Overview

## Privacy on Demand

Electronically tintable PDLC glass that switches instantly from transparent to opaque. Ideal for office partitions, healthcare privacy screens, luxury bathroom enclosures, and boardroom windows where on-demand privacy is essential.

How Switchable Glass Works

Technolite® switches from clear to opaque at the flick of a switch. Now with the option of endless configurations, ranging from 12 different colour shades, curved, double & triple glazed, fire rated, variable security levels and even shaped glass, Technolite® grants flexibility in building designs and space management.

When powered (Switched ON), the power module turns the Technolite® Glass transparent, and once the electrical current stops (Switched OFF), the smart glass returns to an opaque/translucent state. The level of transparency depends on the running voltage, providing the ability to have a dimming control and not only On/Off positions.

Technolite® uses advanced PDLC (Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal) technology. Multiple layers and liquid crystal molecules are encapsulated between the glass layers, giving you modern privacy without any moving parts, blinds or maintenance-heavy mechanisms.

Controls & Integration

KNXWall SwitchCrestronControl4AppRemote

Technolite® can be controlled via a simple wall switch, remote control, touch panel, or integrated into building management and home automation systems (e.g., KNX, Crestron, Control4). We offer bespoke control options — from a single switch for a bathroom to networked control across a multi-room office fitout. Our installers handle the electrical and network setup to ensure safe, code-compliant operation for London properties.

Applications in London

Technolite switchable glass delivers measurable value across London's diverse building stock — from period conversions and apartments to modern offices and hospitality venues. Below are the most common applications we install throughout London, Surrey and Essex.

![Technolite Switchable Glass installed across London — Glass Technique Ltd](https://gt.glass/images/products/switchable-glass/pdlc-manufacturing.jpg)

01

### **Office Partitions & Meeting Rooms**

Use switchable glass to create flexible meeting rooms and private spaces without sacrificing daylight or the open-office feel. Switchable partitions provide visual privacy for client meetings and confidential calls while maintaining an elegant, transparent appearance when privacy is not required. Ideal for law firms, creative agencies and co-working spaces across central London.

02

### **Residential (Bathrooms, Windows, Conservatories)**

For London homes and apartments, switchable glass brings modern convenience and luxury: frameless shower enclosures that go opaque for privacy, living spaces that convert into private sleeping areas, and conservatory roofs that reduce glare while preserving views. Technolite is particularly popular in high-end apartments where space and light are at a premium.

03

### **Hospitality & Retail**

Hotels, restaurants and retail stores in London use switchable glass to enhance guest experience and secure merchandise displays. In hotel suites and conference areas, instant privacy improves guest satisfaction; in retail, switchable glass creates dynamic displays that capture attention and protect stock when needed. We work with hospitality fit-out teams to meet both design and compliance needs.

Why Choose Technolite Switchable Glass

### **Privacy on Demand**

Instant, electronic privacy at the flick of a switch. When powered, the PDLC film becomes transparent for clear views and natural light; when switched off it turns uniformly opaque for full privacy — ideal for meeting rooms, bathrooms, shower screens and bedroom partitions. Unlike fixed frosted glass, Technolite provides privacy only when you want it, keeping interiors bright and flexible.

### **Energy Efficiency**

Helps control glare and reduce solar heat gain while preserving daylight — lowering cooling loads and improving occupant comfort. In London offices and homes this can translate to measurable energy savings. When combined with double or triple glazing, switchable glass contributes to improved U-values and consistent interior temperatures.

### **Durable & Long-Lasting**

Built for longevity. The PDLC film and laminated glass assemblies are engineered to withstand daily switching cycles, commercial wear and UK climate conditions. Our installations follow best practice for electrical connections, framing and sealing to ensure a reliable, low-maintenance solution with warranty and aftercare options.

### **Flexible Product Options**

Available in single glazed, double-glazed units, fire-rated assemblies, curved and shaped panels, and bespoke sizes for facade, partition and bespoke furniture applications. We integrate switchable glazing into shower enclosures, conservatory roofs, storefronts and acoustic partitions.
