June 29, 2011 – Edgetech I.G. announced that Millet Industria de Vidrio
in Merida, Yucatan, Mexico, recently completed installation of the first
automated Super Spacer line in Latin America. The fully automated
Bystronic line enables Millet to increase capacity to meet a growing
demand for high-performance insulating glass in the commercial market.

“Architects are not only using more glass in projects, but they are
creating more complex designs,” said Miguel Millet, commercial director,
Millet Industria de Vidrio. “The new Bystronic line helps us simplify
the manufacturing process while delivering efficient, high-quality IG to
our customers.”
 
Millet runs both Super Spacer T-Spacer and Super Spacer Standard on the
new line. Edgetech’s sales team worked closely with Millet through
spacer choices and product development.
 
“It was exciting to see the first automated line installed in Latin
America,” said Roberto Becerril, Edgetech’s regional sales manager in
Latin America. “The team at Millet is world-class, and we look forward
to a long partnership with them.”
 
In business for more than 50 years, Millet specializes in IG, tempering,
laminating, bent glass, print glass and shower doors, serving
architects, developers, investors and hotel chains throughout Mexico.
The company has 450 employees with locations in Merida and Cancun.
