Guardian Industries has invested over £3M to upgrade the production line at its Goole plant. By completing the upgrade of its magnetron glass sputter coater, the facility is now able to make the more advanced coatings for its Guardian SunGuard SuperNeutral (SN) product series at the plant. An essential part of the upgrade was the addition of a Temporary Protective Film (TPF) applicator. "The TPF is used on all SunGuard SN products to protect the coating before and during processing, helping to secure higher yields through manufacturing," explained Pablo Iasmendi, Plant Manager. The TPF applicator is the most advanced to date within the Guardian group and has the capacity to cover all glass sizes up to and including "jumbo" size.
