[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bo-kyung] HanGlass, a glass specialty company, is continuing to develop high-performance coated glass products in line with the government's Green New Deal initiative.

Since the first launch of Double Low-E glass, which has excellent energy-saving effects, in 2007, it has recorded a cumulative domestic sales volume of 6.5 million square meters over 15 years and holds about 80% of the Double Low-E market share.

In particular, the Double Low-E product 'SKN154II,' released in 2011, maximizes insulation effects and has excellent energy-saving performance, making it widely used in many schools, government offices, and large high-rise buildings.

Over 10 years of numerous window tests applying SKN154II have verified that Double Low-E glass not only has outstanding insulation performance but also reliable coating quality, excellent processability, and durability.

Recently, as insulation regulations have been gradually strengthened, the use of high-performance Low-E glass has become essential; however, Low-E glass performance varies significantly depending on the number of silver coating layers.

Low-E glass ranges from the commonly used transparent single Low-E glass in apartments to Double and Triple Low-E glass applied in high-rise buildings and government offices, with insulation performance differences of over 50% between single Low-E and double/triple Low-E glass.

A HanGlass official explained, "When installing high-performance windows with energy efficiency ratings of 1 to 2, which are applied as part of the public green remodeling under the government's Green New Deal project, glass of Double Low-E grade or higher is used."

The public green remodeling project remodels public buildings to enhance energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, responding to climate change. A total of 841 projects are scheduled this year, with major initiatives including high-performance window replacement, insulation reinforcement, and installation of renewable energy or high-efficiency heating and cooling systems.

He advised, "However, in the past, there have been issues where glass products different from those on the test certificates were delivered in some government procurement projects, resulting in rework. Therefore, it is important to verify that the glass delivered on-site is installed with the same specifications as the window test certificates."
