Pilkington Solar Control Low-E Glass Overview
Pilkington Solar Control combines low-emissivity with good solar control. It is an on-line coated, pyrolitic glass with neutral appearance, medium light transmittance, and low light reflectance.
It is well-suited to both commercial facades and residential applications where high reflectance is prohibited or undesirable, a neutral aesthetic is preferred and energy efficiency in both summer and winter is required at a reasonable price.
Pilkington Solar Control Application
Pilkington Solar Control is the ideal choice for solar control applications requiring low reflectance and very neutral aesthetics, offering lower costs and ease of processing compared to the alternative off-line coated solar control glass.
Pilkington Solar Control Benefits
- Good light transmittance and low light reflectance for undistorted, natural views
- Durable on-line coating can be handled, cut, laminated, toughened, heat-strengthened, bent and made into Insulating Glass Units using standard processing techniques
- Colour stability whether toughened or annealed
- Energy efficient, combining low-emissivity with a significantly reduced solar heat gain (43% in astandard Insulating Glass Unit)
- Can be combined with products from the Pilkington range within an Insulating Glass Unit to further improve technical performance
- Can be used in both commercial facades and residential applications
