About Velocity | Velocity Glass

Our Story

Velocity is a new architectural glass fabricator created by Apogee® Enterprises. As parent company to several leading commercial curtainwall, window and storefront businesses, Apogee knows glass facades.

Velocity has been designed from the ground up to meet the unique needs of commercial construction projects requiring less than 25,000 square feet of glass within a 500 mile radius of the Dallas, Texas market and the southeast of the United States. Velocity offers mainstream glass products with fast lead times, high quality and competitive prices. This new company draws on Apogee’s decades of experience in the glass industry and is fully backed by Apogee’s size and strength.

Velocity sources Low-E coated glass from the primary glass manufacturers, limits its product offering to common glass configurations and limits the size of projects served to provide market competitive and consistent lead times. We trust you will find this combination of short lead times, reliable high quality fabrication and complete-and-on-time delivery will make a positive difference in your business. Thank you for considering Velocity.
