Dynamic Privacy

Complete privacy or transparency when you need and want it most. Allows you to control the lighting level (opacity) through the voltage controller.

Family security

Blocks 99% of UVA rays.

Temperature control

Smart solar control films reflect infrared light, providing cooler interiors and reducing HVAC costs.

High Return on Investment

Mitigate long-term costs associated with cleaning, cooling, and signage.

Dynamic Designs

Custom shapes and patterns add style and functionality to windows and partitions.

Optimized space

Replace thick walls with slim partitions or segment open floor plans with minimalist solutions.

Easy to clean

Eliminate fabric or electronic curtains that are hard to clean and gather germs, all while affecting the designs.

Enhance well-being

Provide light or privacy and give users the flexibility to control their space, achieving a greater sense of control and well-being.

Smart windows: their design and function

What are smart windows

Thanks to the latest advances in technology, there is now a substitute for traditional curtains and blinds. These are known as smart windows, which can take on the traditional functions of curtains and blinds and are even capable of improving their characteristics in certain respects, allowing us to improve the comfort and privacy in the living space, as well as save on energy costs.

How they work

Smart windows to which a “smart film” has been applied are capable of controlling the amount of light which enters from the outside. If one wishes to increase the privacy of the living space, the smart windows can turn opaque, or vice versa with the flick of a switch, enabling an electric current to act on the glass.

The smart film uses Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal (PDLC) technology: upon the application of an electric current, the particles align, increasing the transparency of the glass. However, when the electric field disappears, the particles become disorganized and the glass again turns opaque.

Classic Self-Adhesive Smart Film

The self-adhesive liquid crystal smart film is covered with adhesive (AB glue) on one side of the smart film, which is used to adhere to the glass surface.

Note: PDLC self-adhesive films should not come into contact with water, otherwise they will be discarded.

About Smart Film

Smart film is a new type of electronic light control product. The electronically controlled smart film is a liquid crystal/polymer hybrid material injected between two transparent conductor films.

PDLC film in the absence of an electric field is in an opaque state. When an alternating current is applied, the liquid crystal molecules align in an orderly manner, causing the electronically controlled dimming film to transition from an opaque (OFF) state to a transparent (ON) state. This is achieved through an adhesive interlayer of liquid crystal.

PET Class 60,009 Film – PDLC Glass. PNEC Film is different from the normal PDLC smart film. The operating principle of PNLC film is opaque: ON, clear, OFF. The electric field allows a rapid transition from the ON state to the OFF state and from the OFF state to the ON state. The Smart Film is typically applied to the glass surface or laminated between glass layers, making transparent glass more feasible.
