TRIPLE GLAZING AT HALF THE COST
The team at Dual Aspect Glass tell all on
how they have invented, patented and
successfully bought to market an innovative
new decorative glass for composite
doors…
Dual Aspect Glass has now firmly established
itself as pedigree supplier of decorative glazing
for composite doors. It has now formed
successful supply partnerships with many of
the key door manufacturers. It is the firm
belief of the company that many purchasers
of decorative door glass are hungry for
something different and above all are looking
to save money and be more competitive in a
particularly tough climate.

Jeremy Town, Managing Director, of
Dual Aspect comments, “We have put an
incredible amount of resource and investment
to ensure that our decorative door glass is
of an unsurpassed quality. We have recently
subjected our resin bevels to a 10 year UV
cycle and our product remains clear and does
not yellow. We have also recognised the need
for innovation and want composite door
suppliers to know that we are the company
that not only will bring something new to
them but will also beat prices on many of their
current decorative styles including resin bevel,
triple glazed, lead and bevel, fusion and screen
prints.”
The company now has a wealth of exclusive
decorative designs being promoted in the
market, ensuring that their door customers not
only have something different but furthermore
they are able to develop increased loyalty
from their customers. So often one composite
door brochure looks the same as another,
many times with the same components and
glass. For the majority of customers now
purchasing from Dual Aspect this was not
a satisfactory arrangement, with most being
enormously frustrated that margins were being
compromised and unique selling points no
longer appeared to exist.
Mr Town elaborates, “We take the time to sit
down with prospective customers and dissect
specifically what kind of exclusive package
will best maximise results for them in the long
run. Often great savings alone can be realised
on existing glass styles but we are keen to look
at new ideas with them and often can come
up with totally new concepts to give them an
edge.”
Such innovation includes RAL colour
match decorative glass, where selected bevels
or areas of a decorative design can be exactly
matched in colour to the door. This means for
the first time revolutionary decorative glass
designs are being produced in Duck Egg Blue,
Chartwell Green, Grey and indeed any RAL
match required. To ensure a perfect match
Dual Aspect Glass also offers a complete spray
system for in house spraying of the composite
doors known as ‘Doorshield’. The system
is of the highest quality and binds to the
surface of the GRP door slab. The impressive
combination of these two new products is a
‘must see’ for any user of composite doors.
Perhaps topping the crown of the Dual
Aspect Glass portfolio is the triple glazed

product named after the company itself, ‘Dual
Aspect’. Similar to a resin bevel this new and
patented glass replicates the effect of ornate
and crystal cut bevel glass and fusion style
glass at a fraction of the cost. The technology
uses sophisticated new tooling techniques
to produce a crystal clear polyester based
decorative pane that is glazed between two
outer panes of toughened safety glass.
Mr Town expands, “We have now
successfully bought to market a new triple
glazed decorative glass that is a top seller
for our customers and is half the price
of imported triple glazing. It enables our
customers to compete in an increasingly price
sensitive sector with a quality product that not
only sells well but is backed by a supplier 10
year UV warrantee.”
Town concludes, “Our new triple glazing
really gives composite door suppliers not
only the opportunity to get the edge on
competitors but also to be different and
improve margins. We would ask any
composite door supplier to let us quote them,
be it resin bevel, triple glazed, fusion or screen
print. We simply will give you better prices,
quality service from UK factories and new
products to give you a market advantage.”
