Frequently Asked Questions
At AIS Glass, when we refer to “heat reflective glass,” we mean glazing that actively reflects the sun’s radiant heat away from your building while still letting in natural light. For example, our AIS Opal product is described as “a heat reflective glass with solar control properties that reflect the sun’s heat away from the building while allowing natural light to brighten the interiors .” Unlike clear float glass , solar control glass has a specially coated surface, often metal-oxide-based, that reduces solar heat gain, keeps interiors cooler, and lowers reliance on air conditioning.
Our heat reflective glass features a durable outer coating applied during manufacturing, which reflects and absorbs solar radiation before it enters the building. For example, AIS Opal is coated using CVD, which makes the coating robust over time. When sunlight (including near-infrared and UV rays) hits the glass, a large portion is reflected, while the rest that does pass through is diffused. This means less heat is transferred indoors, lowering internal temperature and reducing the load on your cooling systems. The result: spaces that stay cooler, brighter, and more comfortable.
At AIS Glass, we stress that heat-reflective or sun control glass helps reduce electricity bills by reducing the amount of heat entering the building. Solar control glass reduces solar heat gain, keeping the interior of your property cooler while allowing ample natural light to enter. With less heat coming in, you don’t need to keep your air-conditioners running as hard or as long, which translates into lower energy consumption. The cooler ambient conditions reduce the workload of the fan and compressor, and sustained daylighting lessens the reliance on artificial lighting. So, you save on both cooling and lighting.
Choosing AIS’s heat reflective glass offers multiple advantages. First, it enhances occupant comfort by reducing interior temperature rise, even in harsh sunlight. For instance, AIS Opal offers solar control and UV protection with a durable coating. Secondly, it helps reduce operational energy costs with less reliance on AC and lighting. Thirdly, it protects furnishings against fading, as our solar control glasses, such as Opal and its Trendz version, offer anti-fade properties. Lastly, these heat reflective glasses enhance building aesthetics with a range of colours and patterns in our product line, making your structure look modern while performing intelligently.
Normal float glass is essentially transparent, allowing solar radiation, including near-infrared heat, to pass through without a barrier. Sun protection for glass windows, on the other hand, includes a specialised coating of metal oxide or similar materials that reflects a significant portion of solar heat and light. While reflective glass still allows visible light to pass in, it rejects or blocks more heat and UV than standard glass. So, compared to normal glass, heat reflective glass leads to lower heat gain, better privacy (in some designs), improved energy efficiency and an upscale façade appearance.
Yes, at AIS Glass, we design our solar control glass, such as AIS Opal and our solar control lines, for applications ranging from residential spaces to large commercial buildings and facades. AIS Opal is suitable for exteriors and offers a range of colours and thicknesses to match architectural requirements. Our sun control glass has numerous applications, including use in residential and commercial buildings. Whether you are looking to reduce your living room’s electricity consumption or improve façade performance in an office tower, heat-reflective glass from AIS offers flexibility in all aspects.
