Commercial Low-E Glass: Energy Efficiency for Modern Buildings

Commercial Low-E Glass refers to low-emissivity glass, which is treated with a special coating designed to reduce heat transfer. The glass allows natural light into a building while reflecting heat back inside, maintaining a consistent internal temperature. This type of glass is ideal for commercial properties that aim to reduce energy consumption and achieve a more sustainable design. At Ipswich Glass, we specialise in Commercial Low-E Glass for buildings, offering high-performance products that deliver on both functionality and aesthetics.

Commercial Low-E Glass works by using a thin metallic oxide coating, which reflects infrared heat back into the building. This reduces the amount of heat lost during colder months and minimises heat gain during the summer. It also blocks harmful ultraviolet rays, preventing fading of interior furnishings while maintaining a comfortable environment. Our Commercial Low-E Glass panels are engineered for maximum efficiency, making them perfect for large commercial installations, including office buildings, shopping centres, and institutional structures.

1. Hard-Coat Low-E Glass: This type of coating is applied during the manufacturing process when the glass is still hot. Hard-Coat Low-E Glass panes are known for their durability and are ideal for colder climates, where maintaining interior heat is crucial.
2. Soft-Coat Low-E Glass: This coating is applied after the glass has cooled. Soft-Coat Commercial Low-E Glass offers superior performance in solar control and UV protection, making it suitable for warmer climates. Ipswich Glass provides customised solutions, ensuring that our clients get the best product for their specific needs.
