4 FAQs about Solar uniform light glass

Can solar control glass be colored?

Our solar control glass is applied on clear float glass and has a neutral aspect, allowing more natural, truer views through the glass. However, if you wish, solar control glass can also be colored. Our solar control coatings can be applied on tinted glass to further help mitigate glare and solar heat gain.

What are the applications of solar control glazing?

The applications for solar control glass are wide-ranging. From windows, facades and curtain walls to roofs and skylights, in fact, any application where glazing is a physical barrier between the inside and outside of a building, solar control glazing can be considered.

Can solar control glass be used for monolithic applications?

Some of our products can also be used for monolithic applications due to the durability of their coating. Our solar control glass is applied on clear float glass and has a neutral aspect, allowing more natural, truer views through the glass. However, if you wish, solar control glass can also be colored.
