Do you know about innovative glazing?

Technology is constantly progressing and this is a phenomenon that affects many areas, including glazing! Although various technical advantages have been brought to improve the performance of classic glazing as we know it, today, there are models of glazing specially designed to provide more comfort and make life easier. If you have never heard of them, here are some examples of these modern glazings that may interest you.

Opacifying glass

Opaque glazing is made up of two laminated panes between which a liquid crystal film is inserted. Connected to an electrical connection that works thanks to a transformer, these liquid crystals undergo variations when they are plugged in. The result is classic transparent glazing depending on what you want, or opaque glazing that hides the view while maintaining good brightness in the room when you want it, all thanks to a simple press of an on/off switch.

In other words, opaque glass is a bit like a blind but better, thanks to efficient and practical technology!

Glazing with integrated blinds

This system is the result of the combination of double glazing and a Venetian blind. It therefore combines the thermal and acoustic performance of double glazing. It also offers optimal solar protection, combined with complete control of the brightness generated by the blind.

Heated glazing

Here again, double glazing is highlighted but with a particular feature that makes all the difference. It is powered by electric current and transforms it into heat by diffusing it throughout the room in an efficient manner.

In addition to the thermal performance obtained by classic double glazing, the fact of being heated therefore allows you to generate more heat in your home, which means even more energy savings!

Self-cleaning glazing

Do you think that windows constantly need you to maintain them? Think again! With self-cleaning glass, you no longer need to do this task, at least for the outside.

This glazing is completely autonomous and cleans itself, thanks to an incorporated glass that uses solar energy. It can also draw on rainwater to get rid of all the dirt. These types of innovative glazing represent a fairly significant cost on your budget. But these are products that provide excellent comfort.
