VK DESIGN
HIGH-TECH SMART GLASS FOR PRIVACY
VK Design is a glass system for both indoor and outdoor installation,
and thanks to PDLC technology it can switch rapidly from ON (transparent) to OFF (opaque), for dynamic control over privacy.
and thanks to PDLC technology it can switch rapidly from ON (transparent) to OFF (opaque), for dynamic control over privacy.
When switched OFF the liquid crystals are arranged in a random, unordered fashion:
the glass is opaque, screening what lies behind it from view. When switched ON, the electrical current makes the molecules align
neatly, and the glass becomes transparent.

CUSTOMIZATION
TO THE MILLEMETRE
TO THE MILLEMETRE
VK Design glass can be customised to the millimetre in size, and is available in all thicknesses present on the market, as well as in a range of colours and types, such as extra clear, bronze and grey. Its variety and flexibility mean it can be used in a vast range of different contexts.

LONG-LASTING
AND EASY MAINTENANCE
AND EASY MAINTENANCE
VK Design is a durable product, tested for over 100,000 hours in operation, and with electrical components that are easy to maintain without impairing the glass.
SAFETY
Mechanical resistance
VK Design is rendered even more resistant to mechanical stress thanks to PDLC technology, and the plastic materials laminated within the glass: it has achieved class 1(B)1 certification, the highest in the laminated safety glass category, meaning it does not break into separate pieces when smashed, as well as passing the test for resistance to heat and humidity.
Certification
- Harmonized standard UNI EN 14449:2005
category 1(B)1 impact test - Harmonised standard UNI EN 14449:2005
resistance to humidity and heat - UL safety certification
for the US market
Water resistance
VK Design is safe in humid and wet environments. IPX7 tested, it can be installed in bathrooms and shower enclosures.
SOUNDPROOFING
ACOUSTIC PROTECTION
AND CONFIDENTIALITY
AND CONFIDENTIALITY
VK Design offers particularly strong performance in terms of soundproofing, tested in independent laboratories with a result of Rw 38 dB for glass measuring 55.4 mm in thickness. This is an important quality in working environments and healthcare facilities, where obscuring the view of certain spaces is not sufficient, and confidentiality, concentration and rest are also fundamental.
ENERGY SAVING
Low energy
consumption
consumption
When switched on, the energy consumption of VK Design is extremely low: 1.2 W per square metre, less than an LED lamp. It can also be switched on and off using a programmable timer.
SUN SCREENING
In opaque mode, VK Design blocks out UV rays and ensures greater sun screening than traditional double glazing, keeping room temperatures lower and more comfortable, and reducing energy consumption from air conditioning systems.
