Manko to Fabricate Gauzy LCG® Glass

Manko Window Systems, Inc. now certified to manufacture Gauzy LCG® (Light Control Glass).

Manko Window Systems, Inc. and Gauzy Ltd. today announced Manko becoming a Gauzy Certified Partner, enabling them to fabricate LCG(R) Smart Glass.

Manko is currently working exclusively with Gauzy’s Liquid Crystal films. LCG(R) (light control glass), also known as smart glass, switchable glass, or privacy glass, is dynamic, allowing a traditionally static material to become alive and multifunctional. Active glass technology PDLC film is manufactured by Gauzy. This film is supplied to Manko, who laminates it to create LCG(R). PDLC allows for the control of various forms of light including visible light, UV, and IR. With electricity, the film turns from clear to opaque for privacy, displays that become transparent, and temperature control.

This collaboration opens a vast gateway to business throughout the Midwest. Manko is based in Manhattan, Kansas with two additional manufacturing/fabrication facilities in Colorado and Iowa. Each facility is equipped with cutting-edge glass fabrication equipment. Manko is represented by both manufacturer and independent reps throughout the Midwest market.

Manko has been expanding its dynamic glazing options. This partnership enables local manufacturing and delivery of industry leading smart glass. Manko’s existing clientele can now buy switchable glazing from a trusted manufacturer.
