Saint-Gobain Glass has strict tolerances on its coloured glass and ensures through precise quality control that the tinted glass is the same within a batch and across batches - year after year. There are plenty of possible applications.

APPLICATION

When an attractive appearance is needed, PARSOL gives colour to space. When basic solar control properties are required, PARSOL is the solution, with low light reflection.

PARSOL, like PLANICLEAR, is designed for universal applications where an attractive aesthetics or simple solar control characteristics are required:

  • Interior decoration, fitting and furnishing applications. 
  • External uses of single or insulated glass units for facades and overhead glazing.

HANDLING & PROCESSING

With PARSOL the design options and instructions are the same as regular transparent glass. PARSOL can require heat treatment to avoid the risk of thermal breakage, depending on the application or location.
