			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Corning Glass Block has been in the Buffalo, NY market for well over 20 years. As much as we would like to purchase everything American made it is impossible. As a matter of fact finding products that are American made are more difficult then ever. Unfortunately because of competition Corning purchases and distributes foreign block into the Buffalo market. With that said when making a desicion purchasing glass block windows there is no need to worry about the manufactuer or brand. When it comes to architectural work then you may be more concerned with using Coring glass block because many times there are more options when it comes to designing a project. If your willing to pay for Corning glass block it is avaliable but in the Buffalo market is would be considered special order.</p>
<p>For many years when using glass block all you would hear is Corning but now that name brand seems to be fading away.</p>
<p>We recomend you look at the company that assembles and installs glass block windows.  That is much more  important when considering installing glass block.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-58" title="6" src="http://americanglassblock.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/6-300x240.jpg" alt="6" width="300" height="240" />Did you ever know that glass blocks are now widely used materials for construction? Not only because glass blocks are attractive but also because of the cost and strength. Glass blocks are stronger and less expensive than bricks. Because glass blocks are tempered glass they are really hard and cannot be broken easily. Most people may think of glass blocks as those they see in churches, but they are not because those are called stained glass. Stained glass is different from glass blocks. Glass blocks are in general like blocks or bricks. They take the form of a block. Glass blocks are now making good market in the construction world. Buffalo,NY happens to be one of the better markets.</p>
<p>Glass blocks create really impressive ambience. They give an elegant impression to the people. Not just that, glass blocks also improve the physical beauty of the building. Your building would no longer look like warehouses but it adds sophistication to the looks of it. Glass blocks are also easier to maintain. You can just use ordinary cleaners for cleaning them. This really saves you a considerable amount of money.</p>
<p>Also, because glass blocks are translucent, they allow light to get in the building. This brings a lighter feeling for those people inside the building. You are also able to save for your electricity since you will only need less consumption for your light source.</p>
<p>If you ever plan on installing glass blocks for your building or your place, make sure that you got the best quality. Choose the best manufacturer for these glass blocks so that you are assured of the best output.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-42" title="5" src="http://americanglassblock.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/5-150x150.jpg" alt="5" width="150" height="150" />Glass blocks for your kitchen? Of course, you can.</p>
<p>Make that kitchen of yours allow light and turn this room into an airy and bright room, so perfect to cook in, and spend a lot of time in.</p>
<p>To add a touch of style and sophistication to your kitchen, you can use these glass block as your kitchen windows. You don’t have to worry about privacy, as these glass blocks are not your regular glass windows that allow either a two-way clear type of glass, or even the one way type of glass. These glasses are in block form, except that they’re made of glass, but a special type of fused glass, so scraping will not be a problem.</p>
<p>If you are already persuaded and enticed to have these type of glass for your kitchen, and budget is a little tight these days, we can suggest some steps, so you could apply a DIY, do it yourself, system, and let you kitchen experience a transformation.</p>
<p>First off, measure your window. Get all the necessary measurements, height or the length of your window, the width, and lastly, its depth. This would mean how thick your glass block would have to be to fit the window ‘casing’, so to speak. These glass blocks come in several depths. When you measure your window’s depth, add in an extra inch, for that ‘extra sill’. Make sure there is extra part of the glass block ‘hanging’, remember, you can have these glass blocks custom made. Frames for these glass blocks come in tan or white.</p>
<p>When choosing for the glass blocks, remember that a small opening would look better with smaller glass blocks, compared to having big glass blocks for your small sized windows. They would look too crowded, as it were.</p>
<p>Some patters determine, of course, how pretty it will look in your window, but you still have to remember that the type of pattern you choose would still, to some extent, influence and control a little, one’s sense of privacy. A diamond type of pattern would, have more privacy, but less light to escape through.  Call American Glass Block in Buffalo today!  716-826-6200</p>
