Auburn Hills, Mich.-based Guardian Glass[1] honored six projects at its annual awards dinner held in conjunction with the Building Envelope Contractors (BEC) Conference in Nashville, Tenn., in March.
Rick Zoulek, vice president at Guardian Glass, said, “Last night was about recognizing projects that use Guardian SunGuard coated glass and the glaziers and fabricators who helped bring those buildings to life. These projects and their facade design showcase why glass is a preferred building material in commercial construction. We thank the glaziers and fabricators for their commitment to excellence and ongoing partnership. Congratulations to all the nominees for their hard work and dedication to our SunGuard program. We look forward to working together in this new decade.”
