PVCu Extra
A Bridge Packer for Multiple Systems
With vast numbers of systems, products and options on offer in the market, the fenestration industry has become increasingly complex with more choice than ever before for businesses and consumers.
With this in mind, Glazpart being a leading glazing component manufacturer has strategically thought broader when it comes to designing, manufacturing and supplying glazing accessories for use across multiple window and door systems.
At FIT Show 2025, Glazpart’ s forward thinking was once again evident with several product launches, one of which was the introduction of the MSBP( Multi- System Bridge Packer), a product for UPVC fabricators who may be operating with more than one profile system.
The MSBP’ s biggest feature is its flexibility of application for multiple window and door systems including:
• Eurocell – Logic M70
• VEKA – M70 / Fully Sculptured / Omnia
• VEKA Halo – System 10 / Rustique
• Liniar – Chamfered Feature
• Deceuninck – 2500 / 2800
• REHAU – Total 70
• Kommerling – C70 / 070
• Aluplast – Ideal 70 / Ideal 4000
For several years standard bridge packers have become a key design accessory in UPVC systems and provides a flat surface for the use of setting flat packers whilst ensuring the water escape and ventilation routes around the insulated glazed units are maintained.
As well as its great versatility, Glazpart’ s MSBP has several key features including:
• Easy clip mechanism to secure into position and remain fixed without the need for silicone.
• Ensures any water ingress into the glazing channel will run below MSBP and out via the window or door drainage system and stops water / moisture build up and freezing in the winter
• Prevents water from contact with the Insulating Glazing Unit( IGU) maintaining a distance between the water and IGU edges
• Easier and cleaner for installation
• Benefits fabricators working with several systems
Designed to fully integrate with the Glazpart range of glazing accessories including products such as flat packers, frame packers and drainage hole covers, the MSBP also has the same functional benefits as Glazpart’ s current range of bridge packers.
The MSBP was launched on Glazpart’ s stand at FIT Show in April and was promoted with large HD Lightbox graphics and free sample giveaways to visitors to the stand. The Glazpart was also on hand to provide advice and more information on the MSBP and Glazpart’ s other new products.
On the launch, Dean Bradley, Glazpart Sales Director commented,“ At this year’ s FIT Show, it was particularly pleasing to see the level of interest in the Multi-System Bridge Packer or MSBP for short, from both existing and new customers. The MSBP extends our Glazing Accessories range and clearly shows our intention to cater for our customers who may fabricate multiple profile systems.”
The new MSBP is part of Glazpart’ s extensive Glazing Accessories range and highlights how Glazpart is a“ one stop shop” with many glazing product solutions that help both window fabricators and installers in the UK and Ireland. Now in its
40th year of trading, Glazpart hasbecome renowned for delivering cost effective solutions for window and door glass spacing, alignment, security and protection.
The introduction of the MSBP also shows Glazpart’ s collaborative support for its customers across the glazing supply chain who use Glazpart’ s Glazing Accessories.
For system houses, Glazpart offers design, technical support and supply of fabrication components such as run up blocks, locking and handle wedges as well as cill joiners and end caps.
For fabricators and installers improved alignment is delivered from the widest range of products available with Glazpart’ s extensive glazing accessories range of glass setting and location blocks( flat packers). These integrate with Glazpart’ s range of packers( including the MSBP) which support the glass whilst preventing IGU damage or even failure
Dean Bradley explained Glazpart’ s relentless drive to increase and improve its Glazing Accessories product range,“ Our customers are primarily fabricators and we always invite collaboration to listen to their concerns and look for solutions that will make their operations both easier and more profitable. Internally, our research and development team along with senior operations team are constantly working on new product ideas to grow not just Glazpart’ s ranges but also the glazing and fenestration markets. The MSBP is a very welcome addition.”
