Next Generation Neoceram™ Heat-Resistant Glazing Offers Enhanced Aesthetics

Smooth Surface and Less Color Meet Design Needs of Today’s Hearth Appliances

Snoqualmie, Wash., March 8, 2010 — Technical Glass Products (TGP) announces the next generation of Neoceram™ heat-resistant ceramic glass featuring less color and a smoother, texture-free surface for hearth applications. The industry-leading glazing is free of surface waves and distortions traditionally apparent in ceramic glass. This improved product quality was developed specifically to address the larger glass areas that are becoming common in contemporary hearth designs. www.fireglass.com

Neoceram enables hearth appliance manufacturers and dealers to provide their customers with safe, high-efficiency gas- and wood-burning stoves and fireplaces, while maintaining the latest designs. Neoceram ceramic glass can withstand continuous temperatures up to 1,292° F—nearly three times the heat resistance of tempered glass. It is ideal for use in high-efficiency heating appliances and cannot be broken by heat during typical usage.

Neoceram has exceptional transparency and an unparalleled surface quality. It is available in bent, painted, or mirrored options, as well as with colored ceramic frits.

“After more than thirty years of setting the industry standard, we understand that matching the quality of our products to new design developments is key to the satisfaction of our customers. We’re thrilled to help them add to people’s overall enjoyment of the hearth experience,” says Jeff Razwick, director of business development for TGP.
