It offers:



  • Low solar factor (0.37) = reduced cooling loads and air conditioning costs within buildings

  • High light transmittance (70%) = helps to transmit a high amount of natural light through the glass

  • Achieves a U-value of 1.0 w/m2K (in a standard DGU with 16mm argon cavity) = ensures the heat from within the building stays inside to reduce heating requirements


Ideal applications



  • High end residential properties

  • Standard non-complex commercial buildings

  • Bi-fold doors / patio doors in a south facing elevation
