West Midlands manufacturing firm, Howells Patent Glazing, have announced their collaboration with Pilkington United Kingdom Limited to offer their new solar control product, Pilkington Suncool One 60/40 to their customers.
As the latest addition to the Pilkington Suncool Range, Pilkington Suncool One 60/40 is an off-line coated mid-range solar control product with a thermal insulation U-value of 1.0 W/m2K. It has been designed for use in commercial and high-end residential settings, to reflect heat back into the property and improve thermal efficiency.
With the benefit of medium solar control helping to keep the building cooler in the summer, a comfortable indoor temperature is maintained all year round.
Gary Howells, sales director at Howells Patent Glazing said: "We have been using products from the Pilkington product portfolio for over 30 years now for many reasons; they have a quality product, they always meet our time sensitive delivery dates, and have a fantastic back up customer service.
"We were really excited when they brought out the new Pilkington Suncool glass, as this was something we knew a lot of our customers have been calling out for - solar controlled glass, that lets in the maximum amount of light possible. With a lot of other solar controlled glass, the tint needed on the glass interrupts the amount of natural light entering through the glazing into the building. The new Pilkington Suncool glass resolves this problem, and we are excited to be able to offer it to our customers."
As the entry level product to the full range, Pilkington Suncool One combines excellent low-e properties with medium solar control performance. This makes it the ideal solution for smaller commercial projects, or those with flexible specification requirements, as well as in premium residential properties.
Howells are known for being a forward thinking manufacturing firm and are regarded by many as one of the UK's best glazing companies in their industry. Howells are extremely proud of their reputation and are constantly striving to develop the business further, pushing for another record year, for the 3rd year in a row.
The full Pilkington Suncool range is designed to help to reduce energy bills and carbon emissions of a building the whole year round.
