Technolite®
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. You can either utilize a single power module to operate multiple panels or additional units across the room for a more individual choice of control.

How the Technology Works
Understanding how switchable glass works helps customers feel more confident in choosing it for their home or commercial project. Technolite® uses advanced PDLC (Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal) technology that makes the glass change from clear to opaque instantly. The process is simple, safe and highly reliable — giving you modern privacy without any moving parts, blinds or maintenance-heavy mechanisms.
PDLC Technology (Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal)
The level of transparency depends on the running voltage and this provides the ability to have a dimming control and not only On/Off positions. Still, it will be a mistake to compare the switchable glass with a normal single pane clear glass. As visible in the below representation there are multiple layers and liquid crystal molecules encapsulated between the glass layers which will naturally create some additional haze and reduce transparency compared to a single clear pane of glass.
Controls & Integration
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.
Why Choose Technolite® Switchable Glass
Technolite® switchable glass combines industry-leading PDLC technology with British-standard installation and support. As experienced switchable glass suppliers and installers in London, Glass Technique offers full-service delivery: free samples, on-site surveys, supply and certified installation across London, Surrey and Essex. Below are the key reasons customers choose Technolite® for commercial and residential projects.
Privacy on Demand
Switchable glass gives you 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
Technolite® 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 and a better working environment. When combined with double or triple glazing options, switchable glass contributes to improved U-values and helps maintain consistent interior temperatures.
Durable & Long-Lasting
Technolite® is 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. We provide warranty and aftercare options for London installations to give you peace of mind.
Flexible Product Options
Technolite® is available in multiple configurations to suit any project: single glazed, double-glazed units, fire-rated assemblies, curved and shaped panels, and bespoke sizes for façade, partition and bespoke furniture applications. We can integrate switchable glazing into shower enclosures, conservatory roofs, storefronts and acoustic partitions to match both aesthetic and performance requirements.
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.
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.
Residential Use (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 premium.
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.
