The window industry is under increasing pressure: higher volumes, tighter regulations, sustainability targets and rising production costs. Automation is no longer optional; it is essential for competitiveness.
In this context, tape-based bonding is becoming a strategic enabler in industrial window production and ensures stable, series system quality.
Automation Demands Simplicity and Reliability
Efficient automation relies on stable, predictable processes. Tape-based bonding offers a clear advantage by eliminating many of the variables associated with manual applied liquid adhesives.
With SDG® technology, the Static Direct Glazing, manufacturers benefit from:
- Faster production cycles
- Reduced rework and scrap
- Cleaner, safer processes
- Lower process-related risk
This directly impacts productivity, cost efficiency and output reliability.
One Technology Instead of Multiple Systems
Hybrid window systems are now standard — combining aluminium, PVC, wood and composite materials. Managing multiple bonding technologies increases complexity and operational cost.
SDG® enables manufacturers to work with one bonding solution across all common frame materials, reducing:
- Material variety
- Training and qualification effort
- Changeover times
This simplification is a key lever for scalable, industrial production.
Sustainability That Pays Off
Sustainability is increasingly linked to economic performance. SDG® technology supports window systems with a minimum 30-year service life, officially recognized by the German Federal Office for Building and Regional Planning (BBSR).
Longer-lasting products mean:
- Lower lifecycle costs – reduced maintenance
- Improved eligibility for sustainability-driven tenders
Durability becomes a measurable business advantage.
From Operational Efficiency to Market Differentiation
Tape-based bonding is not just a production choice — it is a strategic decision. By combining automation readiness, material flexibility and certified durability, SDG® technology helps manufacturers future-proof their operations.
All Frames. One Tape. Zero Compromise.
A clear value proposition for decision-makers focused on efficiency, sustainability and long-term competitiveness.
Ready for the Next Step
At Fensterbau Frontale, Lohmann demonstrates how SDG® technology streamlines window production, from the shop floor to the balance sheet.
Looking forward meeting you at our booth 6-455 in hall 6!
