Coated Solar Protection Glass
Coated solar protection glass controls the amount of solar energy penetrating into the building, letting in light while reflecting part of the sun`s heat (mainly in the form of invisible infrared radiation). As a result, the inside of the building remains not only bright but also cooler than with normal glass. By reducing the need for air conditioning, such types of glass contribute directly to energy savings. They are available in single, double or triple glazing in a wide range of colours.
Well-known as a top-class solar glazing, Stopray, AGC’s range of soft coatings (type C following EN 1096-1), allows the highest level of natural light into a building but no heat. As a result, it delivers high solar protection while being transparent and maintaining a neutral colour. Always used as double or triple glazing, it is suitable for use in all climates as it controls heat entering in the summer and keeps heat from escaping during the winter. Since Stopray is also available in temperable versions (Stopray T range), this brand offers architects more design freedom and flexibility in their projects.
