PRIWATT FILM

PriWatt™ smart film is composed of a thin film interlayer of liquid crystals dispersed in a polymer matrix (PDLC) laminated between two plastic substrates coated on the inner face with a thin layer of conductive material. By applying a small electrical current, its state can change from opaque to transparent and vice versa.

ACTIVE Privacy

Create private working and meeting spaces in an instant

Increase Productivity

Conduct important business meetings and presentations, without any distractions

Optimize space

Replace curtains, blinds or solid walls that create dust and block views

Privacy control

PriWatt™ Film allows you to make your glass transparent or opaque with the flick of a switch

BLOCK damaging RADIATION

Direct exposure to UV and Infrared radiation is not only bad for your floors and furniture but also to your health. Smart Glass blocks 98% of harmful UV rays and 95% infrared radiation. Protecting you and your patients.

ANTIMICROBAL PROPERTIES

The flat and non-porous surface of the Smart Glass helps to convert it to an ultra-hygienic & cost-effective alternative instead of traditional and disposable curtains.

IMPROVED HYGIENE

Smart Glass is ultra-hygienic and easy-to-clean. No more blinds and curtains, which were poorly rated in spreading of bacteria within healthcare & office facilities.

SECURITY

PriWatt™ Film adds a layer of security, decreasing the chances of intruders breaking in. The smart glass adds 0.4mm of very durable PDLC film, in effect strengthening the glass, without ever compromising your view.

DECREASE ENERGY CONSUMPTION

PriWatt™ Film is proven to minimize the effects of high/low external temperatures from affecting your interior temperature, essentially saving you on energy costs. Operating at 48V AC, Smart Glass consumes less than 5 Watts per square meter when on (transparent) and 0 Watts when off (opaque).

ECO-FRIENDLY

Smart Glass contributes to preserving the environment & reducing pollution—the LC molecules classified as non-toxic metalions, free from ozone-depleting chemicals and toxic compounds.

REAR PROJECTION

The HD display capabilities make it ideal for rear projection purposes.

BIOPHILIC PROPERTIES

Smart Glass incorporates natural light, space and place conditions into building the environment, which contributes to an overall healthier human experience for increased productivity and less absenteeism.

How it works?

Stimulated with electrical current, liquid crystal molecules line up and incidental light passes through, creating highly transparent PriWatt™ Film. When power is switched off, liquid crystals reorient themselves randomly, scattering light and the PriWatt™ Film becomes opaque.

Polymer-dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) belongs to a class of electrically, photonically and thermally activated technologies referred to as ‘Smart Glass’. In the past three decades, PDLC technology has been industrially developed in the worldwide scale and provided commercialized products mainly as electrically switchable ‘Smart Glass’ in the commercial and residential markets for privacy and security applications. 

Unprecedented Performance

  • PriWatt™ Film light transmittance is 88 % (Transparency) 
  • PriWatt™ Film haze lever only 2.8% 
  • Fast switching time (100 milliseconds from frosted to clear and 400 milliseconds from clear to opaque )
  • Cuts UV rays by 99%
  • Cuts IR rays by 95%
  • Consumes 0.5 watts per 1 Sq Ft  ( LESS than most alarm clock displays)
  • 10+ years run-life
  • Consumes 0 watts when in opaque mode
  • Our liquid crystals are perfect for HD rear video projection
