TG-CLEANoutdoor – self-cleaning coating

Active-cleaning TG-CLEANoutdoor glass is suitable for many glazing elements, especially those meant for the outdoors. It consists of a glass plate, of which one side is coated with a photocatalytic and hydrophilic layer.

This transparent coating is fixed to the glass surface and has a long service life.

The „self-cleaning“property works through UV light and water. Organic contaminants on the side exposed to the weather, such as dust, bird droppings or air pollutants, are dissolved via a photocatalytic reaction and washed away by the rain thanks to the hydrophilic surface property. The degree of self-cleaning function depends on several factors.
The nature and extent of the contamination, the amount of solar radiation, the installation site and the amount of rain play a crucial role.
