Our COOL-LITE® SKN range is specifically designed to provide neutral solar control for commercial buildings alongside large glazed apertures in residential projects. This range of solar control glass has been carefully engineered to prioritise comfort and energy efficiency, making it an ideal solution for combating overheating whilst enhancing the overall energy performance of a building space.
From aesthetics to interior design, noise levels, and natural light, various factors contribute to the overall feeling of comfort and well-being within a building. This is why a thoughtfully designed and carefully constructed space has the power to elevate our mood, enhance productivity, and even promote better health.
The COOL-LITE® SKN range inherently considers our daily comfort in its purpose as a façade glass. Its high-performance double silver-coated design is used across a range of applications where large glazing is required to offer high levels of light transmittance with a low solar factor.
The COOL-LITE® SKN solar reflective glass range is available in a range of coatings to suit different requirements and is applied to our PLANICLEAR® range of glass as standard. However, when used in combination with STADIP® SILENCE or the standard STADIP® range, it can also provide noise reduction alongside safety and security, respectively.
