VacuMax Vacuum Insulating Glass

Jan. 14, 2026

The latest generation of VacuMax Vacuum Insulating Glass (VIG) offers even better thermal performance and enhanced aesthetics. It is exclusively manufactured with Solarban 70 solar-control, low-e glass by Vitro, an innovation that enables an impressive 79% improvement in U-values. Glass now achieves wall-like R-values of up to R20, setting a new benchmark in thermal insulation. The product also features significant visual enhancements, with vacuum ports eliminated and “getters” concealed for a cleaner aesthetic.
