This glazing has a winter value of R-10, the highest insulated glass we offer. Designed for cold climate applications.

Special Order glass makeups are also available
Note: MC Low-E represents multi-coated manufacturing process. Performance specifications should always be included in writing of a project spec.
We often receive questions regarding plant sensitivity to Ultraviolet Light

All of our MC Low-E glazings reduce damaging U.V. light. Reducing U.V. is important for growing plants & protecting tender seedlings. Fact: No ultraviolet light requirements have been documented for plant growth according to Denver Botanical Garden's Horticultural Department and published reference materials. Using MC Low-E gives plants a tremendous advantage since it will greatly reduce the amount of cold & warm spots in the area increasing plant growth & room comfort. We also offer commercial grower's polycarbonate (which naturally blocks almost 100% of U.V.) However, this will yellow in about 5-10 years, is not aesthetically pleasing, and doesn't give the performance of the MC Low-E.
