Heat and Solar Control Glasses

These are the insulating glasses that provide the control of the sunlight and total solar energy coming to the glass surface in desired ratios.

Tinted Glass

Manufactured by adding coloring agents to the raw batch before melting process. Green, gray, bronze, blue, turquoise and dark smoky colors are available. By applying secondary processes to Tinted Float Glass; laminated glass, toughened glass, heat strengthened glass, enamalled glass, bent glass, coated glass, acid etched glass, sandblasted glass and mirror can be produced.

Tentesol Glass

Şişecam Tentesol is Şişecam Flat Glass’ reflective solar control glass.

Advantages

  • Prevents solar heat transmission into buildings, control the luminosity of sunlight and provides a comfortable working and living environment.
  • Reduces the cooling energy consumption and provides savings on cooling expenses.
  • Creates mirror effect from brighter direction of light. For example, it provides one way view from inside to outside during day hours and from outside to inside during night.
  • With its high reflectance, Şişecam Tentesol offers a uniform appearance for buildings with curtain walls by covering background features such as spandrels, columns, beams, suspended ceilings etc.
  • The coating can be placed facing outside (surface 1) or inside (surface 2) of the Insulating Glass Units. Reflectance is emphasized with first; and color is emphasized with second surface applications.
  • Due to its hard coating, it has no shelf life.
  • Can be toughened, heat strengthened and bent. Lamination and enameling is also possible.

Heat Control Glass — Low-E

Şişecam Low-E Glass is Şişecam Flat Glass’ heat control glass.

Advantages

  • Provides heat control and energy efficiency.
  • Heating expenses are reduced.
  • Do not compromise on natural day light and transparency.
  • Reduces condensation on glass surface.
  • Ensures maximum benefit from solar heat.
  • In winter, cold spots by windows are eliminated and heat inside the room is radiated equally.
  • Provides extremely high levels of protection against UV radiation over 68%, therefore helps to reduce fading and ageing effects.
  • Provides safety and security when Low-E coating is applied on a laminated glass.

Heat and Solar Control Glass — Solar Low-E

Şişecam Solar Control Low-E Glass is Şişecam Flat Glass’ heat and solar control glass.

Advantages

  • The coating provides heat and solar control properties at the same time.
  • Heating and cooling expenses are reduced.
  • Do not compromise on natural daylight and transparency.
  • Reduces condensation on glass surface.
  • In winter cold spots, in summer hot spots by windows are eliminated and heat inside the room is radiated equally.
  • Provides extremely high levels of protection against UV radiation over 75%,therefore helps to reduce fading and ageing effect.
  • Compared to ordinary glazing unit, an additional expense for Isıcam K incorporating with Şişecam Solar Control Low-E Glass will return in 1-2 years due to low heating and cooling expenses.

Temperable Low-E

Şişecam Temperable Low-E Glass is Şişecam Flat Glass’ heat control glass.

Advantages

  • Provides heat control and energy efficiency.
  • Heating expenses are reduced.
  • Do not compromise on natural daylight and transparency.
  • In accordance with architectural trends, provides solutions to safety requirements which is rising in line with expansion of the glass surface area and increase in glass thickness. It eliminates the risk of injury by dividing into small pieces which are not sharp, when breaks.
  • Reduces condensation on glass surface.
  • Ensures maximum benefit from solar heat.
  • In winter, cold spots by windows are eliminated and heat inside the room is radiated equally.

Temperable Solar Low-E

Şişecam Temperable Solar Control Low-E Glass is Şişecam Flat Glass’ heat and solar control glass.

Advantages

  • The coating provides heat and solar control properties at the same time.
  • Heating and cooling expenses are reduced.
  • Provides alternative solutions to projects with its different performance choices.
  • In accordance with architectural trends, provides solutions to safety requirements which is rising in line with expansion of the glass surface area and increase in glass thickness. It eliminates the risk of injury by dividing into small pieces which are not sharp, when breaks.
  • Reduces condensation on glass surface.
  • In winter cold spots, in summer hot spots by windows are eliminated and heat inside the room is radiated equally.
