<p><strong>Key features</strong></p>
<ul><li>Industry-leading insulation performance for approx. 6 mm thick glass (non-tempered type)
<ul><li>Heat-transfer coefficient: 0.7 W/(m2K)</li>
<li>Lineup also includes approx. 8 mm thick glass with heat-transfer coefficient of 0.58 W/(m2K) (tempered type)</li>
<li>Considerable energy savings simply by replacing old glass</li>
<li>Layers with glass to create doors with unprecedented insulation performance</li>
</ul></li>
<li>No vacuum exhaust hole on the surface of the float glass (non-tempered type): A clean, flat appearance with no protrusions (tempered type) enables enhanced transportation efficiency</li>
<li>Lead-free vacuum sealing material allows for global use due to its safety and environmental friendliness</li>
</ul><h3>Global expansion of Glavenir technology with out worldwide business partners</h3>
<p>Glavenir’s insulation performance is approximately eight times better than conventional single-panel glass. The average lifespan of homes in Europe and the US is said to be two to three times longer than that of homes in Japan, with many of these homes having a large number of single-panel windows. Replacing these windows with Glavenir has the potential to reduce air conditioning energy consumption on a global scale. In fridge-freezer display cases, thin Glavenir panels can reform energy-saving performance and designability.</p>
