Enhanced neutrality*, even when tinted

Combining the neutrality of the SunGuard™ SNX 70+ low-E coating with the pleasing light grey aesthetic of Guardian CrystalGray™ tinted glass helps facades achieve a striking appearance  alongside strong solar performance. This product combination offers 47% visible light transmission which finds equilibrium in the level of daylighting properties it offers to interior spaces.  An enhanced solar heat gain coefficient of 0.23 helps to meet more stringent energy codes and improve occupant comfort by reducing excessive heat gain.   The brilliant aesthetic combination of SNX 70+ and CrystalGray provides greater opportunity for harmonization across the exterior façade to continue to provide enhance neutrality, however you look at it.

*Within our North American SunGuard Triple Silver coatings portfolio.
