Creative, compliant solutions with Contraflam and Vetrotech Saint-Gobain
The centerpiece of the Westland Distillery in downtown Seattle isn’t just the single-malt whiskey – it’s the gleaming, colossal copper and stainless steel stills. Due to local regulations a two-hour fire enclosure was required, which didn’t permit the owners to showcase their equipment in the tasting room.
Rather than relegate the stills – which are the largest west of the Mississippi – behind walls, Vetrotech provided panels of Contraflam 120 fire-resistant glass in VDS frames for a solution that would meet fire safety requirements but still allow visitors a free view to the inside of the distillery.
To learn more about Contraflam fire-resistant glazing, visit www.vetrotech.com or call 888-803-9533.
