layered and then fused into a uniform panel, indelibly trapping controlled air bubbles within the
glass. The glass panels can be side lit to highlight the air-bubble images, patterns, and/or text
frozen within the glass.

IQ Glass
IQ Glass transforms the cold surface of glass into a source of heating. Connected to the electrical
wiring concealed within the walls of the room and frame of the window, IQ Glass heats spaces
with radiant heat - a healthy, sumptuous heat comparable to that of the sun, minus UV rays. In
single family residences, IQ Glass windows may be used as the sole heating source for an entire
home. Suitable for both retrofitting and new construction, IQ Glass can easily be installed in
windows, doors, ceilings, walls, pools, and aquariums. The IQ Glass heating system is connected
to and controlled by its own thermostat, although it may be connected to any thermostat on
the market. IQ Glass may even be controlled remotely, such as from one’s computer or car. A
microprocessor option regulates the glass temperature at all times, ensuring optimal energy
conservation. A variety of glass and accompanying features are available. IQ Glass is guaranteed
against moisture or condensation build up, as well as against an assimilation of dust particles in
between the panes.

Light-Diffusing Glass
OKALUX produces even room illumination without hard shadows. The light-diffusing property of
OKALUX is based on a light-fast capillary plate located in the space between the panes. OKALUX
can also be produced as curved glass or as OKALUX look-alike opaque panels. OKATECH is an
insulating glass in the intermediate space of which many different designs of wire mesh are
integrated as design elements with variable functions. The use of wire mesh focuses attention
not only on functional but also on aesthetic aspects. KAPILUX is an insulating glass with an
integrated capillary slab consisting of a large number of honey-comb structured thin-walled
transparent or white capillaries. This capillary slab can be integrated into the most different kinds
of insulating glass, resulting in a very good light diffusion. OKASOLAR is a light-directing solar
control insulating glass incorporating a panel of highly reflective louvre blades within the unit
cavity. Depending on the technical requirements of the project, different louvre positions can
be selected. Depending on the geographical orientation and inclination of the glass panes, solar
control can be achieved according to the time of year and the time of day.

Lighting
Cielos
Conventional luminous ceilings actually use relatively little lighting technology. They rely
exclusively on a maximum clearance between lamp and difusser - typically 300 to 700 mm
- in order to produce uniform illumination, and rarely offer many color options. Cielos is a
multi-colored luminous ceiling system comprised by the lowest-profile, wide-area luminaires
available. Cielos meets all the functional requirements of a luminous ceiling within a 70 to 150
mm depth, and the lighting extends all the way to the edge of the luminaire. Every module is a
self-contained luminaire element, fully equipped with ballasts and a double-diffuser chamber.
Light is actually diffused twice: first in a diffuser layer with backing, then in the safety glass with a
visually high-grade finish. The problem of eliminating any unwanted greenish hue is solved with
high-grade iron-free glass. Using glass also prevents aging and solves the problem of fire-load
regulations.
