Pilkington Activ™ Blue


Pilkington Activ™ Blue is an on-line coated body-tinted, self-cleaning and medium performance solar control glass, in an attractive blue colour.

Its surface #1 self-cleaning coating has photo-catalytic and hydrophilic properties.

The unique blue colour helps to keep internal temperatures cool whilst still maintaining excellent light transmittance, low light reflection and high energy absorption.

Pilkington Activ™ Blue offers medium solar control performance helping to create a cooler internal environment which can be used all year round.

Features & Benefits

  • Self-cleaning properties reduce the need for manual cleaning, saving water and eliminating potentially harmful run-off from expensive detergents, also increasing personal safety.
  • Additional medium performance solar control properties, reducing solar heat entering the building, enhancing comfort and reducing the need for cooling the building.
  • Attractive blue or bronze body tinted glass, perfect for roof glazing, enhancing the view from inside to outside.
  • Good light transmission.
  • Low exterior reflection, improving aesthetics of the building.
  • Works even on cloudy days and during the night.
  • Highly durable pyrolytic on-line coating that lasts the lifetime of the glass.
  • Can be laminated, toughened, bent and enamelled using standard techniques.
  • Can be used in its monolithic form or incorporated in insulating glass units (coating on surface #1), for instance with Pilkington K Glass™, Pilkington Energy Advantage™ or Pilkington Optitherm™ range to offer additional thermal insulation properties.
  • Pilkington Activ™ Blue is available in 4 and 6 mm.
  • Achieves Class A to EN1096 for coated glass.
  • Achieves ASTM C 1376 standard specification.

Applications


Pilkington Activ™ Blue can be used in a variety of commercial and residential applications, including doors, windows, roof-lights and glass facades.

Programa de cálculo Spectrum

Pilkington Spectrum es un modelo de rendimiento del vidrio basado en Windows que le permite calcular de forma rápida y eficaz las propiedades clave de una amplia gama de acristalamientos simples y unidades de vidrio aislante. También disponible como aplicación para dispositivos móviles, Pilkington Spectrum le proporciona la siguiente información:

  • Propiedades lumínicas y solares (transmitancia, reflectancia, absorbancia, valor g, etc.).
  • Valor Ug del panel central.
  • Valores de aislamiento acústico.
  • Potencial de calentamiento global (GWP) o huella de carbono.
  • Transmitancia ultravioleta (UV) e índice de reproducción cromática (Ra).
  • Otras propiedades (por ejemplo, resistencia al impacto de un péndulo, resistencia al fuego, resistencia a ataques manuales, etc.).
