Kolbe Forgent

A Midnight or Bronze film can be applied to Forgent Series products with a Glastra exterior and interior. This film utilizes a pigmented acrylic base technology that reduces heat absorption and resists fading. A profile lamination process permanently bonds the film to the Glastra material, enabling it to withstand the harshest of conditions – from extreme heat to extreme cold. And because the film has a very low surface tension, typical dirt, debris – even paint – can be removed from the surface with mild soap and water. Forgent Series window frames * and sash feature AccuForge™, an innovative miter joint technology. This state-of-the-art nip welding process creates a stronger air and watertight seam with a smooth, high-end finish. ™

Forgent Series windows and doors feature EPDM gaskets in the glazing system as well as between the operable sash and frame, to seal the joint and create an air and watertight seal. Similar to those used on commercial windows, cars and airplane doors, they also keep noise out, for a quieter, drier, more comfortable environment.

All materials are subject to some level of expansion as temperatures fluctuate. Forgent Series Glastra material is less affected by these changes, with a lower expansion rate than many composite products, and less than half the rate of vinyl products.
