Pilkington energiKare™ Pilkington energiKare™ differs from basic double glazing as it works in two ways. It reduces the amount of heat lost through your windows, but also allows more heat (energy) from the sun in through the glass. This effect is known as solar gain and you’ll benefit from its effects all year round, for free.

Pilkington energiKare™ energy-efficient glass can reduce the amount of energy lost through windows by up to 90 per cent (when upgrading from single glazing) and can save homeowners up to £400 a year on heating bills*. These statistics are championed by TV architect, George Clarke, who is on board to help us raise awareness of being energy efficient and how it increasingly affects the value ...

Pilkington energiKare™ insulating glass units will reduce your home’s CO 2 output, making your carbon footprint smaller. In a gas-heated semi-detached house, you could save 0.72 Tonnes of CO 2 per year by switching from single glazing in timber to Pilkington energiKare™ in a PVC-U frame.

Pilkington K Glass™ forms the inner pane of an energy-efficient double glazed unit, such as Pilkington energiKare™. The coating reflects heat back into the room whilst also letting in free heat from the sun, known as passive solar gain.

Our domestic range of insulating glass units (IGUs) known as the Pilkington energiKare™ range, includes a non-coated glass as the outer pane of the IGU that contains extra clear Pilkington Optiwhite™ E (a low iron glass) which maximises the free energy delivered by the sun. For windows, every component of the sealed unit is designed to capture and retain energy inside the home ...

Pilkington Optiwhite™ is a low-iron extra clear float glass with very high light transmission. It is practically colourless, and the green cast inherent to other glasses is not present. It is therefore ideal for use where glass edges are visible or where a neutral colour is desired. As its light transmission is higher than clear float glass, it is perfect for applications where transparency ...
