Leading glass<\/strong><\/p>\n

Founded in 2007, sedak, the glass fabricator in Gersthofen, Germany, is the world\u2019s leading manufacturer of oversize insulating and safety glass. sedak supplies glass units in dimensions up to 3.2m x 16m: processed, tempered, laminated, printed, coated and cold bent. The company was founded by Gerhard Seele and Siegfried Gossner. sedak has developed to a medium-sized and now independent corporation with 150 employees and a subsidiary in New York. The company is providing glass for spectacular construction projects all around the globe. The core capabilities are the lamination of glass, edging, and the company\u2019s know-how of producing glass components with additional functional, and decorative elements. That knowhow has been deriving from sedak\u2019s intense research and development.<\/p>\n

With its large size glass units, sedak opens up extraordinary architectural design possibilities combined with economical advantages for fa\u00e7ade constructors, architects, and contractors. sedak\u2019s production has been optimized for glass up to 16m long; all finishing steps are handled in-house e.g. with the new, fully automated insulating glass line that produces insulating glass units up to 102mm thick. The enormous formats are available as safety or insulating glass. All products are obtainable colored, printed, specially treated for a thermal or sound insulation, as well as for sun protection. The glass units are delivered worldwide. sedak products are used for fa\u00e7ades, glass roofs, balustrades, and stairs as well as for custom-made products, and ships. In the ship industry they can be installed in pool floors, walkable skylights, the hull glazing, rails or the ship\u2019s floor. sedak, the world\u2019s only full supplier for a glazing in this large size, sees itself as a partner for architects, contractors designers, and fa\u00e7ade constructors.<\/p>\n

Several architectural mile stones live on the creative power offered by glass manufactured by sedak. Outstanding references are e.g. the St\u00e4del Museum in Frankfurt, the Tottenham Court Road Station in London, the Lincoln Center and the Apple Cube, a sensational all-glass construction, in New York as well as numerous premium flagship stores around the world.<\/p>\n
