Pushing the Limits: 10' x 20' Hurricane-Rated Jumbo Glass by Faour

Written By Kenneth Sandlin

I had the chance to visit my colleagues at SLIMPACT® by Faour Glass and finally see their SUPER JUMBO 10' x 20' hurricane-rated butt glazed window system up close. I’ve worked on many projects with glass sizes up to 10' and 12' tall, but seeing these truly massive panels in person was another level entirely.

Faour continues to push the boundaries of what's possible in hurricane-rated architectural glazing—pairing elegant design with serious engineering muscle. Their system delivers the ultra-clear look of butt-glazed glass at a scale that’s hard to appreciate until you’re standing in front of it.

I’ve previously partnered with Faour to provide AIA CEU training on specifying jumbo glass systems, and I can confidently say they’re leading the charge when it comes to delivering high-performance, large-format solutions for luxury residential and commercial projects.
