Kolbe officially launched its new privacy glass solution for today’s homeowners who want smart home technology and personalized living. Kolbe has partnered with Gauzy Ltd. to integrate LCG Smart Glass Technologies into select window and door products, for various levels of privacy on demand.
Premium Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal (PDLC) films are laminated between two panes of glass to create switchable smart glass. When electricity is applied, the glass changes from obscure to transparent, allowing adjustable shading. Single, as well as multiple, windows and doors can be controlled with a wall-mounted touch panel, remote or home automation system.
This new glass option is available in white or gray within a selection of Kolbe products including VistaLuxe WD LINE direct sets; Ultra Series casements, awnings, direct sets and swinging doors; and Forgent Series All Glastra casements, awnings and direct sets.
