Azon provides turnkey solutions to the extruder or window manufacturer with complete machinery, thermal barrier chemicals, quality control and service programs. Conserving energy resources, while reducing greenhouse gases, is possible in commercial building when windows are produced with Azon structural thermal barrier technologies in the framing.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Discuss energy efficiency in commercial buildings and initiatives to reduce energy consumption to save costs while also supporting occupant health.
- Investigate performance-, health-, and comfort-related topics in aluminum fenestration systems, including material sustainability, thermal and structural performance, noise abatement, and condensation resistance.
- Evaluate the performance of aluminum window, storefront, and curtain-wall fenestration systems in the building envelope through the application of structural thermal barriers and high-performance glazing.
- Analyze a range of fenestration product types, measured performance outcomes, energy savings, and LEED and Passive House contribution through observing multiple case studies.
