Glaverbel presents Planibel TOP NT, a low-emissivity, toughenable glass. Specifically designed for use in double glazing, Planibel TOP NT is a coated glass whose neutral appearance is in perfect harmony with current trends.

Since Planibel TOP NT can be toughened, glass processors with a toughening furnace can offer their customers shorter delivery times, smaller delivery quantities and replacement double glazed units - in other words, better service.

For architects and customers the benefits of this glass are its aesthetic qualities, which are identical to those of Planibel TOP N: a perfectly neutral appearance, very low reflection levels and high light transmission. This kind of performance makes Planibel TOP N a key European benchmark.
Planibel TOP N, TOP NT and Stratobel TOP N (laminated security/safety version) can be harmoniously combined in the same structure.

Planibel TOP NT's secret is the composition of its coating, specially devised by the Glaverbel R&D Centre. In fact, the R&D Centre's mission is to work today to develop the high-tech glass products of the future that better meet our customers' needs. Planibel TOP NT's soft coating ? perfectly capable of withstanding the toughening process ? is vacuum sputtered onto a clear glass sheet, giving it excellent thermal insulation properties. The coating has an exceptionally low U-value (1.2 W/m².K) and offers a level of insulation 60% higher than that of conventional double glazing.

Planibel TOP NT glass is designed for use in residential and commercial applications: broad glazed surfaces, conservatories, doors and windows.
