When the temperature soars, ordinary window glass just can’t handle the heat. And tinted glass darkens the view.

The table below compares the room-side center of glass temperatures of different glass types against two winter conditions.

LoE-366 provides exceptional fading protection. It blocks 95% of the sun’s damaging ultraviolet rays, protecting your furniture, carpets, curtains and wallcoverings for years to come.

During cold weather, the insulating effect of your windows has a direct impact on how your rooms feel.

The largest exposed surface of a window is the glass, and the temperature of the room-side of the glass directly affects the air temperature in the room. They better insulated the window glass, the warmer your room will be.

To maintain the best comfort during the winter, select a glass product that produces surface temperatures that stay above this point during the coldest outdoor conditions.

Tnemec is heavily invested in the development of innovative coatings designed to solve specific industry challenges, and has been for over 100 years. By focusing on performance testing and using top-of-line equipment, Tnemec ensures that every product offered is well-suited to exceed expectation in its intended exposure.

Using only high-quality binders, resins, pigments, and additives, Tnemec products are formulated to perform both in accelerated testing protocols and in the field. Tnemec tests and retests every product-following industry-recognized testing standards, like ASTM B117, ASTM D 4587, etc. – to qualify each coating’s ability to resist corrosion, UV light, abrasion and other causes of coating degradation.  

When choosing a coating system, there are many factors that are important to consider. However, sustainability in manufacturing and the environmental impact of a coating are increasingly being prioritized by consumers. 

Sustainability can be defined in a number of ways, and Tnemec is aligned with the definitions outlined in the U.S. National environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA). According to NEPA, the goal of sustainability is to, “create and maintain conditions, under which humans and nature can exist in productive harmony, that permit fulfilling the social, economic, and other requirements of present and future generations.” With this as a guiding principle, Tnemec stands by the three pillars of sustainability- environmental, social, and economic- when reviewing our products and company policies for their sustainable attributes.
