FAQ

TECHNICAL SPECS

What is difference between smart glass, switchable glass, dimming glass and electric glass?

There is no difference! These are all the same product that switches from transparent to opaque with a power supply. Dimmable glass is smart glass that has a dimmable controller wired to it, allowing it to slowly transform from transparent to opaque with the dimmer.

What happens when there is a power failure? Is my smart glass left clear? or opaque?

In the event of a power failure smart glass will return to its default opaque state. The glass is only clear when it is powered on, just like a lightbulb.

Does Smart Glass make any sound when it is turned on and clear?

Smart glass does not make any sound when it is turned on or off.

Does Smart Glass come in different colours or designs?

We offer various colours including pink, green, blue, yellow, grey but our most popular color is white. Please note that the tint is visible in both the transparent and opaque state, we cannot make the colours switch on and off.

What is Smart Glass?

Smart/Switchable glass consists of two layers of transparent conductive film sandwiched together with PDLC material inbetween. The film is then laminated between two pieces of glass. When electricity is applied to the film the liquid crystalsl align and the glass becomes transparent. When the power is turned off, the liquid crystals return to their normal, scattered positions and result in opacity.

What is the price range?

The price of switchable glass varies with each project because it is custom made. For budgeting purposes you can use a range of $85 to $110 per square foot.
