# The Five Defining Qualities of Vitro Certified® Fabricators

 1 minute read

## What You'll Learn:

- *Vitro Certified*® Fabricators Deliver Quality Products
- *Vitro Certified*® Fabricators Are Reliable Partners and Provide Strong Customer Support
- They Benefit from Advanced Training and Resources

When you need a fabricator that can deliver high-performance Vitro Architectural Glass (formerly PPG Glass) products on your timeline, choose a certified member of the *Vitro Certified*® Network. Our certified fabricators exhibit the characteristics that you should expect from your supplier.

Since 2001 the *Vitro Certified*® Network has provided high-performance coated glass through regional fabricators and glass manufacturers dedicated to delivery of quality fabricated glass with short lead times. Since its inception, the network has grown to more than 140 locations worldwide and has shipped more than 300 million square feet of *Solarban*® glass for commercial buildings. Members of the *Vitro Certified*® Network have access to some of the industry’s most advanced training and education on glass handling and fabrication to maintain consistency in both color and quality, as well as reliability of product performance

**Quality:** Members of the *Vitro Certified*® Network set the standard for superior service from the first bid and sample request to the technical and back-office support.

**Trust:** The relationships that the network has built with glaziers are based on decades of providing reliable, high-performance products; honest, straightforward answers; and comprehensive support every step of the way.

**Reliable:** Certified fabricators within the *Vitro Certified*® Network get you the glass you need when you need it—on time and within budget.

**Timely:** When lead times are critical, the combination of Vitro Architectural Glass technology and the *Vitro Certified*® Network combine to get you your glass faster.

**Responsive:** When you have questions about products, bids, projects and delivery times, you need to be able to easily reach a live person who can get you the answers. *Vitro Certified*® Fabricators know your work is time-sensitive and they’ll respond—quickly and decisively.
