What
What is Smart
Glass?
Smart switchable glass is a type of controllable glass, and the transparency of the glass is in your hands! With the flick of a switch, the glass becomes transparent from opaque and vice versa.
This unique feature allows designers to incorporate new technologies while moving toward minimal design. One of the main applications of smart film is to be installed in glass office partitions.
In this case, there is no need for curtains or frosted films without any flexibility in tint adjustment! So, with self-adhesive smart films, offices have more space and light, as sunlight can go through all the glass partitions all over the office.
While this design is eye-catching, it may not be applicable without providing a suitable solution to maintain privacy. SmartPro glass offers high-quality smart switchable glass and smart films.
How
How does Smart PDLC Film work?
Smart privacy glass is the name of glasses in which the PDLC film is incorporated into the glass. This film can be attached to already installed glass or laminated to create laminated glass.
Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal (PDLC) consists of micron-sized droplets of liquid crystal dispersed in an optically isotropic polymer matrix. This smart film can be electrically switched from a light-scattering or opaque “off state” to a non-scattering or transparent “on state”. In the “off state”, the Smart film/Privacy film appears milky white due to the refractive index mismatch encountered by incoming light at the liquid crystal/polymer interface.

Smart Glass VS Smart Film
When choosing between smart glass and smart film, it’s essential to understand their distinct characteristics and applications. Switchable glass is a high-performance solution integrated directly into the glass structure, offering durability and a sleek finish, ideal for projects. On the other hand, smart film provides a more flexible and cost-effective alternative, designed for retrofitting existing glass surfaces without the need for full replacement. The table below highlights key differences to help determine the best option for your project.
Smart Film | Smart Glass | |
|---|---|---|
Structure | Smart film is a thin, flexible sheet of polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) material that can be applied directly to existing glass surfaces. When an electrical current is applied, the PDLC layer changes from opaque to transparent. | Smart glass consists of two or more layers of glass with a layer of Smart Film in between. |
Applications | Smart film is better suited for indoor applications or temporary setups. It’s a more cost-effective solution and is often used for retrofitting existing windows, glass partitions, and displays. | Smart glass is more robust and weather-resistant, making it suitable for both internal and external use in high-end projects. |
Installation | It can be easily applied to any flat glass surface, which makes it more versatile and easier to install usually not requiring complete glass replacement. | Smart glass is manufactured in factory as a complete unit and then installed on-site. It’s more complex to install since it requires special fittings and electrical connections during construction. |
Cost | Smart film is generally more affordable and offers a more flexible and budget-friendly solution for retrofitting and smaller projects. | Smart glass tends to be more expensive due to the complex manufacturing and installation processes. |

FAQ
No. There is no need to change the window, frame or glass in most cases.
For self-adhesive smart film the maximum one piece size is 1500*3200mm and for laminated smart glass is 1800*3000mm.
Normally the lead time for the smart film is 7-10 working days depending on the required dimensions and quantities.
Yes. With the use of a projector, the image is retro projected onto the surface of the glass to offer a high definition image.
