SageGlass Marine

Electronically tintable glass - an intelligent and dynamic solar control solution and so much more

Performances

Whatever day rhythm passengers on a ship have, SageGlass® Marine has the unique property to adapt to every activity happening at every moment during the day. Basically this glass will reduce the cooling load at sea by dynamically adapting to the sun path and angle at all times. Passengers experience an exclusive feeling of well-being and comfort and will spend more time on the ship. As a consequence of the dynamic characteristics, costs for maintenance on blinds and shades both externally and internally will eliminated.

The lowest set point at 1% light transmission will control glare to an absolute minimum creating an environment pleasant to both passengers and crew.

SageGlass® Harmony is the newest generation providing a smooth transition that speaks to the human eye, to super high-level designs as well as to residential areas such as cabins and lounges.
