Glass

Glass represents about 80% of the area of a carpentry. That's why choosing glass requires a lot of attention in order to provide a pleasant atmosphere inside the house, eliminate noise and reduce energy costs.
The main indicators to be considered when choosing glass panels are:
Ug - the heat transfer coefficient, which is expressed in W / m²K. This is the most important indicator, indicating the energy efficiency of the chosen glass panel and hence the entire structure.
LT - transmission of light, indicating the degree of color or transparency of the glass.
SF - solar factor or solar transmission, which indicates how much of the solar energy passes through or reflects the glass.

SAINT GOBAIN GLASS offers the best response to thermal, acoustic and security insulation.

High thermal insulation
Thermal insulation in glass panels depends on the number of glass sheets and the air chambers between them, the type of glass, and the thickness of the glass panel.
The standard version of the marketed windows includes a 24 mm double-glazed packet with a thermal transfer coefficient Ug = 1.0 W / mpK
The value of the thermal transfer coefficient can be improved by adding a third bottle, reaching a value Ug = 0.6 W / mpK. The thickness of the triple glazing can vary between 32 and 48 mm depending on the chosen carpentry profile.
To reduce heat loss through the glass panel, Low-E glass is used, which is made by spraying a film of a mixture of metals onto clear glass. This type of glass has low emissivity, ie reduced heat transfer through the glazed surface and allows to reduce heat losses up to 2 to 2.5 times.

SAINT GOBAIN PLANITHERM 4S allows you to save energy both for heating (up to 50%) and for cooling the house (up to 40%), providing thermal insulation 3 times higher than ordinary glass. The winter-summer comfort function maintains a pleasant atmosphere all year round, and the reflexivity gives the space a touch of elegance (brightness of up to 71%).

Solar control
The trend in modern constructions is to use larger glass surfaces, requiring additional protection against solar radiation. This is achieved by covering clear or colored glass (bronze, gray, green or blue) with a layer of silica. Solar control glass has low emissivity glass properties (Low-E), but reflects the sun's rays outside buildings both in summer and winter.
We offer a diverse range of solar control bottles: Planitherm 4S, Parsol or Stopsol.

Perfect sound insulation
Perfect sound insulation is a standard feature of marketed glasses, providing you with a calm ambience both in the countryside and in the center of a city. Depending on the desired performance, sound insulation can be achieved by using different thickness bottles in the thermopane package, or by adding an anti-burglary bottle.

High safety
Stained glasses are designed to protect users against accidents and buildings against burglary.
ESG safety glass is, on average, 4 times more resistant than a standard bottle, to temperature changes, strong wind and blows. If it breaks, it produces small cubes without sharp edges.
The laminated safety glass is composed of two or more single bottles bonded together with a PVB film which, in case of breakage, acts as an armature that sticks to the shards, thus preventing accidents.

Ensuring privacy
Decorative or matte glass scatters light and protects you from indiscreet looks.
Decorative glass is used in places that you want to ensure your privacy (sanitary spaces, entrance doors or in any situation where you do not want the passing people to look inside). Typically, only one sheet of glass is decorative. It can be completely matte or with a particular pattern. You have a wide range of patterns, textures and colors to personalize your space.
