PITTSBURGH, March 9, 2010 – PPG Industries (NYSE:PPG) will showcase advanced architectural glasses and coatings at the 2011 American Institute of Architects’ Convention in New Orleans, May 12-14, booth 1635, such as:
• CLARVISTA(TM) shower glass is an innovative glass for bath and shower enclosures and doors that, with regular maintenance, looks newer longer than other shower glass products.
• DURANAR(R) powder coatings feature the durability, brilliant color, mica effects and custom-batching capability of Duranar liquid coatings, but emit virtually no volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
• Duranar ULTRA-COOL(R) infrared-reflective coatings deflect heat from buildings to reduce urban heat island effect and air-conditioning costs. They meet steep-slope, cool roof requirements for ENERGY STAR(R), Title 24 and LEED criteria, and they are available in a broad palette of light and dark colors.
• Duranar VARI-COOL(R) coatings combine ULTRA-Cool infrared-reflective technology with pearlescent, polychromatic coatings that shift color according to ambient lighting conditions and the angle from which they are viewed.
• SOLARBAN(R) R100 glass is a neutral-reflective, solar control, low-emissivity (low-e) glass with a proprietary hybrid coating technology. With visible light transmittance (VLT) of 42 percent and a solar heat gain coefficient (SHGC) of 0.23, Solarban R100 glass has a 1.79 light-to-solar gain (LSG) ratio up to 29 percent greater than that of competing transparent-reflective, solar control, low-e glasses.
• SUNGATE(R) 400 passive low-e glass is manufactured with a magnetron sputtered vacuum deposition (MSVD) “soft coat” that helps commercial buildings in heating-dominated climates retain heat from the sun and reduce winter heating costs.
