Low-E Glass

Glass

A type of glass with a microscopic layer of metals applied to its surface that allows natural light through while blocking out over 99% of UV rays.

Light reduction: 9%
Solar transmission:  6%
UV transmission: 46%

One of the major benefits of our Low-E Glass is its unparalleled ability to reduce energy consumption. The secret lies in its smart design – a microscopic, practically invisible metal coating that reflects heat while allowing natural light to pass through.

Our Low-E Glass has exceptional heat-reflecting capabilities, especially during the sweltering summer months. This modern glass blocks out over 99% of UV rays and is designed to keep your spaces cooler naturally. It effectively reflects the intense summer heat outside, helping maintain a cool and comfortable indoor environment.

Low-E Glass offers exceptional transparency to invite high levels of natural light into your space. This promotes a brighter, livelier environment which can foster productivity, reduce dependency on artificial lighting, and ultimately save on energy costs.

North and West Facing Windows

For your North-facing windows, our Low-E Glass enhances thermal efficiency, allowing less heat to escape during colder months and maintaining a comfortably warm indoor environment.

Meanwhile, West-facing windows are subjected to the most intense heat of the day. Our Low-E Glass helps manage this heat gain efficiently. It minimises solar radiation and glare, reducing the need for air conditioning.

Available in 6mm & 10mm Glass

Our 6mm Low-E Glass is the go-to choice for applications requiring a balance of lightness and strength. This glass is perfect for smaller windows or sliding doors where less weight and thermal efficiency are paramount.

For projects that demand added robustness, we offer 10mm Low-E Glass. This thicker alternative provides increased structural integrity and insulation, making it ideal for larger window fronts, doors, or any application exposed to harsher environmental conditions. 

Available in Grey Tint

Perfect for any setting, our Grey Tint Low-E Glass brings a sense of serenity and sophistication to residential or commercial buildings. It adds a contemporary feel to your interiors, while the subdued colour scheme harmonises beautifully with any decor style.

Can Be Toughened or Laminated to Grade A Safety Glass

An integral feature of our Obscure Glass range is the ability to transform it into Grade A Safety Glass. This pivotal enhancement can be achieved through two distinct processes, each offering a unique set of benefits. You can opt for our toughened glass, which is heat-treated to be up to five times stronger than ordinary glass.

Alternatively, explore our laminated Obscure Glass, which consists of two glass layers pressed up against an interlayer. This construction ensures that, even if the glass is broken, the fragments stay adhered to the interlayer, preventing potential injuries and maintaining a level of security until replacement.

Glass

Glass selection plays a pivotal role when building or renovating your home. The type of glass selected has significant impact on the energy efficiency, acoustics and natural light exposure that your home has. Along with window orientation, selecting the correct glass solution for your home is crucial as it can positively impact your energy bill, your home's resale value and the overall comfort throughout the Australian summer and winter.
