Sun protection in summerModern insulated glass allows short-wave solar radiation to pass through without hindrance, but the majority of long-wave heat radiation is reflected back to the interior.

Economy
Large window and façade surfaces allow plenty of light to penetrate deep into a building’s interior, thereby avoiding excessive use of artificial lighting.
Despite this light penetration, one decisive benefit of using sun protection glass is the huge number of options now available for minimising the amount of heat energy that penetrates a building, limiting the significant costs associated with air conditioning, as it costs much more to cool the interior of a building than to heat it.
