ToughSwitch

Wouldn’t it be great if you could achieve privacy with just the flick of a switch? Well, you can!

ToughSwitch™ by Tough Glass is the ultimate versatile switchable glass solution. It can be used for a range of applications including partition screens, windows, roof-lights & doors, security & teller screens and even serve as an excellent high definition projection screen. Switchable privacy glass gives you such flexibility to achieve privacy without the inconvenience of any bulky items such as curtains, blinds or shutters.

Our R&D team has worked extensively to combine only the best products from around the world to create this simple yet elegant product that architects and designers have grown to love. It’s also this R&D team that continues to test boundaries and develop new products in our state of the art lamination facility based in Perth, Western Australia. This continuing development is what puts us at the forefront of switchable privacy glass manufacturing.

Enhance your life with ToughSwitch™, the superior switchable glass

Why have a house with beautiful windows, if you spend most of the day with curtains blocking out the sun? With our Smart Glass Windows, you can have the best of both worlds. Switchable glass allows you to maintain full privacy without the need for bulky and intrusive curtains, blinds or shutters. Maximise your window space and say goodbye to tangled cords and wonky slats! Loved by architects and designers around the world, switchable glass will enhance any room, keeping your windows sleek and your view unobstructed.

How does it work?

Beautiful in its simplicity, Smart Glass Windows use innovative laminated glass technology to change the opacity of the glass in response to a voltage. This means you can get the most out of life and take complete control of the amount of light that can pass through. This is possible because a Polymer-Dispersed Liquid Crystal film has been skillfully laminated between two pieces of glass. With its versatile design, switchable glass can be used for partition screens, windows, skylights, doors or even as your very own high definition projection screen.

The ultimate privacy solution

Obtaining privacy shouldn’t leave you in the dark. Our switchable glass is the ideal choice if you want to keep your privacy without compromising on light. Its clever design means with the flick of a switch, the glass goes from transparent to opaque, like on-demand frosted glass. Our product is for every day and made for moments when you don’t want to be observed or simply don’t want to observe others. Switchable glass isn’t just for the home! It’s often used in professional settings to separate high traffic areas, for example, between the reception and boardroom.

Let there be light

When you want to open your space back up, just flick the switch on to return your glass to its transparent state. Bring in the day as switchable glass lets you safely bask in the sun’s warmth and take in the view. It’s also perfect for optimising a space’s natural light and highlighting the architectural details of the room.

    E.Taylor from Refined Exteriors
  • May I just say that your staff at Tough Glass are providing us with excellent service. We have never in all the years experienced such a service. I rang on Wednesday to request a couple of urgent panels for which we collected this morning. That truly is amazing!!

    Everybody should use Tough Glass and I would never use anyone else regardless of pricing like some do. I don’t think we have ever received a bad piece of glass from Tough Glass either. It’s a credit to you and your staff.
