“To provide our client with

team at 100% Stainless Ltd

the TAPER-LOC® system to
ensure the perfect fit. Part of
a complete redevelopment

install than traditional
alternatives, TAPER-LOC® is
a dry glaze system with no
need for cement, suitable for
laminated toughened glass
from 12 to 21.52mm thick.
