SunGuard Glass helps elevate performance, people and possibilities

Excess heat and glare caused by the solar energy from the sun can be a major source of discomfort in some indoor environments, especially those with glass roofs, and large areas of glazing. Solar control glass is ideal for helping to maximize natural daylight while reflecting a high proportion of solar radiation away from the glass, contributing to keeping the indoor space bright but cool.

Innovation

SunGuard has demonstrated that innovation never gets old, making history with bold strides in solar and thermal performance, energy efficiency and comfort, aesthetic options and expert support for our partners in architecture, fabrication and glazing.
