What's New for Durarail this Spring... part two
Also, just introduced is the new Topless Glass Post - The “Panorama Post” incorporates a sleek design with versatility and functionality. The round glass track of the Panorama Post enables the installer to adjust the angle the glass in a 30 degree in both directions thus enabling the use of one post to achieve multiple angles. The Panorama posts are available in both surface mounted and fascia mounted designs The Panorama posts offer an inexpensive, sleek alternative to the more traditional topless glass posts, while offering the onsite flexibility, and easier installation culminating in a savings in time and cost.
Features of Panorama Post:
- Extruded Glass Channels to eliminate welding

New Colors For Duradek In 2011
In 2011 Duradek rolled out their most exciting new colors to date... Cork Macchiato and Cork Espresso.
Two years ago, Duradek introduced the Cork pattern in a single color which closely resembled that of an actual Cork floor.
This color caught on faster than any other color in Duradek’s 37 year history.
Duradek then decided to expand the Cork line, by introducing the new Cork Macchiato and Cork Espresso.
Both of which have quickly jumped to the top of the Duradek Color Chart for Sales...
Soon Duradek will be introducing the newest Product Line – “Forest Floor Birch”.
Another new pattern which is meant to resemble a more natural look of leaves...
This new pattern and color should be available from all Duradek Authorized Dealers by the end of June.
