Experience the Future of Glass Insulation
What is Vacuum Insulated Glass?
Vacuum insulated glass (VIG), produced by Panasonic as Glavenir, is an advanced glazing solution that uses a thin vacuum layer between two panes of glass to achieve exceptional thermal insulation. By eliminating air between the panes, VIG minimizes heat transfer, making it far more efficient than traditional double glazing. This innovative technology is ideal for modern buildings, offering enhanced energy savings, noise reduction, and a sleek, space-saving design without compromising durability or performance. Whether for residential or commercial applications, vacuum insulated glass is a game-changer in sustainable and efficient construction.
Applications of Glavenir
Glavenir is a versatile solution for residential applications, offering exceptional insulation and adaptability. Its ultra-thin profile, significantly slimmer than traditional 18-24mm double glazing, makes it an ideal choice for retrofitting existing single-glazed windows. It seamlessly fits into most existing window frames, eliminating the need for major modifications. Whether you’re upgrading current windows or installing new ones, Glavenir provides superior insulation, energy efficiency, and timeless design for modern homes.
Why Vacuum Insulation Matters
Traditional insulating methods, such as double and triple glazing, are effective but can still have limitations in thermal performance. These methods may experience slight gaps in efficiency, where heat loss occurs during the winter and heat gain occurs during the summer.
Vacuum insulation eliminates these inefficiencies by creating a sealed vacuum layer between two panes of glass. This vacuum acts as a barrier to heat transfer, significantly enhancing thermal performance. Additionally, it reduces sound transmission, providing a quieter, more comfortable environment.
With Glavenir’s advanced vacuum insulated glass, your spaces stay warmer in winter, cooler in summer, and quieter year-round. This ensures enhanced comfort and improved energy savings, offering a reliable solution for sustainable and efficient building performance.
Understanding U-Value and SHGC in Glass
When selecting glass for your windows or doors, it’s important to understand two key terms: U-Value and Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC).
- U-Value measures how well the glass insulates. A lower U-Value indicates better thermal performance, meaning less heat is lost in winter and less heat enters in summer, improving energy efficiency.
- SHGC (Solar Heat Gain Coefficient) indicates how much solar heat passes through the glass. A lower SHGC means less heat from the sun is transmitted into your space, reducing cooling costs and improving comfort.
Choosing the right balance of U-Value and SHGC ensures your space remains comfortable year-round while maximizing energy savings.
The Science Behind Glavenir
At the core of Glavenir’s performance is its vacuum insulation technology, developed with precision by Panasonic. A microscopic vacuum layer between the glass panes eliminates convection and reduces thermal conductivity. This cutting-edge approach achieves outstanding energy efficiency and a U-value as low as 0.4 W/m²K, setting a new benchmark for insulating glass.
