What is AcuraCoat®?
AcuraCoat® is Stewart Engineers' innovative on-line Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) glass coating solution. AcuraCoat® systems deposit layers of metal oxides just nanometers thick onto glass to form a very hard chemically bonded coating. These coatings are not only able to change the appearance of the glass, but also change properties like self cleaning, reflectivity, absorptivity, and transmittivity to best suit market demands.
Why AcuraCoat®?
Using the AcuraCoat® system has many advantages over traditional "Sputter Coating" technology. Some of these advantages include:
- Self-cleaning properties:
- Anti Viral
- Anti Bacterial
- Anti Fungal
- Anti Algal
- Significantly lower capital costs
- Lower manufacturing costs
- The AcuraCoat® allows the use of a single pane of glass, while Sputter Coating technology requires two
- The AcuraCoat® eliminates edge-deletion for Insulated Glass Unit (IGU) manufacturing
- Higher yields
- Unmatched throughput
- Increased shelf life, scratch resistance, and stain resistance
AcuraCoat® Applications
Acuracoat® products can be used in many different industries, spanning from the medical to architectural fields. Anti-viral and anti-bacterial properties of our CVD glass coatings make these products especially useful in hospitals as dividers and windows, while also being beneficial in commercial and residential settings for products such as tables and counter-tops.
