Warm Edge spacers are a more advanced alternative designed to address the shortcomings of traditional spacers. Warm Edge spacers employ materials with lower thermal conductivity, such as structural foam, silicone foam, or composite materials, which significantly reduce heat transfer compared to metal spacers. By minimizing thermal bridging, Warm Edge spacers enhance the insulation properties of the IGU, contributing to improved energy efficiency and reduced heating and cooling costs.
Furthermore, these spacers often incorporate advanced sealing technologies to enhance the durability and longevity of the IGU, reducing the risk of condensation and moisture infiltration. Overall, Warm Edge spacers represent a technologically superior solution for enhancing the performance and longevity of Insulated Glass Units.
Fenzi supplies IG unit manufacturers with the most extensive range of traditional, warm-edge and hybrid spacer bars.
