– a dynamic

interactive
experience
» TITON HAS ADDED A DYNAMIC
and fully interactive CGI environment – the
‘Titon Product House’ – to its website,
showcasing the array of products available
throughout the company’s Window &
Door Hardware and Ventilation Systems
divisions.
Once the user has opened the house
in their browser, they are free to explore
the Titon Product House by selecting from
‘Window and Door Hardware’, ‘Ventilation
Systems’ and ‘Indoor Pollutants’. The first
option then allows a 3D property to be
explored, with products such as Titon’s
trickle vents, door handles and window
hinges all shown in-situ. Clicking an item
results in a brief product overview being
displayed, alongside a link to its relevant
page on the Titon website.
Tyson Anderson, Sales & Marketing
Director at Titon, said: “Titon has designed
and manufactured window and door
hardware since 1972; introducing the
Titon Product House now allows visitors
to our website to see how our products
are fitted within various rooms, as well
as their features, benefits and health
advantages. This will be extremely beneficial
to self builders, fabricators, specifiers and
homeowners alike.”

software to optimise the dispatch and delivery
of its popular Uni-blind sealed units with
integral blinds inside.
The company, which makes thousands
of deliveries across the UK every week, has
introduced Fleet Wizard automated route
planning to all 26 of its delivery vehicles. The
software gives Morley Glass & Glazing a clear
visual of its weekly orders nationwide and
enables the company to carry out easy load
planning for vans that takes into consideration
both location and load capacities, helping to
save both time and fuel.
With Fleet Wizard, Morley’s planners
and dispatchers simply load data into the

Guardian Glass commented: “These
challenging times have required all of us to
think differently about how we do business.
We want to build on this momentum of
necessary innovation and develop new ways of
supporting our customers and other preferred
partners.”
Recent digital initiatives by Guardian
Glass include online architectural glass
workshops currently running across Europe,
with similar digital events slated for the
U.S. and other regions in the coming weeks.
The company will continue to build out
its digital content and product portfolio to
inspire new thinking in the use of glass in
commercial architecture, as well as helping
to deliver more comfortable and energyefficient
living environments.

software’s easy-to-use dashboard which then
automates multi-depot, multi-route, multidrop
scheduling. Optimal trips are created,
and resources assigned in a fraction of the time
needed for a manual planning process.
To make the most of the vans, and prevent
them from returning empty, Morley Glass also
offers customers a free glass collection service.
Any post-consumer glass that customers return
to the Morley site is turned into cullet in the
company’s glass crushing machine before
being sent to Saint-Gobain for use in new
float glass.
