Pilkington Insulight™ Phon


Pilkington Insulight™ Phon is the name of our own Insulating Glass Units (IGUs) offering enhanced noise control.

Pilkington Insulight™ Phon is a proven and tested solution to the problem of noise control.

Pilkington Insulight™ Phon is ideal for use in inner city areas where noise is a particular problem.

How it works

The enhanced sound insulation of Pilkington Insulight™ Phon insulating glass units is made possible through the use of:

  • panes of varied thickness – a 30 percent difference in thickness is recommended, e.g. 6 mm and 10 mm,
  • Pilkington Optilam™ laminated glass, which is produced by combining two or more glass sheets with one or more PVB interlayers,
  • Pilkington Optiphon™ glass – laminated, sound absorbing glass with high acoustic insulation, which uses special foil to yield excellent noise attenuation parameters.

 

Features & Benefits

  • Extensive glass range to meet all environmental performance requirements.
  • Double and triple glazing solutions.
  • High levels of noise attenuation coefficients.
  • A wide range of acoustic parameters.
  • Suitable for internal and external applications.
  • Can be combined with other products in the Pilkington glass range to achieve other benefits.

 

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.).
