Insulating glass is used in residential and commercial construction and has risen steadily over the year to where the majority of all new and renovation construction today includes IG units. IG units not only save monthly heating and cooling costs but they also reduce the initial size and cost of the heating and cooling equipment required on a project. Insulated glass units, or IGUs, are designed to keep homes warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. An insulated glass unit commonly consists of two (sometimes more) panes of glass separated by a spacer material and sealed together at the edge. The insulating airspace is filled with air or a noble gas, such as argon or krypton inside.
A combination of Low-E coatings, tinted glasses, reflective coatings, silk-screened patterns, laminated glass products and a wide variety of insulating glass configurations are available to satisfy a wide range of performance and aesthetic requirements.
Midland Glazing Insulating Glass (IG) units are hermetically sealed combinations of two or more sheets of glass separated by a dry airspace. IG units improve thermal performance, significantly reducing heating and air conditioning costs. IG units also reduce interior condensation in cold climate.
Benefits
• Excellent thermal insulation and is an ideal energy-saving material.
• The dry air inside the enclosure renders the surface free from misting.
• More excellent efficiency will be if fill in argon or other inert gases.
Application
o Commercial / Residential Fixed and openable windows.
o Curtain Walls
o Storefronts
o Sloped / Overhead Glazing
o Windows of cars trains and ships.
o Glass doors of refrigerators, freezers, wine coolers, refrigerated display cabinets.
o Interior space in need of sound insulatio
