G. Vassiliou (THERMO GLASS) Ltd can provide a large variety of architectural and interior glass solutions as: energy efficient glass for double\/triple glazing and structural applications, tinted, laminated, toughened (tempered), acoustic insulation, safety glass, anti-vandal, deco.<\/span><br \/>\n<div class=\"fusion-sep-clear\"><\/div><div class=\"fusion-separator fusion-full-width-sep sep-none\" style=\"border-color:#e0dede;margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;margin-top:10px;\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Even though glass creates practical possibilities by exploiting light, on the other hand energy requirements must be contented.

With the use of a <strong>Low Emissivity<\/strong> glass, energy efficiency can be measured by a glazing\u2019s <strong>U-Value<\/strong> and <strong>G-Value<\/strong> (Solar Heat Gain Coefficient). <\/em><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Low-E<\/strong> (low emissivity) glass refers to a product where coating-metal layers dumped throughout the glass surface so that heat is reflected on the side of the glass from where it is originated. Therefore heating and cooling costs in spaces can be significantly reduced as well as costs for artificial lighting since coatings are at the same time able to transmit substantial amounts of daylight. Furthermore it provides a home protection from UV rays fading furniture.<\/p>\n<p><strong>U-Value<\/strong> is the indicator of the <strong>rate of transfer<\/strong> of heat which passes through the window. The lower the U-Value the greater will be its efficiency to resist heat flow. Our company can deliver combinations of glazing which can reach up to 1.0 [W\/(m\u2082K)].<\/p>\n<p><strong>Solar heat gain\/g-Value<\/strong> measures how much of solar heat is blocked. As the strength of the sun results in increased temperature in a space, a lower g- value represents less solar gain and thus makes it more suitable for warmer climates.<\/p>\n<p>Further to coating used in double insulating glazing, energy efficiency can be enhanced by: the use of inner sealant that will fill the gaps between the side edges of the spacer bars that unite the glass panes offering premium elasticity and insulation; the use of a variety of spacer bars &#8211; a greater gap contributes to better acoustic performance; the insertion of an inner gas such as Argon where U-value can be significantly improved.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-one-third fusion-layout-column fusion-column-last fusion-spacing-yes\"
