Benefits of Cielora™

Cielora™ is a 0.76 mm thick PVB interlayer film for glass panes with the same properties as other S-LEC™ Films for safety glass:

  • Safety – Shatterproof, absorb impact, and prevent penetration.
  • Security – Resist the force from a hammer or glass cutter.
  • UV Blocking – Block out 99% of ultraviolet rays.
  • Letting through natural light, keeping optimal transparency in the transparent zone.

The added unique feature of Cielora™ is its extended all-natural gradient from clear to translucent glass to an opaque frosted look, offering a creative way to combine privacy and transparency in a tailored application in laminated glass.
