Laminated Smart Glass Technologies
The following films are available as laminated smart glass for projects worldwide, or as raw material rolls and sheets to be laminated by qualified glass fabricators
WHITE
White PDLC Films provide a clean, natural, and aesthetic switchable glass solution, allowing privacy when you need it, and an open atmosphere when you want it
DARK
Dark PDLC Films support advanced architectural and interior design strategies, and are applicable across all industries and applications, including automotive and aeronautics
PATTERNS
Laser patterning with non-visible lines support blinds or custom designs for a dynamic and sophisticated privacy and light-control solution that replaces traditional shutters
VIZIO
Active and Passive Projection films allow HD displays to become transparent for 100% utilization of windows, as LCG® switches from transparent to opaque
HIGH TEMP
Outdoor grade high-temperature products maintain full optical and mechanical performance in extreme temperatures ranging from -30°C to +90°C

FAQ
Questions and Answers
Yes. Gauzy offers both films for lamination by fabricators, and a wet adhesive retrofit film, allowing any piece of existing glass to become LCG®.
Gauzy PDLC films can turn from completely opaque to completely transparent and the other way around in less than 0.1 seconds
Gauzy is the only provider of completely optimized PDLC films suitable for outdoor use. Our High-Temp LCG® and Solar Control LCG® are well suited for outdoor conditions.
Smart glass consumes low voltage and low power consumption. the product is driven by our patented controllers LCG® which consumes on average 3 Watt/m2.
LCG® smart glass is cleaned just like any ordinary glass, with a soft cloth and glass cleaner.
Yes. Gauzy’s Solar LCG® smart glass products reflects IR light, therefore reducing temperatures inside a building by up to 15 degrees C, making cooling systems consume less energy. 10 sqm of our transparent displays systems consumes less than 1 LED bulb, making advertising more polite and ecofriendly.
