We're moving to Urethanes
040312 10:44 EST Filed in: Company Updates | Product Updates
liquidoranges is now using urethane adhesives exclusively for all our art glass, unless specifications demand otherwise. Urethanes are superior over PVB's for a number of reasons. Urethanes won't yellow over time like PVB's, they are inert and less affected by moisture, and they are more compatible with our art interlayer, resulting in a superior art glass of the highest clarity. We are now using KrystalFlex PE399 which offers identical UV-A/UV-B filtration to the Safelex UV PVB (complete filtration up through 380 nanometers)

ART GLASS CLOCK FACE for Saudi Arabia
030212 15:20 EST Filed in: Company Updates | Project Updates
The clock face for Electric Time Company, Inc., made for a crown prince in Saudi Arabia is finished. Electric Time asked liquidoranges to produce detailed artwork in glass for the dial, modeled after the Mecca Clock Tower. Glass dial is 53"ø (flat) and made from tempered PPG Starphire glass layers, laminated to produce a 3/8" thick dial designed to fit within the metal bezel manufactured by Electric Time. The hour indicators and metal rings were applied to the surface of the glass by Electric Time, using 3M VHB adhesive tape. Saflex UV PVB was used as a UV-A/UV-B filtration to preserve the artwork.
