Design & Glazing Notes
For energy efficiency solutions, select either SOL-R™ or Sunergy® low-E glass types. For noise reduction, select Acousta™ laminated glass. For structural and strength applications, both panels can be either heat strengthened or toughened with thicker and stronger interlayers such as SentryGlas® (SGP) or DG41. Decorative elements can be added with Vanceva® coloured interlayers and ImageTek™ceramic ink printed panels. For more details refer to Laminated Glass Design & Glazing Notes (Download).
