ODAY × NorthGlass | Glowing at the SWISS BAU 2026 - The Swiss Basel Building Materials Exhibition

When the global construction industry's attention turns to Basel, Switzerland, an industry feast that combines top technologies and innovative concepts is about to commence. As the largest and most influential construction industry event in Europe and globally, SWISS BAU brings together the world's leading construction companies, designers, and industry experts, and can be regarded as the "trendsetter" in the construction field.

From January 20th to 23rd, ODAY once again collaborated with NorthGlass. At Booth C41 and C43 in Hall 1, under the theme of "Chinese Design, Chinese Manufacturing", they showcased two high-profile window and door products, demonstrating the innovative strength and high-end manufacturing capabilities of the Chinese window and door industry to the world.

PART 01: Global Construction Event Unveiled, Chinese Power Makes a Strong Debut

On the international stage like SWISS BAU, every appearance is a test of one's strength. The renewed collaboration between ODAY and NorthGlass was not an accident - NorthGlass, as the leader in the global high-end architectural glass sector, not only supplies glass to 110 Apple flagship stores worldwide, but also has provided services for world-class landmarks such as Beijing Daxing International Airport and the National Grand Theatre; while ODAY has been deeply engaged in narrow-edge window design and space adaptation for many years, and is well-versed in the dual needs of global users for aesthetics and practicality.

Both parties use technology as the bridge and design as the soul, continuing the core proposition of "Chinese design, Chinese manufacturing". This not only breaks through the technical limits of the industry but also redefines the aesthetics of contemporary architectural spaces, allowing the world to witness the leapfrog upgrade of Chinese doors and windows from "manufacturing" to "creation".

PART 02: Doors and Windows: A Fresh Start, Re-defining Spatial Aesthetics and Performance

The two products showcased at this ODAY exhibition have revolutionized the industry with their innovative designs and technologies, becoming the center of attention at the exhibition.

1. 190Y Concealed Track Pull-Out Door

The spatial aesthetics hidden within the details and the "All-Powerful King"

In the current trend of pursuing simplicity and transparency, the 190 hidden track sliding door, with its ultra-large dimensions of 3610mm width × 4000mm height, injects an open and layered feeling into the space. Its core highlight lies in the ultimate refinement of details, perfectly integrating practical performance with aesthetic design.

The 28mm narrow bezel display surface minimizes the presence of the frame, making the glass the main element of the space. Combined with the concealed track design, it not only avoids the common problems of track accumulation of dust and tripping in traditional designs, but also achieves seamless visual connection.

The 63mm wide glass slot can accommodate thicker safety glass or energy-saving glass. Combined with North Glass's advanced tempering technology, it enables a significant improvement in sound insulation and heat preservation performance. Even in a noisy environment, it can ensure the tranquility and stability of the space's temperature.

The single set of pulleys has a load-bearing capacity of 300 kilograms, which not only breaks through the usage limitations of oversized doors and windows, but also ensures smooth sliding without any jamming. It also takes into account both safety and durability, making the division of large-span spaces more flexible and reliable.

2.160 Extreme Series Arc-shaped Electric Sliding Doors

A groundbreaking arc-shaped manufacturing masterpiece that transcends boundaries

If the 190Y concealed track sliding door represents the optimization of planar space, then the 160 Series Arc Electric Sliding Door represents a dual breakthrough in both arc-shaped aesthetics and heavy-load technology.

The dimensions of 3926 mm in arc length x 4000 mm in height, combined with a diameter of 9000 mm, create a visually striking and tense curve, adding dynamism and sophistication to the architectural space.

The ultra-thin 24.6mm viewing surface with an almost invisible frame design allows the transparency and light-catching beauty of the curved glass to be fully realized.

With a single door capable of withstanding a load of 1000 kilograms, combined with an intelligent electric drive system, this heavy-duty curved door can smoothly open and close. It not only solves the control problems of large-sized Curved Windows and doors, but also demonstrates the strong technical capabilities of Chinese manufacturing in hardware components and drive technology. It provides a customized solution that combines aesthetics and performance for high-end commercial spaces and landmark buildings.

PART 03: Chinese Manufacturing, Presenting a New Business Card for the World

This joint exhibition between ODAY and NorthGlass is not merely a competition of product technologies. Chinese doors and windows are leveraging technological innovation as their core and design aesthetics as their outer layer to break the traditional perception of "Made in China" held by the international market.

As a "benchmark" in the global construction industry, SWISS BAU's recognition level directly reflects the international competitiveness of Chinese brands. The global debut of these two products not only provides customized solutions for the European market, but also sends a message to the world: Chinese doors and windows have the strength to define industry standards.

PART 04: Promote Progress Through Communication, Foster Growth Through Mutual Learning

The ODAY team visited the Panorama booth and used cross-disciplinary dialogues to empower product innovation. They refined the product capabilities within the international cutting-edge perspective, making the design and manufacturing of China's ultra-thin windows and doors more globally competitive.

When "Chinese design" meets "the global stage", this cross-border technological dialogue is injecting strong impetus into the high-quality development of China's construction and building materials industry.

In the future, we believe that ODAY will continue to use innovation as its pen to write a new chapter of "Chinese design, Chinese manufacturing", and bring more Chinese door and window products to astonish the world stage.
