The Winpro team from Formtek Group had an incredibly successful week at GlassBuild America 2023 in Atlanta, GA. Our team had the pleasure of meeting numerous professionals from the windows and door industry and showcasing the Winpro Screen Express SS. The show was definitely the busiest that we've seen since we've been attending GlassBuild!
We met with both familiar faces as well as potential new partners who were excited to see Winpro at the show this year. We are thrilled to see positive word of mouth about the Winpro Screen Express spreading throughout the industry, including an awesome feature on social media by Window + Door Magazine.
Charlie Burgess, our Sales Application Engineer and all-around Winpro guru, spoke with Door and Window Market Magazine about the Screen Express SS, explaining how the machine can produce a standard window screen in as little as 18 seconds, far outpacing hand assembly speeds for our customers. GlassBuild 2023 was a fantastic opportunity for us to demonstrate the capabilities of the Screen Express SS live and firsthand for attendees.
According to GlassBuild, the 2023 edition of the Glass, Window & Door Expo was the largest in more than a decade, featuring 481 exhibiting companies and occupying 188,300 net square feet.
The event drew more than 8,700 participants as it celebrated its 20th anniversary. GlassBuild 2023 included participants from all 50 states, plus the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, and attendees from Canada and 65 other countries.
Some exciting sessions at GlassBuild 2023 included the 17th NGA Glazing Executives Forum, the Annual Construction Economic Outlook presented by Connar Lokar of ITR Economics, sponsored by NGA in recognition of its 75th anniversary, Building Business and Community through DEIB, Mental Health and Suicide Prevention, Women in Glass and Fenestration: Flexibility and Gender Diversity, and Need-to-Know Code and Regulatory Updates.
We look forward to seeing everyone at next year's event in Dallas, TX from September 30 - October 2, 2024!
