SILVERSTAR SUNSTOP NIGHT VISION T

The glass for a non-reflective view

Thanks to minimal internal reflection, SILVERSTAR SUNSTOP Night Vision ensures a reflection-free view of the outside – particularly in the dark.

Process: Thanks to special coating, internal reflection is reduced to a minimum 4%

Function: Non-reflecting view; very good summer heat protection during the day

Usage: For houses, hotels or restaurants with spectacular views

SILVERSTAR SUNSTOP SILVER

Consistent sun protection with an elegant external appearance

Our solar protection coatings help planners to meet the highest energy standards and acquire the relevant national and international certifications.

SILVERSTAR BIRDPROTECT

The glass with integrated bird protection

Every day, countless situations occur where glass panes in architecture pose an increased risk of collision for birds. To mitigate these risks, SILVERSTAR BIRDPROTECT offers appropriate, bird strike-resistant solutions for any constructional measure.

Aesthetics: Contains images impeding bird strike; aesthetic and transparent thanks to translucent colours

Functionality: Reduces risk of collision for birds; effective both in terms of transparency and reflection

Usage: For large-scale glass surfaces in the outdoor area or surfaces that are particularly at risk of bird strike

BIRDPROTECT Saflex® FlySafe™ 3D

Bird-protection glass with minimal impact on visibility

There are countless situations in everyday life where panes of glass used in architecture present an increased risk of collision for birds. To mitigate these risks, BIRDPROTECT offers appropriate, bird strike-resistant solutions for any constructional measure.

Aesthetics: Aesthetically appealing, bird-friendly solution

Functionality: Reduces risk of collision for birds; effective in terms of both transparency and reflection

Usage: For large external glazed areas or places where there is a particularly high risk of bird collisions

eyrise s350

The switchable façade glass with liquid crystal technology

In the dynamic solar control glass eyrise s350, the light and energy input is controlled via liquid crystals in the space between the glass sheets. At the heart of this innovative technology is licrivision®, a transparent liquid crystal mixture with special dye molecules. This mixture is placed between two glass sheets, that are coated with a transparent conductive film. Prompted by low voltage, the liquid crystals direction shifts and moves from a random position to a wellorganized orientation.

Functionality: Effective sun and glare protection; stepless regulation of light and energy input

Aesthetics: Windows remain transparent in both darkened and light conditions

Features: Large selection of shapes, colours and sizes

Vacuum insulating glass (VIG)

The glass solution for listed buildings

In historic buildings, windows are often not refitted with modern glazing due to aesthetic reasons or because of the requirements for listed buildings. Our vacuum insulating glass offers the perfect solution here: Due to the extremely small overall thickness of the insulating glass structure, it also fits in the existing frames used for single-glazed windows. The windows then retain their original charm while also meeting contemporary requirements in terms of thermal insulation and sound insulation.

Aesthetics: The historic appearance of the windows is maintained thanks to the thin glazing; virtually invisible microspacer

Functionality: Good insulating qualities and contemporary sound insulation with high light transmission

Special feature: Installation in existing frames for single-glazed windows possible

SWISSWALL

The high-quality point support system for frameless glass façades

With SWISSWALL, we create particularly filigree, frameless glass façades. The glass elements are fixed in place with a few point-shaped supports and thus guarantee maximum transparency. SWISSWALL is used wherever the façade, as a distinctive design element, should underscore the character of a building.

Aesthetics: Accentuated appearance due to a minimum of visible supports and maximum transparency

Usage: Complete system for multifunctional use

Safety: Simple assembly and adjustability as well as a high degree of prefabrication; fall-proof to SIA standards and guidelines such as SIGaB

SWISSGLAZING

The system for large-scale glass façades with the best views

Large-scale glass façades with a clear span width of up to 6 metres for each glass element can be implemented with the façade system SWISSGLAZING. This is made possible by laminated safety glass, which is characterised by enhanced stiffness.

Aesthetics: Maximum transparency as there is no visible façade structure

Usage: For glass façades with high wind loads which do not exceed a deformation of L/100 under maximum load

Special feature: No time-consuming static calculations; cost savings due to the elimination of mullion-and-transom construction

FIRESWISS FOAM

The fire-resistant glass with the highly efficient heat shield

The FIRESWISS FOAM fire-resistant glass not only protects from fire and smoke, but also offers effective protection from dangerous heat radiation for non-structural components.

Aesthetics: Maximum safety combined with beautiful look; can be designed transparently or in different colors

Function: Maximum reduction of heat radiation for non-load-bearing components; escape routes remain passable in the event of a fire; class EI fire-resistant glass

Safety: Additional protection from mechanical attacks and impedes injury in the event of breakage

FIRESWISS COOL

The fire-resistant glass with reliable heat protection

Specially designed for fire protection, FIRESWISS COOL laminated safety glass offers effective protection of the room from fire and smoke while reducing radiated heat on the side facing away from the fire. This class EW protective function permits the safe passage of escape routes in the event of a fire.

Aesthetics: Exceptional transparency; also available in color variants

Function: Reduction of radiated heat in the event of a fire; escape routes remain passable; EW class fire-resistant glass

Safety: Additional protection against mechanical attacks and injury-impeding in the event of breakage

FIRESWISS E

The fire-resistant glass that separates the room safely

The thermally toughened FIRESWISS E single-pane safety glass combines reliable fire protection properties with maximum transparency.

Aesthetics: Transparent or versatile design by printing

Function: Protects rooms from smoke and flames for a certain period of time; class E fire-resistant glass

Safety: Mechanical properties as well as flexural strength and fracture structure tested according to applicable standards

SWISSRAILING FLAT

The bonded railing system for puristic architecture

SWISSRAILING FLAT boasts simple aesthetics and a hidden substructure. In this system, the glass is bonded directly with the support profile. The connection area is concealed by full-surface printing, which is colour-coordinated up to the lower edge of the pane. The result is a perfectly flush-mounted appearance. Together with the free glass edge, SWISSRAILING FLAT appears particularly simple and elegant.

Aesthetics: Flush-mounted, without visible supports; free glass edge at the top (end without handrail)

Individuality: Variable design with diverse printing options; equally suitable for indoor and outdoor areas

Safety: Fall-proof according to SIA standards and guidelines such as SIGAB.

SWISSRAILING CLIP

The glass railing system with an expressive look

The SWISSRAILING CLIP fastening system lends balconies and stairs a distinctive appearance. The laminated safety glass is fixed in place here using a clamping system. The visible frames and clips give parapets and railings an expressive structure. They also lend the glass used a particularly slim and light appearance.

Aesthetics: Unique thanks to high-quality chrome steel clamps

Individuality: Glass design with almost unlimited design options

Safety: Fall-proof according to SIA standards and SIGAB guidelines

SWISSPANEL SOLAR

The individually printable front glass for solar modules

SWISSPANEL SOLAR effectively draws attentions to the architecture while at the same time ensuring sufficient energy from a sustainable source. With the printable photovoltaic modules, sustainable and creative façades and roofs can also be created, bringing life to the otherwise monotonous look of solar panels.

Aesthetics: Flexibility in design and colour preferences

Functionality: Efficiency even with complete opaque printing

Usage: Can be used in façades or on roofs
