PLANITHERM ONE can be combined with many other glass products, providing a multitude of high performance, multi-functional glazing options, including:

• Solar control glazing (e.g. SKN COOL-LITE)
• Acoustic insulation (e.g. STADIP SILENCE)
• Safety and security (e.g. STADIP / STADIP PROTECT / SECURIT)
• Self-cleaning glazing (e.g. BIOCLEAN)
• Obscured and/or decorative glazing (e.g. MASTERGLASS / Traditional Patterned glass)

PLANITHERM ONE T meets the durability requirements of class C of European standards EN 1096 and are marked.

Positioning the coating on Face 2 affects the performance values in particular the g-value which changes to 48%

* Light and solar performance according to EN 410. Solar factor - is the amount of sun's heat that is allowed to enter the room e.g. 54% of the sun's heat comes into the room.

PLANITHERM ONE must always be assembled into a double or triple glazed unit. The coating is generally placed on face 3 (and 5) of the unit, though it is possible to place the coating on face 2 without affecting the U-value. Appearance may vary slightly, so it is important to maintain consistent coating positioning throughout a particular façade.

Glassolutions also offers manufacturers tailored support to assist them in producing the PLANITHERM range of high performance sealed units.
