From the GSW Glass Team,partners with Saint Gobain Glass, we recommend Summer Comfort glass which can be used to keep interiors more comfortable by preventing excessive heat build up in sunny weather without the costly cooling or blinds.
SGG COOL-LITE ST is a solar control glass manufactured by depositing a coating of metallic oxides by magnetically enhanced cathodic sputtering under vacuum conditions onto clear float SGG PLANILUX or body tinted glass SGG PARSOL GREEN. The manufacturing process and type of materials with which the glass is coated ensure that this coating offers excellent durability and resistance during handling. These qualities enable this coated glass to be processed (tempered, laminated, lacquered) while still retaining its aesthetic and technical benefits. SGG COOL-LITE ST can be used in single or double glazing, with the coating on face 2.
