What is PRIVA-LITE Glass?

PRIVA-LITE or privacy glass – also known as smart glass or intelligent glass – is a switchable glass used for adaptive partitioning in locations that require customized privacy. This modern system utilizes Liquid Crystal technology to provide instant privacy at the flick of a switch through electronically controlled translucency.

Liquid Crystal molecules, in their natural state, are scattered randomly which creates an opaque frosted effect to block vision and allow for full privacy while still letting light through. These liquid crystals align when electricity is applied, causing the glass to instantly turn transparent.

What are the Applications of PRIVA-LITE Glass?

PRIVA-LITE glass can be used almost anywhere you would use regular glass and is installed in a similar manner as well. PRIVA-LITE glass can also be incorporated into double glazing or fire-rated glazing; curved, silk-screened, or sandblasted; and used as either a front or rear projection screen with high resolution for superb image reproduction.

Moreover, switchable glass is ideal for a variety of applications where transparent to opaque glass is required. Privacy glass can be used both interiorly and exteriorly for a wide range of design and media uses on:

• • Floor panels and counters
  • Display cases and screens
  • Front or back projection screens/multimedia walls
  • Windows, single or double glazed facades
