Energy-Efficient Glass System
PPG Industries introduces the Solarban R100, a transparent-reflective, solar control glass system as its latest addition to the company’s line of glass products. Featuring the same coating technology as the Solarban 70XL glass, the R100 model delivers solar performance with color-neutral exterior reflectance of 32 percent, while its interior reflectance offers 14 percent, according to the company. With its neutral appearance, Solarban R100 can be used in various settings, including privacy glass applications. The low-emissive glass unit is designed with visible light transmittance and solar heat gain technology, allowing users to save heating, cooling and lighting energy, according to the company.
