A new tempering furnance (Uniglas) and a new HST furnance (TMB) are put into operation.

A new cutting facility is put into operation.

"Glassics", a curtain wall, consitutes an absolutely new development together with our partner, Allface Befestigungstechnologie GmbH & Co KG. This structual glazing system shows no fastening devices whatsoever when viewed from the front-just screen-printed TSG-H, with an ultra-thin joint width of 10mm. The static strength without gluing (University of Applied Sciences-Munich Dec. 2008), component testing without gluing (April 2009) and fire testing in accordance with ÖNORM B3806 and ÖNORM 3800-5 have all already been covered by test certification.

For Steindl TSG Sicuro and TSG-H Sicuro, proof of conformity in accordance with European standards EN 12150/EN 14179 furnished by initial type testing. This testing was carried out at the Univerity of Applied Sciences-Munich (Notified Body 1643).

The conformity of Steindl LSG Sicluamit with EN 14449 has likewise been proven. This testing was also carried out at the University of Applied Sciences -Munich (Notified Body 1643).

The initial type testing (ITT) is also successfully carried out for Steindl´s fire-resistant glass assortment in accordance with EN 12150 and/or EN 14179, AN14449 and EN 1279 through official sampling and fire testing by the renowned testing institute ibs in Linz ( Notified Body 1322). The contract for certification is awarded to the ift-Rosenheim.

Steindl multiple pane insulating glass with silicon edge seal is in corformity with EN 1279. The tests in accordance with EN 1279-2 (Water Vapour Diffusion-thigtness) and 1279-3 (Gas-thigtness) are carried out by ift-Rosenheim, and the product is also certified. This makes Steindl one of the very few manufactures which have funished their own proof for this.

Mechanical securing fos SG-U "MSR SG-U" is used in cases for which remaining load-bearing capacity is required in case of gluing failure, e.g. in OIB Guideline 4 from installation heights of 4m above ground level.

The new CNC system is put into operation.

We receive ETA-08/0099 May 2008 from the DiBt for our Steindl SG Façade, making this ingeniously simple and brilliantly beautiful SG System one of the first approved glued façades Europe-wide.

With the Steindl SG-U System, a structual glazing system is introduced that combines economically efficient solutions with an attractive visual effect in a very flat design. The retaining system engages in the edge seal of the thermopane glazing.

Development of structural glazing façade as fire-protection-only façade, patent pending.

Third stage of building at our plant in Itter for the production of aminated-safety-glass and TSG as well as the opening of a working-center for glass-panes with sizes up to 6m x 2,50m.

Development of point-mounted insulated-glass façades as well as the development, in co-operation with the light laboratory in Bartenbach, of a daylight direction system for workplaces suitable for working at computer screens; new technology: air-brush on glass.

Development of Class G fire-resistant glass and of Sicuroflam Plan for flush-surface G30 glass façades; production start for our own fire-resistance test furnace; approval of Steindl Sicurofire in Great Britain and the Commonwealth countries.

Development and beginning of production of Steindl Sicurofire fire-resistant glass (F glass).

Second stage of building at our plant in Itter; the production of safety glass begins; the high convection tempering furnance is put into production; glass production is now only carried out under CNC control.

The fusing furnance is brought into production.

Irene and Heinz Eisenbach take over the management of the business as the third generation; the company headquarters are moved to Itter; the newly-built insulating glass facility is to date still one of the most modern in Austria.

First large project. Steindl Glas supplies high-quality sun protection glass to Swarovski.
