Optima Introduce World’s First Glass Calculator App

Monday, November 14th, 2011

Optima Systems have officially launched another industry first – the Optima Glass Calculator App.

The mobile app for iPhone is intended for architects and designers who can use the tool to quickly determine the correct thickness of partitioned glass. The app gives instant results, which means it’s ideal for measuring up a new job.

The app allows a user to select the load being applied to the glass as well as the height of the glass before being advised on the recommended glass thickness for both toughened and annealed glass.

The app was designed in response to the increasing demand from our customers who wanted a way to quickly calculate these types of numbers.

This also follows on from the success of our previous iPad app; the OptimaPad, which was released earlier in the year as quick, easy and cost efficient way for the Optima sales team to showcase Optima products and services using the popular and interactive iPad tablet.

Since its launch, the OptimaPad has been shortlisted for a 2011 Construction Marketing Award in the category of ‘Best Use of technical information’.
