Insulated Glass Unit



Glass Panels in Residential and commercial establishments plays a significant role in maintaining a comfortable living and working environment.  Glass has been widely used because it can allow amounts of daylight in your home , plus it provides greater aesthetic and protection against elements. However, ordinary glass panels can transmit unwanted excess heat specially in warm humid places like the Philippines. What people do to counteract the heat is through heavy usage of air conditioning which lead to excessive energy consumption.
