Applications
Pilkington Arctic Blue™ is ideally suited to both hot and cold climates. It can be specified as toughened or laminated glass, and is therefore ideal for any applications whether commercial or domestic, where unique aesthetics or innovative design is desired.
To provide additional thermal insulation, it has to be combined with a low-emissivity glass in an insulating glass unit.
Benefits
Improved solar performance compared to traditional tinted float glass, preventing heat entering the building and therefore reducing the need for air-conditioning

High visibility properties providing a crisp, undistorted, natural view from the interior
High daylight transmittance when compared to other tinted glasses, reducing the need for artificial lighting
Low internal and external reflection
Low UV transmittance
Additional thermal insulation performance when combined in an insulating glass unit with a low-emissivity glass
Can be laminated, toughened, bent and enameled using standard techniques
Can be used in monolithic form or incorporated in insulating glass units
Available in 4 mm, 6 mm and 10 mm thicknesses
