting panes.
