Ecopane is Glass Systems branded name for the soft coated low emissivity glass we use.

The hard coated low emissivity glasses of yesteryear have given way over recent years to the new generation soft coated low E`s, largely due to changes in legislation. These more complex products give much better thermal performance and are a lot more neutral than the hard coats they are replacing – no more unsightly tints on the white net curtains!!

THREE TIMES MORE THERMAL INSULATION THAN STANDARD DOUBLE GLAZING

Sealed units using Ecopane offer three times as much thermal insulation than standard double glazing and will depending on the window frame, easily exceed the requirements of the latest building regulations, whether by WER or by Overall Window U value route to compliance.

Double glazed units incorporating Ecopane and having an argon gas filled cavity are some of the best performing sealed units on the market. In a double glazed unit they will have a centre pane U value of 1.20, and in a triple glazed unit a this can go down to 0.60 U value.

Our Eco Plus 1.0 range uses a higher specification Low Emissivity soft coat glass that will give a U value of 1.0 in a double glazed and 0.50 in a triple glazed unit.
