Solar control glass

Solar Control Glass
Aaron Pocock Photography

See what's possible

Solar control glass allows sunlight to pass through a window or façade while radiating and reflecting away much of the solar energy. This means interiors remain brighter and cooler than with standard glass – helping to improve energy efficiency by reducing the need for air conditioning and interior lighting. Guardian’s SunGuard® range of solar control glass products combine solar control, light transmission and low solar heat gain properties with a range of colors and appearances to help accommodate any application. This allows you to build and design with light across a wide variety of projects, and with different finishes and performance levels. Solar control is often specified for large glazed areas, façades, conservatories, windows, skylights and roofs.
