Solar Control

COOL-LITE ST

COOL-LITE ST is a solar control glass manufactured by
depositing a coating of metallic oxides by magnetically
enhanced cathodic sputtering under vacuum conditions
onto clear float SGG PLANILUX or body tinted glass
SGG PARSOL GREEN. The manufacturing process and type of
materials with which the glass is coated ensure that this
coating offers excellent durability and
resistance during handling. These qualities
enable this coated glass to be processed
(tempered, laminated, lacquered) while still
retaining its aesthetic and technical benefits.
SGG COOL-LITE ST can be used in single or
double glazing, with the coating on face 2.

Applications

SGG COOL-LITE ST is a high performance solar control glass
that offers numerous architectonic flexibilities to
architects. These glasses are suitable for all types of
buildings, for great projects and for small buildings,
such as:

Office buildings
Stores
Schools
Industrial buildings
Houses
Facades
Roofs for winter gardens
Double skin applications

COOL-LITE SKN

Solar control glass with thermal insulation properties

SGG COOL-LITE SKN is a range of double silver solar control glass featuring high performance coatings. The coatings are applied to SGG PLANICLEAR or SGG DIAMANT float glass by cathodic sputtering under vacuum conditions.

Applications

COOL-LITE SKN are all solar control coatings that can be used both in residential or commercial buildings, either for façades or overhead glazing. Due to the unique properties of the coating, they are ideally to applications requiring a high light transmittance and a low g value.

  • Windows and Facades
  • Roofs
  • Large glazed bays and skylights
  • Conservatories

Performance

n order to achieve superior thermal properties and solar control glass with SGG COOL-LITE SKN must be used annealed, and glazing with SGG COOL-LITE SKN II must always be toughened or heat strengthened before assembly into a double-glazed unit (coating on face 2).

SGG COOL-LITE SKN meets the durability requirements of class C of European standards EN 1096-1 and -2.
