Storefront, Curtainwall and Glass Roof Packages
Glass Canopies
The integration of various glass options can significantly enhance the thermal performance of buildings, helping to create more energy-efficient and comfortable living and working environments.
Advanced Glass Treatments:
Ceramic Frit Glass: This type of glass features a ceramic coating fused onto the surface, which can be patterned to manage solar gain while allowing natural light to penetrate. It reduces heat absorption, thus enhancing the thermal efficiency of the glass.
Diffused Glass Options: These include frosted or tinted glass that diffuses light and reduces glare, improving comfort inside the building. Diffused glass also helps in controlling solar heat gain, which is essential in maintaining consistent indoor temperatures.
By carefully selecting and integrating these glass options, architects and builders can optimize the thermal performance of buildings, contributing to sustainability goals and enhancing occupant comfort.
Top Performing Glass Roof Solutions
HD Blue Glass is distinguished by its appealing blue tint, effectively reflects over 60% of solar energy, keeping your conservatory cool in the summer while significantly reducing solar glare. These units also help protect your interior furnishings and fabrics by blocking harmful UV rays, preventing sun damage and fading.
Glass Canopy Options
Fixed Glass: These are non-operable panels that can be used in large areas to provide uninterrupted views while contributing to thermal insulation. They are ideal for façades or as part of a glass curtain wall system.
Glass Roofs for Patio Enclosures: Installing glass roofs over patios transforms these outdoor spaces into usable year-round areas, protected from the elements while still enjoying natural light. These glass enclosures can also be designed with thermal breaks and insulated glazing to maintain energy efficiency and comfort.
