Solutia and Windoworld Work Together to Meet Hurricane Protection Demands

St. Louis-based Solutia Inc. has announced it is working with Ontario-based Windoworld Industries, a manufacturer of windows and doors for residential and light commercial projects, to offer code-approved, hurricane-protection products that feature KeepSafe™ laminated glass.

Windows and doors made with KeepSafe glass, according to Solutia, are certified, code-approved and have passed Florida's building code requirements. Windoworld offers high-end vinyl windows, which employ a unique structural framing system with fusion-welded corners and a dual sealing system.

"Our partnership with Solutia is a perfect fit," said Jay Modha, president and founder of Windoworld. "The architects and designers we work with demand a superior product offering, and both Solutia's KeepSafe Max and Saflex interlayer for commercial applications deliver the impact resistance required to meet Florida's stringent building code requirements. We've been readily able to pass the hurricane testing requirements by utilizing high quality interlayers and our proprietary steel rod framing system."
