Advanced glazing allows you to harness all the positive benefits of natural daylight without suffering the undesirable effects such as excessive heat gain, glare and fading.

Electrochromic GlassAn electronically tinted glass that can be switched from clear to a dark tint at the click of a button, or programmed to respond to changing sunlight and heat conditions. Energy consumption and costs are greatly reduced. Electrochromic glass offers significant advantages over conventionally glazed products because they provide the highest possible solar control without sacrificing the view through the glass.
