Pilkington EverGreen™


Pilkington EverGreen™ establishes a new standard of quality, aesthetics and performance for green body-tinted glass. This product offers solar control characteristics and high selectivity, in a shades of green colour.

Pilkington EverGreen™ provides high light transmittance when compared to other tinted float glasses whilst still providing solar control, resulting in a high selective glass.

The solar control properties and colour density of the product varies with each thickness, so that glass with properties appropriate to a particular application can be chosen.

Key Features

  • Improved solar control performance compared to traditional tinted float glass, preventing heat entering the building and therefore reducing the need for air-conditioning.
  • Solar control performance and colour density vary with each thickness.
  • Refreshing soft green colour, offering a crisp, clean view of the outside.
  • High daylight transmittance compared with other tinted glass, reducing the need for artificial lighting.
  • Low internal and external reflection.
  • Low UV transmittance.
  • Additional thermal insulation performance when combined in an insulating glass unit with a low-emissivity glass.
  • Can be laminated, toughened, bent and enamelled using standard techniques.
  • Can be used in monolithic form or incorporated in insulating glass units.
  • Pilkington EverGreen™ is available in 6 mm thickness.

 

Applications

Pilkington EverGreen™ is ideally suited to both hot and cold climates. The product absorbs much of the sun’s heat and UV rays while still letting through a substantial level of daylight.

Where a safety glass is required, it can be specified as toughened or laminated glass. It is ideal for any applications whether commercial or domestic, where an uncoated solar control glass in a refreshing soft green colour is required.

To achieve additional thermal insulation, the product has to be combined in an insulating glass unit with a low-emissivity glass.

Spectrum Calculation Program

Pilkington Spectrum is a Windows-based glass performance model which enables you to quickly and efficiently calculate key properties of a wide range of single glazing and insulating glass units. Also available as an app for mobile devices, you can use Pilkington Spectrum to provide the following information:

  • Light and solar properties (transmittance, reflectance, absorptance, g value, etc.).
  • Centre pane Ug-value.
  • Sound insulation values.
  • Global Warming Potential (GWP), or carbon footprint.
  • Ultra violet (uv) transmittance and colour rendering index (Ra).
  • Other properties (e.g. pendulum body impact resistance, fire resistance, resistance to manual attack, etc.).
