Activ (self-cleaning glass)

• Active self cleaning glass saves labour, reduces the risk of damage caused by cleaning equipment, and gives windows a better appearance for longer. Activ has a special titanium oxide coating that breaks down organic material.
• Water also spreads over the surface of the glass to form a thin film that washes away and dries off quicky without leaving unsightly drying spots. If it rains relatively regularly, the glass will be cleaned automatically. During dry spells Activ is easily cleaned by hosing down or wiping with a soft cloth and warm soapy water.
• Although Activ has to be exposed to UV light to activates its unique properties, it does not need to be in direct sunlight. It continues working on cloudy days and during the night, and can be used in south-facing windows.
• Activ can be laminated with any SmartGlass interlayers, and it can be combined with other coatings in the smartglass range, such as Solarshield, SolarVue and CoolVue.
