HIGH PERFORMANCE COATINGS<br />

high performance coatings<br />

Coating location<br />

Coatings are thin layers of metal applied to glass to improve solar performance. The first coatings utilized on building facades were<br />

reflective coatings which provide a mirror-like appearance and reduce solar heat gain by reflecting the sun’s energy away from the building.<br />

Today, the most popular coatings applied to glass are low-emissivity (Low-E) coatings. Coatings with low-emissivity properties<br />

have low heat transfer properties and offer higher light transmission than traditional reflective coatings.<br />

Viracon offers a broad selection of both reflective and Low-E coatings. Our coatings can be applied to clear or tinted<br />

glass substrates. In addition, a silk-screen pattern can be applied to the same surface as the coating for excellent solar<br />

performance and appearance.<br />

The specific coating needed for a given project is typically dictated by a required solar performance or a desired appearance.<br />
