Elevate window performance without adding extra panes

Guardian ClimaGuard IS 20 interior surface coating helps boost thermal insulation and solar control within insulating glass units. When placed on the fourth surface of a double-glazed unit with a minimum glass thickness of 6 mm, and combined with a 1.0 U-Value SunGuard™ SuperNeutral or eXtraSelective coating on the second surface, ClimaGuard IS 20 enables the glazing to reach a U-value of 0.9 W/m²K—delivering sub-1.0 performance without the need for triple glazing.

ClimaGuard IS 20 can also be applied to the sixth surface of a triple-glazed configuration to further enhance overall thermal performance.
