Low-emissivity (Low-E) glass is a type of energy-efficient glass that has a microscopically thin coating designed to minimize the amount of ultraviolet and infrared light that can pass through, without compromising the amount of visible light transmitted. It is widely used in residential and commercial buildings to improve comfort and reduce energy costs.

​

Main Advantages of Low-E Glass

• Improved Energy Efficiency

  • Reduces heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer, helping keep indoor temperatures more stable and reducing the reliance on heating and cooling systems.

• Enhanced Comfort

  • Helps maintain consistent indoor temperatures by blocking cold drafts and excessive heat from sunlight, making living spaces more comfortable year-round.

• Lower Energy Bills

  • By decreasing the need for air conditioning and heating, Low-E glass can lead to significant savings on energy costs.

• UV Protection

  • Blocks up to 99% of harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, which helps protect furnishings, flooring, and artworks from fading.

• Environmentally Friendly

  • Reduces the overall energy demand of a building, lowering carbon emissions and supporting sustainable construction practices.

• Reduced Glare

  • Minimizes the amount of glare from sunlight entering through windows, improving visibility and comfort indoors.

• Condensation Resistance

  • Helps prevent the build-up of condensation on the glass surface, especially during cold weather, reducing the risk of mold growth and water damage.

Low-E glass is a popular choice for modern windows, skylights, and facades due to its performance benefits and contribution to both comfort and environmental sustainability.
