The way Australians build is changing. There is growing demand for sustainability and amenity more than ever before, this is why we created the next evolution on our LightBridge™ double glazed product, LightBridge next™.
LightBridge next™ double glazed units control the flow of heat in and out of your home. The thermally efficient spacer technology, and addition of an acoustic performance interlayer, brings performance to the next level. Allowing you to have larger windows for optimal natural light, without compromising on thermal or noise comfort.
Comfort and Noise Performance
LightBridge next™ has improved thermal edge performance due to its non-conductive spacer. It also contains a specially formulated acoustic interlayer to reduce outside noise by 29%^ compared to ordinary 4mm LightBridge™.
Natural Light
The high performance materials which make up LightBridge next™ allow for larger windows, helping you meet design demands for more natural light and comfort.
Safety and Protection
The double glazing of LightBridge next™ has been tested to Grade A safety glass standards. It also contains UV protection, to prevent fading on furnishes and finishes.
