As one of the largest flat glass manufacturers in Europe, Şişecam Flat Glass is very active with its research and development work, constantly creating innovative solutions to meet the changing demands and requirements of the market.
One result of these R&D activities is the new low-E glass Şişecam Temperable Solar Control Neutral 70/37, which has now won the Facade Material of the Year Award in the architecture category. This is the eighth time the company has won this award.
What is behind the award-winning Şişecam glass?
The new, highly transparent and low-reflective glass with a U-value of 1.0 offers not only high thermal insulation, but also efficient solar control and high light transmission. The latter reduces the need for artificial lighting.
This makes the glass an equally suitable solution for residential buildings, villas and shop window glazing where transparency and low reflection are required.
