SMART GLASS EC · PASSIVE SOLAR CONTROL
Smart Glass EC: shifts on command and holds the state without power
Shifts its tint on command, from clear to coloured, and holds that state with virtually no power. Solar and thermal control for façades and high-efficiency buildings.
Solar control, not blackout.
Electrochromic glass is built to manage the sun’s energy, not to hide what sits behind the glass. Even at its deepest tint the pane stays see-through: you keep the view while direct light and heat are cut back. It is the difference between shielding radiation and creating privacy.
If instead you need fast, continuous glare control, the answer is dimming: Smart Glass SPDThe state stays, the power doesn’t.
What sets electrochromic apart from every other glass in the range is bistability: power changes the tint, it doesn’t hold it. Once the chosen gradation is reached, the glass keeps it on its own, with no continuous draw. On a façade of hundreds of square metres that means governing solar gain all day for a negligible amount of energy — the reason electrochromic is the choice for buildings designed around efficiency.
How the glass tints.
A very low voltage drives an electrochemical reaction through the layers of the glass: ions migrate and the pane colours gradually and evenly; reverse the polarity and it clears again. The transition is progressive, running over a few minutes rather than switching instantly. It is a change of state meant to track the sun across the day, not to toggle on and off.
One surface, or a whole building.
Smart Glass EC is a made-to-measure supply in two forms: laminated safety glass, with the electrochromic layer set between the panes, or an insulating glass unit for the building envelope. Two-year warranty. Across large spans — whole façades that need to respond to the sun together — B-LOGIC can be integrated, the control platform that coordinates multiple surfaces through unified logic.

Every façade has its own constraints: orientation, scale, glass build-up. Tell us about the project and we’ll define the right electrochromic configuration together.
