Clarity At The Flick Of A Switch
Unique and unrivaled, Clarity allows discreet observation and privacy, while maintaining a smart and modern feel. Switchable Glass at its very BEST!
It couldn’t be easier. With a simple on/off switch, Clarity applies an electrical charge to the glass, changing its state from opaque to clear. Releasing the switch, returns it from clear to opaque instantaneously. While transparent, you enjoy the uninterrupted views from your window or door, then when privacy is needed, the frosted state acts just like a blind, providing seclusion and security.
Clarity can be supplied in either single pane form or as a double glazed sealed unit. When double glazed, it also offers the benefits of improved thermal performance, offering greater control and comfort within any room.
