New Innovision Windows from Owens Corning

New Innovision(TM) Windows Offer Unparalleled Structural Integrity, Strength and Resistance to Extreme Environmental Conditions

• is designed for use in residential or commercial applications.


• has strong and secure corner joinery for unparalleled structural integrity.


• delivers design pressure ratings of up to 142.5.


• is well suited for extreme environmental conditions.

"Fiberglass represents growth in the window industry and with Innovision windows, Owens Corning is combining the power of the leader in fiberglass building science with unparalleled performance," said Todd Hall, business manager, Owens Corning Construction Services. "Innovision windows offer the energy efficiency, durability and aesthetics homeowners demand and commercial contractors require for energy efficient building renovation.
