Pilkington EverGreen™
Pilkington EverGreen™ establishes a new standard of quality, aesthetics and performance for green body-tinted glass.
Pilkington EverGreen™ provides high light transmittance when compared to other tinted float glasses while still providing solar control, resulting in a highly selective glass.
The solar control properties and color density of the product varies with each thickness, so that glass with properties appropriate to a particular application can be chosen.
Benefits
- 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 color density vary with each thickness.
- Refreshing soft green color, 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 enameled 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 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 color is desired.
To achieve additional thermal insulation, the product should be combined in an insulating glass unit with a low-emissivity glass.
