How our Group capabilities enable efficient technologies combinations: low-e coatings panoramic roofs meet sustainability requirements and open new perspectives for Smart roofs
Our new Light Control Panoramic Roof with Low-e Coating uses an outstanding, specially developed coating for vehicles.
The special Low-e film on the inner surface of the laminated glass allows high durability, unprecedented solar control, and heat insulation performance by combining inorganic materials and glass coating technologies. This greatly improves thermal comfort in summer and winter, enabling to reduce the use of air-conditioning in hot conditions, while reducing the need for heat in cold weather.
This efficient coating can be combined with our high resin, polymer materials, and composite technologies used in the dimming function. The latter instantly adjusts transmitted light levels, allowing the control of daylight entering the cabin environment, providing new enjoyment, comfort, and experiential values to driving.
