Insulating glass is useful in a variety of applications. Which is the best type of IG unit comes down to what function the window or facade it is used in is intended to achieve. The following is a rundown of the major types:
Many glass processors already use scanners for quality control. Others not yet. Sometimes the scanner is the answer to tasks that one would not initially associate with it. Examples of this are given by Sandra Kugler, Viprotron Sales Manager for Europe.
Based on the latest polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) technology, switchable smart glass (also known as smart glass or switchable glass) is glass that can be switched from frosted to clear at the press of a button. See here for the basics on this technology:
Today, when energy efficiency is more important than ever, it’s a good time to talk about insulating glass spacers. Glass spacers play a significant role in thermal performance of an insulating glass unit. Get the key facts here:
When Alastair Pilkington introduced the industrial process for producing float glass in the 1960s, it was not only a revolution for the production of flat glass. It also changed the way glass was made. At the same time the float glass process was a significant step in optical quality that could not be matched by previous methods.
Tempering of glass is a bit like cooking. It is all about understanding the processes. And learning from our mistakes – or those of others. Here are six mistakes, you will now not have to make:
