Switchable Smart Glass Double Glazing

Product Overview

The latest generation of Sealed Switchable Double and Triple Glazed Smart Glass windows combines the benefits of improved thermal performance with the immediate control over privacy/security.

This durable technology replaces the need for old fashioned blinds or curtains offering greater control and comfort within any room. The (PDLC) Switchable layer is coated down on the inner surface of one panel of glass, then this is combined with a second panel of glass to form a sealed unit (Double Glazed Unit, adding a third pane of glass would build a Triple Glazed Unit).

Our Switchable Smart Double Glazed windows utilise a flexible spacer bar with an argon filled air gap in between to offer greater insulation and performance. Depending upon the customer requirements we offer a variety of glass options e.g. low iron, low E coatings to provide the most efficient Smart Privacy Glass windows on the market today.

Sizes and thickness can be completely customised to the customers requirement.

A simple ON – OFF mode switches the glass from being clear (transparent) to frosted (opaque).

This product is simple to install just like any standard glazed sealed unit, you simply just need to consider 2 thin cables exiting each unit to connect to our step down Transformer. Enjoy the benefits of insulated glass making your room warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.

This energy saving product requires minimal maintenance and np special cleaning requirements – you can treat them just like normal glass windows. Imagine living in a world which offers you complete control over your comfort/privacy/security all at the flick of a switch, without the fuss and clutter of blinds or curtains.

Switchable Glass dimensions are subject to a tolerance of +/- 3mm.

If you require installation of the product, please do reach out and speak to our team for availability and options. 

Are your Sealed Glazed Units tested?

Yes, our sealed units are tested to BS EN1279.

Can Switchable Glazing be used in opening windows or bifolding / sliding doors?

Yes, switchable glazing can be used in opening windows, bifold doors, and sliding doors. Proper cable management is required for the moving parts and we have achieved this on many projects. Consult with a specialist for specific installation guidance.

What is the minimum bite required for external units?

We recommend a bite of 13mm on 3 edges and 23mm on the bus bar (electrical connection) edge for our Sealed Switchable Units.

What is the light transmission for Switchable Units? Can this be blackout?

When the Smart Glass is turned off (frosted) the light transmission is 65%, so it does block some direct light. Although full blackout isn’t possible currently, we can amend the specification of the unit to further reduce the light transmission, such as tinted glass and PDLC layer.

What is the make-up of your Switchable Glazed Units? Can I customise it?

The composition is completely customisable for your project. By default it is 6mm of toughened glass with a Switchable Layer (facing externally), a spacer bar (thickness to be confirmed), argon-filled and another piece of 6mm toughened glass and a butyl seal to finish. As mentioned this could be completely customised by you – whether you want better U-values with a low-e coating, triple glazing options, shaped, curved or even acoustic glass – reach out to our team to define your specification.
