Fenergic Group, a renowned player in high-performance windows for multiplexes, high-rise buildings, and multi-family homes, has made a landmark investment in its manufacturing capabilities. Keen to meet rising market demands, especially those driven by stricter energy regulations in Quebec, the company installed Glaston’s TPS® insulating glass (IG) line and RC Series tempering furnace.
TPS® Line: Speed, Consistency & Automation
The Glaston TPS® line replaces manual glass handling and spacer application with a highly automated process. Previously, about 50% of Fenergic’s IG production was done by hand, leading to inconsistencies in quality and thickness. Now, fully automated spacer application from a reel ensures precision, dramatically reduces labor demands, and accelerates turnaround times, helping Fenergic triple its production speed while freeing staff for higher-value tasks.
RC Series Furnaces: Optimizing Quality & Throughput
Adding Glaston’s RC Series tempering furnace marked a new chapter for Fenergic. Operators were integral to its commissioning and testing. Impressively, full operation began just four days after training, six months ahead of schedule. With enhanced mechanical strength, optical quality, and speed, the furnace supports Fenergic’s ambitions to scale tempered glass output from 10% to around 60%.
Strategic Impact on Production & Workforce
These upgrades have reshaped Fenergic’s production strategy. A compact team of five operators now efficiently runs both lines, with reduced physical strain and increased capacity. Triple-glazed units, once only 10% of output, now account for 50–60%, targeting over 80% in the near term. 
Conclusion: A Sustainable Leap in Glass Innovation
With industrial automation at its core, Fenergic has transformed its production line into a high-speed, quality-assured, and future-ready system. Their strategic embrace of Glaston technology positions the company as a leader in sustainable architectural glass solutions.
