Low- E glass is made by coating metallic particles to the glass. The most efficient type is “soft coat Low-E”. This market has most of its application in flexible packaging of different materials. Low-E literally means low emissivity that means a surface emitting low levels of radiant heat. All surfaces reflect, transmit and absorb heat, so, it reduces the amount of heat that is transferred. It is not only used to reduce heat transfer but also to stop UV radiation waves in visible light.

Low-E glass is used to improve a window’s performance by creating “thermal barrier” for the prevention of energy loss. It is used for improving energy efficiency, less UV damage and reduces condensation also.

Segmentation: Global Low-E Glass Market

Global low-e glass market is segmented into six segments such as type, coating type, coating material, glazing, technology and end-user

• On the basis of type, the market is segmented into two notable segments hard coat low-E glass and soft coat low-E glass
  • In November 2018, Schott AG launched their new product CONTURAN tough AS, under the CONTURAN brand. The product is launched as an alternative to the mechanically stresses display glazing. CONTURAN tough AS offers a high anti-reflection coating, long service life and durability
• On the basis of coating type, the market is segmented into two notable segments passive low-E coating and solar control low-E coating
  • In October 2018, JSC “SALAVATSTEKLO” developed the new online configurator and software tool to calculate the luminous and thermal characteristics of different type of glass products of JSC “SALAVATSTEKLO”.
