SGC International

What SGC International does

SGC International Inc. is the exclusive North American sales, service and distribution arm of Chinese architectural glass manufacturer CSG Holding Co. Ltd., operating from a warehouse and office at 6489 Corvette Street, Commerce, California (Los Angeles area). The company manufactures or fabricates — and distributes — the full architectural glass stack including clear float glass, low-iron glass, tinted float, Low-E (single, double and triple silver), solar reflective, insulating, laminated (PVB/EVA/SGP), enameled/silkscreened, tempered (including curved), fire-rated and digital-printed glass, with fabrication capabilities spanning cutting, edge work, coating (lines sized up to 3300mm x 6000mm), insulating, laminating, silk-screening and tempering.

SGC goes beyond commodity supply into engineered systems with its Custom Glass Systems line — Glass Fin, Cable Net, Steel Post, All Glass Door, Handrail and Shower Enclosure systems — sold with 10-year warranties on glass and metal materials. Underpinning these offerings are ISO 9001, SGCC and IGCC certifications, ASTM C1036/C1048/C1172/C1376/E774 compliance, and large-format/jumbo fabrication capabilities up to 3300x18000mm in tempered form. The parent operates four Chinese plants in Guangdong, Wujiang, Tianjin and Chengdu totaling ~1.48 million sqm of production area and twelve float glass lines with 2.6 million tons annual capacity.

The business model is B2B enterprise field sales to architects, designers and glazing contractors, supplemented by a Southern California distribution center stocking over 1,000 cases of inventory and a six-truck flatbed fleet (with crane delivery) supporting 48-hour turnaround for rush orders. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; quotations are handled directly and include full landed-cost components (ocean freight, inland freight, insurance, taxes, duties). Named enterprise customers include the Encore at Wynn, City Center Las Vegas, MGM Signature, Peppermill Reno, LAX, Raleigh-Durham International Airport and The Legacy at Millennium Park. The US entity reports 1-10 employees, consistent with a sales-office and warehouse-overlay model rather than standalone fabrication in North America.
