Saint‑Gobain Glass introduces COOL‑LITE® SKN 155 & SKN 155 II: the perfect balance between performances and refined aesthetic
With the launch of COOL‑LITE® SKN 155 and SKN 155 II, Saint‑Gobain Glass sets a new benchmark for high‑performance façades, where energy efficiency, comfort, and design excellence come together seamlessly.
The new COOL‑LITE® SKN 155 & SKN 155 II deliver an exceptional balance of natural daylight and solar protection with 50% light transmission and a solar factor (g value) of 27% in standard configuration, for bright, comfortable interiors with reduced solar heat gains and lower cooling demand, helping buildings perform better.
Beyond performance, the new coatings bring a refined, neutral aesthetic to contemporary architecture. With low external reflection and a consistently elegant appearance at any viewing angle, COOL‑LITE® SKN 155 & SKN 155 II support bold architectural visions without compromise.
Designed for flexibility and sustainability, the products are available in annealed and to‑be‑tempered versions and on PLANICLEAR®, DIAMANT®, and ORAÉ® low‑carbon glass, helping reduce both embodied and operational carbon.
With COOL‑LITE® SKN 155 & SKN 155 II, Saint‑Gobain Glass continues to shape façades that feel good to live and work in, today and tomorrow.
COOL-LITE® SKN 155 & 155 II
COOL-LITE® SKN 155 and SKN 155 II are highly selective solar control coatings designed for high performance façades. They combine excellent daylight transmission with effective solar protection, delivering an optimal balance between thermal comfort, energy efficiency, and refined neutral aesthetics.
COOL-LITE®
COOL-LITE® are Saint-Gobain Glass Solar control glass; Assembled in insulating glazing units (IGU), they help reducing overheating within buildings while letting the daylight in. Offering homogeneous aesthetic for large facade, they help to reduce energy needs, hence operational carbon emissions.
The technology behind solar control and low emissivity is a thin transparent coating of metallic oxides, deposited on one or two glass panes of a double or triple glazing unit. Invisible thermal shield, this coating retains the heat inside the building and captures the sun heat to keep it outside.
