INSTALLATION
Our Smartglass doesn’t need to be installed only to exterior facades, windows and doors but also to the interior, like curtain walls, glass partitions, cubicles, conference rooms even showers, and so on. The electrochromic Smartglass remains opaque when there is no current or when it is off, the glass turns transparent only when the electricity passes through it, also you can choose the level of transparency that you desire which can be adjusted by a remote control or by your Smartphone. Several companies are spending millions of dollars to find ways to curb the energy expenses and electochromic glass is the perfect answer for that, by providing privacy simultaneously saving big bucks on energy costs along with several other benefits.
This type of installation is not restricted only to commercial use but several homeowners and condo owners are installing this product in their homes to give that ultra modern clean look. Yes, smart glass is a niche’ market, today, but we will witness in our lifetimes that curtains and drapes are gradually going to the ‘Nokia and Kodak’, and Electrochromic Smart Glass by Smartglasscan Inc. is the ‘electric cars’. More and more people will choose Smartglass over germs and dust collecting, allergies storehouse and space guzzling curtains.
