Thermal control glass

Thermal control glass (low emissivity glass) — the polished glass with a special low emissivity metal oxide coating that allows to keep more warm indoors in comparison with standard glass. A low emissivity coating is transparent for human eyes — visually thermal control glass does not differ from simple clear glass.

Thermal control glass is usually used as inner glass in insulating glass units. Insulating glass units with thermal control glass limit heat losses, which allows saving on indoor heating.

Depending on a sputtering method, K-glass («hard» coated) and E-glass («soft» coated) are distinguished.

«Siberian Glass Company» offers thermal control glass of Guardian, AGC and Pilkington production.
