Create your vision—with a view

If you can imagine it, you can build it with SunGuard® HP Neutral Plus 50. This high performance, low-E glass allows architects the freedom to explore interior and exterior light. Typically, high transparency means high heat and ultraviolet light. With HP Neutral Plus 50, buildings minimise solar energy gain while allowing maximum visible light transmission for virtually any application. Design distinctive buildings with glass that offers structural integrity, uniformity, strength and optimum clarity.
