3) Obscure window – In this glass, you will have an embossed pattern on one end, and a smooth one on the other. While the smooth end will be on the inner side, the embossed pattern will be on the outer. Inside of the obscure window products is consisted of low emissivity components.

Obscure window products are typically utilised in the outer walls of the double-glazing windows.

4) Reflective Glass – These products are used for efficiently protecting sunlight. While it is used for that specific purpose, it may look almost like a mirror from outside.

The glass is available in four colours, such as grey, brown, blue and green.
