Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions

• What is smart glass? — Smart glass is a switchable glass solution that changes from transparent to opaque with the touch of a button, remote control, or smart system. It provides instant privacy while keeping a modern and elegant look.
• How does smart glass work? — Smart glass uses advanced switchable technology. When powered on, the glass becomes clear. When powered off, it turns opaque, creating privacy while still allowing light to pass through.
• Where can smart glass be used? — Smart glass can be used in offices, meeting rooms, homes, bathrooms, hotels, facades, clinics, retail spaces, and other areas where privacy and design flexibility are needed.
• What is the difference between smart glass and smart film? — Smart glass is manufactured as a complete switchable glass panel, while smart film can be applied to existing glass surfaces. Both provide privacy control, but the best option depends on the project type and installation requirements.
• Can smart glass be installed on existing glass? — If you already have existing glass, smart film may be the suitable option. For new projects or premium installations, smart glass is usually recommended for a cleaner and more integrated finish.

• Is smart glass suitable for bathrooms? — Yes. Smart glass is ideal for bathrooms, shower areas, hotel suites, and bedroom partitions because it provides instant privacy without the need for curtains or blinds.

• Does smart glass help reduce heat and UV rays? — Smart glass can help reduce glare and improve comfort. Depending on the glass specification, it may also support UV protection and energy efficiency.
