• Thanks to the durability and safe-breakage characteristics of the glass,SGG SERALIT EVOLUTION can be used inbus shelters, information panels,advertising boards, etc.


Numerous possibilities

Façades

• SGG EMALIT EVOLUTION is an idealmaterial for façade-cladding (venti-lated opaque spandrel panels, wallcladding, etc). It can be used todesign surfaces with clean lines andto create attractive effects throughthe natural reflectance of the glass.

• SGG EMALIT EVOLUTION can also beintegrated in SGG CLIMALIT or SGG CLIMAPLUS double-glazed units.

• In laminated form, SGG SERALITEVOLUTION can be used for translu-cent spandrel panels, guarding,overhead glazing or footbridges,combining patterns with colour.

• An SGG CLIMALIT or SGG CLIMAPLUSdouble-glazed unit comprising SGG SERALIT EVOLUTION affordsseveral features, such as attractiveaesthetics, good visibility from theinside to the outside, solar shadingand screening against glare. Thesolar control performance of SGG SERALIT EVOLUTION varies withthe density and colour of the pat-terns, and can be further enhancedby combining it with a glass such asSGG PARSOL, SGG ANTELIO, SGG COOL-LITE, SGG COOL-LITE K , SK or ST.

SGG EMALIT EVOLUTION is available in a wide range of standard colours.For additional aesthetic effects, it is possible to enamel different substrate glasses:

SGG EMALIT EVOLUTION: numerous possibilities for cladding

Saint-Gobain Glass can also create bespoke colours or provide colour-matches on request, depending on the availability of lead-free paints.

With considerable expertise in screen-printing, Saint-Gobain Glass offers a widerange of standard patterns and colours (colours identical to the SGG EMALIT EVOLUTIONCLASSIC and METAL -range). Bespoke designs and colours can be designed forspecific projects (including the colours of SGG SERALIT EVOLUTION OPALE).

SGG SERALIT EVOLUTION : superior decoration

When used in partitions for example, SGG SERALIT EVOLUTION allows a good distributionof light whilst preserving the privacy of rooms.

In facades, SGG SERALIT EVOLUTION enhances the solar control performance of the gla-zing and helps reduce glare from direct sunlight. The spectrophotometric properties ofthe glass depend on the density and colour of the pattern.

Criteria for selection

The exterior appearance of a façade isinfluenced by :

• weather conditions (cloudy or clear);

• solar intensity depending on thegeographical position of the buildingand time of day;

• the orientation of the façade relativeto the position of the observer;

• the surroundings;

• the interior of the building (lightinglevels, the presence and colour ofinternal blinds);

• heat treated glass (toughened glasscladding or spandrel panels maygenerally show slight optical irregu-larities caused by the tougheningprocess);

• the colour of exterior framing.

We strongly recommend specifyingthe colour and type of SGG EMALIT EVOLUTION upon viewing largesamples in their destined applicationand location on site, in order to achie-ve the required aesthetics. Theyshould also be viewed with otherglass types intended for the same ele-vation.

NB : Colour-swatches are for indicativeor comparative purposes only. Due tocurrent printing techniques, an exactreplication of enamelled glass cannotbe achieved. The final choice of colour should bemade after viewing actual glasssamples.

SGG SERALIT EVOLUTION

SGG EMALIT EVOLUTION and SGG SERALITEVOLUTION are toughened glasses, asspecified in standard EN 12150.

• SGG EMALIT EVOLUTION is an opaquecoloured glass, obtained by uni-formly depositing a layer of enamelon one side of the glass.

• SGG SERALIT EVOLUTION is a colour-patterned glass. It is produced bydepositing an enamel pattern to oneside of the glass, through a textilescreen.

The new enamels are of the same

D e s c r i p t i o n

ColoursSGG EMALIT EVOLUTION is available in a standard range of colours.

Please note : To obtain a uniformcolour, we recommend using a singlethickness of glass. Colours vary slightlyaccording to the thickness of the baseglass.

SGG SERALIT EVOLUTION is available inopaque coloured patterns (SGG SERALITEVOLUTION COLOR) and translucentcoloured patterns (SGG SERALITEVOLUTION OPALE).

In addition to the standard range ofcolours featured, bespoke colours andcolour-matching services are available.The colours of SGG SERALIT EVOLUTION

COLOR are identical to the colours ofSGG EMALIT EVOLUTION CLASSIC andMETAL. Ask us for the colours of SGG SERALIT EVOLUTION OPALE.

Please note : The enamel deposited byscreen-printing is not as dense as thatobtained by enamelling, hence thecolours tend to be slightly lesspronounced.

Heat-strengthened glassFor certain applications, SGG EMALITEVOLUTION and SGG SERALIT EVOLUTIONcan be heat-strengthened in accor-dance with EN 1863 (please contactSaint-Gobain Glass).

nature as the glass itself. They arelead-free, and contain no cadmium,lithium, mercury or chrome VI *. Theyare fired at very high temperature, aprocess which simultaneously tou-ghens the glass. The enamels are com-pletely integrated into the surface ofthe glass, giving the decoration excep-tional durability and total stabilityover time.

SGG EMALIT EVOLUTION and SGG SERALITEVOLUTION must always be installedin accordance with current nationalregulations.

SGG EMALIT EVOLUTION and SGG SERALITEVOLUTION can be channel-glazed,incorporated into bolted glass assem-blies or mechanically fixed. Glass-to-glass and glass-to-metal contact mustbe avoided. When panels are installedadjacently, there must be a minimumclearance of 3 mm between each panel.

Heat Soak Testing is recommended forfaçade-glazing.

In order to preserve the originalappearance of the glass, we recom-mend that SGG EMALIT EVOLUTION andSGG SERALIT EVOLUTION are glazedwith the enamel or screen-print onface 2, facing the inside of thebuilding.

SGG EMALIT EVOLUTIONSGG EMALIT EVOLUTION can also beadhesively glazed (exterior structuralsealant glazing) and used in ventilatedor non-ventilated spandrel panels.

SGG EMALIT EVOLUTION is not intendedfor viewing from an internal aspectand should always be located in frontof a back-up wall or an opaque sur-face.

For pale colours, it is advisable to placea uniformly coloured backing behindSGG EMALIT EVOLUTION. With adhesiveglazing, it is also necessary to checkthat the adhesive is not visiblethrough the glass.
