Architects' Guide to Glass & MetalNew Entrant in Northeast Architectural Glass Market

Goldray Industries Ltd. of Calgary and Colonial Glass Solutions in Brooklyn, N.Y., have formed a business venture, Goldray USA, which will manufacture and distribute architectural glass products in the Northeast United States and New England.

According to Greg Saroka, president of Goldray Industries, "The alliance with Colonial couldn't have happened at a better time. Many of our customers are located in the Northeastern United States and with the global desire to conserve energy resources, it only makes sense to manufacture products in the area in which they will be consumed. Also, with new product lines and additional manufacturing space coming on board at the Calgary facility in January, this move allows us to transfer some of our capacity requirements to New York."

The current Colonial Glass facility will be used as a platform for the venture, where the company will import Goldray's manufacturing systems and experience in decorative glass into its current operations. The company is also making an extensive investment in plant upgrades to add decorative glass manufacturing capabilities; it will continue utilizing its cutting, tempering and fabricating capabilities.
