Staines-upon-Thames switchable smart glass partitions FAQs

Do you cover areas near Staines-upon-Thames?
Yes. As well as Staines-upon-Thames we regularly cover Weybridge, Windsor and Slough, plus the rest of Surrey and South East. Survey and installation teams are arranged regionally.
Does smart glass make a room soundproof?
No. Switchable glass changes how the room looks, not how much sound passes through. Its acoustic performance is similar to other single glazed laminated glass, roughly Rw 34–38 dB in lab tests. For confidential rooms, combine smart glass with acoustic seals, sealed doors and attention to the ceiling void.
What happens to smart glass if the power fails?
Most PDLC smart glass turns opaque when power is lost, because it needs power to stay clear. The room keeps its privacy and still receives diffused light. The glass remains safe laminated glass in either state, and it returns to clear automatically when power is restored.
