Product spotlight

Solar control glass

Pilkington Building Products, United Kingdom, added Suncool Brilliant 40/22 to its high performance solar control glass line. It features a subtle blue tint in reflection, natural light transmittance of 40 percent, energy transmittance of 23 percent, and low emissivity properties for thermal insulation, according to company literature. Its 45-percent heat absorption reduces the need for toughening in many applications, according to the literature. The glass is available in annealed, toughened and laminated, and as the outer pane of a spandrel glass insulating glass unit. Typical applications range from building facades to large atria and glass walkways.
