August 28, 2012

Company to Highlight Genius™ Window System, Host Hospitality Event Featuring Exclusive Access to Traveling Exhibition "Da Vinci - THE GENIUS" MONROE, Ohio, Aug. 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Deceuninck North America, a leading designer and manufacturer of high-quality systems for windows, doors, and outdoor living, is harnessing the power of genius during GlassBuild 2012 (September 12-14, 2012 at the Las Vegas Convention Center). The company will showcase its new Genius™ Window System during a hospitality event at "Da Vinci – THE GENIUS," a travelling exhibit and the most comprehensive compilation of Leonardo da Vinci's work, which is currently on display in Las Vegas. In addition, Deceuninck will be displaying Genius and its other innovations and products as an exhibitor at GlassBuild in the Innovative Products Pavilion (Las Vegas Convention Center at booth #547). "Celebrating GENIUS," Deceuninck's hospitality event, will be held on Wednesday, September 12 from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. at The Venetian (3355 Las Vegas Boulevard South). Invited guests will enjoy cocktails, hors d'oeuvres and exclusive access to the travelling exhibition "Da Vinci – THE GENIUS." They will be able to view the interactive gallery that includes the first concepts of a car, helicopter and submarine, as well as the famous artist's anatomical studies and Renaissance art. Following this, attendees will adjourn to Bouchon, a restaurant located in the hotel's Venezia tower, where they will experience the culinary genius of world renowned chef Thomas Keller, who was named "America's Best Chef" by Time magazine. They'll also have first-hand access to the Genius Window System. Introduced earlier this year, Genius is the world's first interlinked dual sash window that enables thermal performance values exceeding R-14 without the use of exotic films or gasses. A patent-pending window system, Genius is designed with an additional bonus air space between the two sash members that results in an extremely effective barrier to thermal energy flow. In addition, a unique thermal-activated ventilation system serves as an integral part of the window's design. This turns Genius into an energy generator by automatically venting solar-heated air into the building's interior in the winter and venting it to the outside in the summer.
