Glass walls and windows have become a big part of modern homes and offices. But with clear glass comes the challenge of privacy and light control. That’s where Glasstronn offers a smart solution — PDLC Switchable Smart Film. This innovative film helps you enjoy open spaces while controlling privacy and light, all with a simple switch.

Let’s understand how PDLC Smart Film works and why it’s gaining popularity in homes, offices, and commercial spaces.

What is PDLC Switchable Smart Film?

PDLC Film stands for Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal Film. It is a special type of Switchable Glass technology that can change from clear to frosted when you turn the power on or off. The film is applied to existing glass surfaces, making it a flexible option for both new constructions and retrofits.

When the film is powered on, the liquid crystals inside it align to make the glass transparent. When powered off, the crystals scatter, turning the glass opaque and giving you privacy.

How Does It Work? — Simple Science

Inside the PDLC Switchable Smart Film, tiny liquid crystals are mixed within a polymer layer. This layer is placed between transparent electrodes.

• Power On: Crystals align, allowing light to pass through — the glass looks clear.
• Power Off: Crystals scatter randomly, blocking light — the glass looks frosted.

This smart control of light and visibility makes it ideal for modern spaces.

Where Can You Use PDLC Film?

• Residential Spaces: For bathrooms, living room partitions, or even bedroom windows.
• Office Spaces: In meeting rooms, cabins, and partitions to switch between open and private modes.
• Retail Stores & Hotels: To create dynamic display areas or private spaces on demand.
