LOCAL MARKET

Tenant improvement glazing across Greater Houston

Houston’s commercial market spans high-rise towers with curtain wall, suburban office parks and large retail centers. Tenant improvements often include interior glass for office layouts and new or modified storefronts for retail.

Heat and sun make solar control important for exterior glass, and humidity makes sealing and water management essential.

Storm season is part of every exterior glazing decision. Parts of the region have wind-borne debris requirements that affect exterior glass selection.
