lumisolar vig®

The future of insulation, now thinner than ever!
COVIPOR INDUSTRIES is redefining the boundaries of thermal engineering with the launch of LUMISOLAR VIG® (Vacuum Insulating Glass). This cutting-edge solution replaces the traditional gas chamber with a complete vacuum, virtually eliminating heat conduction and convection. With an ultra-thin profile — between 8 mm and 12 mm — LUMISOLAR VIG® achieves thermal performance superior to that of conventional triple glazing, with thermal transmittance (Ug) values in the region of 0.4 W/(m²K). Thanks to its micro-spacer technology and reinforced hermetic sealing, we guarantee exceptional durability and crystal-clear transparency. It is the definitive choice for urban regeneration projects and contemporary architecture, where structural lightness and maximum energy efficiency are non-negotiable requirements.


LUMISOLAR VIG®: the intelligence of vacuum at the service of comfort.

The best results

LUMISOLAR VIG® is not just a new product, but a tool that enables us to offer a top-quality solution without compromising the architectural aesthetics of our city centres.

Urban Regeneration and Heritage Conservation

The main competitive advantage of LUMISOLAR VIG® lies in its ultra-thin profile (8 mm to 12 mm). In historic centres, where the replacement of old window frames is often restricted by aesthetic preservation regulations, this solution is revolutionary.
  • Full Compatibility: Allows installation in narrow profiles and frames, originally designed for single glazing, without the need to replace the original window structure.
  • Efficiency Without Visual Impact: Offers the performance of triple glazing whilst maintaining the elegance and original design of buildings, facilitating the approval of urban regeneration projects.

High-Performance Sound Absorption

Unlike conventional double glazing, where the gas (argon) or air still allows sound waves to propagate, an absolute vacuum is the ultimate acoustic insulator.

  • Barrier to Urban Noise: The vacuum eliminates the transmission medium for sound frequencies. Even at a thickness of just 8 mm, LUMISOLAR VIG® achieves sound attenuation levels ($R_w$) superior to much thicker and heavier double-glazed units.

  • Comfort in High-Traffic Areas: It is the ideal solution for buildings situated on busy thoroughfares, ensuring a quiet indoor environment without the need for bulky acoustic laminated glass that overloads the fittings.

Thermal Efficiency and Structural Lightness

With a thermal transmittance value ($U_g$) of 0.4 W/(m²K), this product outperforms most current triple-glazed solutions ($U_g \approx 0.6$ to $0.8$).

  • Load Reduction: Weighs about a third of an equivalent triple-glazed unit. This results in less stress on the aluminium or PVC profiles and fittings, extending the service life of the entire glazed opening.

  • Operational Sustainability: The drastic reduction in heat loss through conduction and convection enables immediate savings on heating and cooling, positioning Covipor as a leader in providing solutions for nearly zero-energy buildings (nZEB).
