A Legacy of Industry Firsts
Solarban® glass has a long history of industry leadership defined by meaningful firsts. Over the years, the brand introduced the first post-temperable low-e glass, the first triple-silver low-e glass and the first quad-silver low-e glass—innovations that helped shape the direction of high-performance architectural glazing.

Solarban® 70 Glass
The most proven triple-silver-coated low-e glass in the industry, Solarban® 70 glass delivers an ideal balance of solar control and visible light transmittance. Its neutral aesthetic, unmatched performance and unique insulating value make it the top choice for architects who demand energy efficiency and design excellence. In a 1-inch insulating glass unit, very few products can deliver a 0.28 U-value with air.
Solarban® 60 Glass
A long-standing benchmark in high-performance glazing, Solarban® 60 glass helped establish a new standard for solar control and daylighting. It blocks 62% of solar energy while allowing 70% of visible light to pass through, making it a versatile solution for a wide range of commercial and residential applications.
Solarban® 65 Glass
A modernization of our popular Solarban® 60 glass, Solarban® 65 glass is engineered to meet today’s stricter code standards and sustainability goals while maintaining a clear, color-neutral look. The addition of Solarban® 65 glass means that the Solarban® glass name will continue to be the standard for performance and aesthetics for the next generation.
