Polish window and façade manufacturer MATPOL is preparing to launch a new insulating glass production line featuring advanced Glaston TPS® technology at its production facility in Skawina, Poland. The investment marks the first time MATPOL has implemented Glaston’s TPS® insulating glass manufacturing technology, strengthening the company’s capabilities in high-performance façade glazing.

At the core of the new line is the UNIT’ASSEMBLER, an automatic assembly, gas filling and pressing robot designed to manufacture complex insulating glass units with high precision and efficiency. The system enables the production of four-sided stepped insulating glass units with maximum dimensions of 3,300 × 7,000 millimetres, making it suitable for large-format façade glazing applications commonly used in contemporary architecture.

One of the key technological highlights is the ability to produce IG units with a bottom edge of the fourth step ranging from 0 to 200 millimetres, a capability that provides greater design flexibility for curtain wall systems and stepped façade structures. The system also supports a maximum glass weight of 400 kilograms per metre, enabling the handling of large and heavy glass panes required in modern building envelopes.

Prior to delivery, representatives from MATPOL visited Glaston’s facility in Neuhausen-Hamberg, Germany, to conduct a comprehensive factory acceptance test of the equipment. The tests confirmed the performance and reliability of the new line, with MATPOL representatives expressing strong confidence in the expanded production possibilities it will bring.
