Give a Little. Get a Lot.

We at Suntech of Fairfield County, Inc. love our home of Westport, CT in Fairfield County and like to nurture it whenever we can. Giving back to local communities is something we continually strive for—and it shows in our work. For example, we recently sent out a postcard illustrating the services we provide. For those who where the lucky recipients, you may not have noticed anything particularly special about this mailing.

Although we thought the postcard was pretty spiffy in its design and content, you’re right; there isn’t really anything out of the ordinary about it. What made the undertaking special to us is that we utilized the services of STAR, Inc., Lighting the Way, a local not-for-profit organization serving individuals of all ages with developmental disabilities. With the help of STAR, Inc., people with developmental challenges can contribute to society in a meaningful way and ultimately lead fuller lives. We used the folks at STAR, Inc. to fulfill our postcard project (add mailing labels, secure postage, deliver to the post office for mailing).

What seems like a pretty ordinary task turned out to be extraordinary. They did a great job for us, and the end result gave them something of which to be proud. And, simple as it was, the work put them one step closer to fulfilling their goal of assimilation into everyday society where work = money = independence.

We were so positively affected by the experience that we will use STAR, Inc. again—for sure—and encourage others to do the same. For us, the old saying really is true: a little goes a long way.

Suntech of Connecticut, Inc. Wins Contract for New Worcester Polytechnic Institute Facility

Suntech of Connecticut, Inc. wins contract for new Worcester Polytechnic Institute Facility

CT-based commercial contractor announces the selection of its services for the new Sports and Recreation Center at the Worcester Polytechnic Institute

North Branford, CT, August 26, 2010 – Suntech of Connecticut, Inc., a leading architectural glazing company specializing in the commercial market, proudly announces their selection as a contractor on the new Sports and Recreation Center at the Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) in Worcester, MA. The project, scheduled for completion in 2012, entails the construction of a 29,000 square foot gymnasium, complete with 14,000 square feet of cardio space and 5,000 square feet of specialized, multipurpose rooms. Featuring state-of-the-art equipment, the new center will overlook WPI’s quadrangle to the east and Alumni Field to the west. The $53.2 million development is part of the Institute’s seven-year capital plan.

As preferred vendor, Suntech of Connecticut, Inc. will provide custom applications and installations for the new Sports and Recreation Center, described by WPI President Dennis Berkey as a place for faculty, staff, and students to come together in competition, camaraderie, and celebration. The Center will include a four-court gymnasium, a 25-meter competition swimming pool, well-equipped locker rooms, offices for athletic department administrators and coaches, a multi-level atrium, an elevated jogging track and space and equipment for cardio, free weight, and circuit training. The center will also serve as a location for other large scale events, such as admissions open houses, career fairs, national academic conference and alumni events. In addition, the facility will have space dedicated to WPI’s robotics programs, in support of their regional and national robotics competitions.

As experts in the installation of Architectural Metal & Glass products, Glazed Curtain Wall
Systems, Aluminum Entrances and Storefronts, Custom Skylights, Windows, Metal Wall Panel
Systems, Exterior Ceramic Cladding, Fire Resistant Glass, and Stainless Steel Applications,
Suntech of Connecticut, Inc. aims to be a noteworthy part of the facility’s completion and success. Due to a 2007 WPI Board of Trustees policy decision, the facility must meet Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification standards from the U.S. Green Building Council. Therefore, more than 75% of the facility’s construction waste will be diverted from landfills through recycling.

“Areas of the building use some of the most modern energy efficient (green) commercially available building products available on the world market today”, stated Michael Berkun, President, Suntech of Connecticut, Inc.

The large glass expanses (curtain wall) surrounding the enclosed indoor Olympic sized pool (natatorium) have 2” thick triple glazed insulated glass units. These insulated panels have a thin (molecular level) Low-emissive metallic coating, (Low-e) which has been scientifically designed to let in the maximum amount of visible light (Visible Light Transmittance), while controlling the amount of heat coming in from the sun (Solar Heat Gain Coefficient). Using 3 layers of glass, they also entrap the still air in-between the glass panels and radiate collected heat back into the building, creating a very low U-value. (0.17).

The aluminum frames have been designed to outperform almost all commercially available products. Although a fairly expensive option in today construction market, the money was spent to reduce the amount of condensation that would typically occur in the high humidity areas of the pool areas.

“We are very proud to be involved in the new development at Worcester Polytechnic Institute”, stated Vincent Berkun, General Manager of Suntech of Fairfield County, Inc. “Assisting in such a necessary and positive project in WPI’s capital plan will be both exciting and rewarding.”

“Smart Glass” on the Verge – Architectural Record Technology

“Smart Glass” on the Verge – Architectural Record Technology.

Imagine you’re in the middle of a meeting, and everyone is peeking in! Imagine flipping a light switch for privacy. That’s what smart glass does. As the production amounts go up, the prices come down. The technology is there. One aspect of smart glass that Suntech can deliver is laminated or “sandwiched” versions – we can put it in to about any frame these days, as long as it’s stationary. The thickness can be mad up with other glass, and we can even put it in to surrounding glass applications that require exterior building exposures.

Another side note is that smart glass is able to be projected upon. What that means is that you could have a whole wall of glass that is literally a projector screen. This is exciting stuff. People have used privacy glass in bathrooms, sun rooms, by hot tubs and more.
