Building a Greener Future with the help of Privacy Glass

Privacy Glass is Contributing to Building a Greener Future

Everyday Choices, Lasting Impact

Every Earth Day reminds us that building a greener future isn’t just about big breakthroughs — it’s about the small, smart decisions that add up. In architecture and design, the materials we choose play a crucial role. The right ones can boost energy efficiency, reduce waste, and create healthier environments.

Privacy glass is one of those quiet innovations driving real change. From maximizing daylight to minimizing energy consumption, it’s a behind-the-scenes solution that supports sustainability. At
Privacy Glass Solutions™, we’re proud to offer technologies that help create spaces that are both high-performing and environmentally responsible.

Smarter Materials Mean Smarter Energy Use

Glass that shifts from clear to private with the touch of a button? That’s not just sleek — it’s sustainable. Our
Clarity solution helps buildings make the most of natural daylight, reducing the need for artificial lighting and lowering cooling costs.

With a simple command, Clarity transitions from transparent to opaque, providing privacy on demand — without sacrificing natural light.

Prefer touchless control? Clarity WAVE activates with just a wave of the hand. No cords. No curtains. Just modern, hygienic privacy that fits seamlessly into any space.

For blackout conditions — such as in healthcare or secure environments —
Lyto™ offers reliable, motor-free functionality that also improves thermal insulation.

Choosing Materials That Matter

Sustainability starts at the source. Glass is naturally recyclable, and many of our privacy glass systems can be recycled at the end of their lifecycle — offering a clear advantage over traditional blinds and shades.

We’re also improving how we manufacture. Products like
BetweenGlassBlinds™ and
Vistamatic® now incorporate 3D-printed plastic parts — a shift that reduces waste, cuts energy usage, and produces more durable, recyclable components.

Small decisions — like selecting recyclable materials or rethinking part design — create a ripple effect that lasts the life of a building.

Less Waste, Longer Life

BetweenGlassBlinds™ encase blinds between two panes of glass — protecting them from dust and damage, while reducing the need for frequent replacements.

Similarly, Vistamatic® privacy panels offer smooth, silent performance year after year, without cords or wires that can fail.

Fewer replacements mean less waste — and less maintenance for facility managers.

Creating Spaces That Aid in Building a Greener Future

Great spaces don’t just work well — they support wellness, too. Hands-free, easy-to-clean privacy glass is ideal for schools, hospitals, and high-traffic environments.

Solutions like Clarity WAVE and
Clarity VIEW help reduce contamination risk and simplify cleaning. When privacy is built directly into the glass, rooms stay cleaner — and feel cleaner.

Sustainability isn’t just a trend — it’s our direction forward. At
Privacy Glass Solutions™, we’re committed to helping designers, architects, and builders bring that future to life.

This Earth Day, we celebrate the big and small choices that shape better, more resilient environments. Often, the most powerful innovations are the ones you don’t even notice — until they make all the difference.
