The typical home loses 30% of its heat through windows, so highly insulated windows are an energy efficiency option with a disproportionately large benefit. Essentially, a Vacuum Insulated Glass (VIG) window is like a flat, transparent thermos bottle that dramatically reduces heat loss and sound penetration. Super thin panes of glass, separated by tiny spacers are sealed around the edges creating a vacuum between the two panes.
VIG combines the best thermal insulation and noise reduction with appealing aesthetics allowing seamless integration into existing frames or new windows and doors.
Key Benefits
ENERGY CONSERVATION: The high vacuum chamber of our VIG glass, effectively blocks thermal transmission.
NOISE REDUCTION: Thanks to the high vacuum chamber VIG glass effectively blocks sound transmission.
THINNER AND LIGHTER: Our VIG structure is thinner and lighter than insulated glass improving aesthetics.
FULLY TEMPERED: If the glass breaks, it breaks into small honeycomb shaped particles.
THERMAL INSULATION: The properties of VIG meets all international thermal transmittance requirements for passive houses.
SUPER LONG LIFE: The superior sealing getter material ensures a long service life expectancy.
EASY TO REPLACE: A single piece of VIG is only 8.3 mm thick - it can be easily retrofitted into original window and door frames to better retain the original joinery of the building.
EXCELLENT UV FILTERING: VIG effectively lowers the UV radiation protecting indoor furniture and appliances.
LEAD FREE: VIG is environmentally friendly- the metal sealing material is leadfree and hazard-free.
