Custom Low-E Glass from China Factory | Energy-Efficient Glass Suppliers
Product Parameters
Introduction
Coating Type:
Hard-Coat: Applied during the glass manufacturing process at high temperatures, offering durability and scratch resistance. Ideal for environments with frequent handling.
Soft-Coat: Deposited via sputtering technology in a vacuum, providing superior energy efficiency but requiring extra protection during installation.
Visible Light Transmittance (VLT)
Ranges from 10% to 80%. Higher VLT allows more natural light, lower VLT enhances privacy.
Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC)
Typically 0.20 - 0.80. Lower SHGC blocks more solar heat, reducing cooling loads.
U-Value Performance
As low as 0.8 - 1.8 W/(m²·K) for double-pane, compared to standard glass (5.8 W/(m²·K)).
Thickness & Configuration
Single-pane (3-12mm), double-pane (16-40mm), or triple-pane for maximum insulation.
Size Range
Standard sizes up to 300cm x 600cm. Custom tailoring available for architectural needs.
Color Options
Clear, tinted (blue, green, gray), or reflective finishes for aesthetic flexibility.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the main difference between Hard-Coat and Soft-Coat Low-E glass?
Hard-Coat is more durable and scratch-resistant as it's applied during manufacturing, while Soft-Coat offers higher energy efficiency but is more delicate and usually used in sealed insulated units.
How does Low-E glass help in reducing energy bills?
By having a significantly lower U-Value (0.8 - 1.8) compared to standard glass (5.8), it provides superior thermal insulation, keeping heat inside during winter and blocking solar heat in summer.
Can I customize the size of the glass for my project?
Yes, while standard sizes go up to 300cm x 600cm, custom sizes can be tailored to meet specific architectural and design requirements.
Does Low-E glass affect the amount of natural light entering a room?
The Visible Light Transmittance (VLT) ranges from 10% to 80%. You can choose a higher VLT if you want more natural light or a lower VLT for increased privacy and solar control.
What color options are available for Low-E glass?
Low-E glass is available in clear, various tints (such as blue, green, and gray), or with reflective finishes to match your building's aesthetic.
