Our services and products

The Octoglass Group has been designing and manufacturing electrochromic systems for several years. During this time, we have carried out numerous studies in the field of organic polymeric electrochrome, hybrid inorganic electrochrome and fully solid-state electrochrome.

The need for privacy and protection from the bright sun is a natural human necessity. Thanks to Octoglass, people in cars can escape from the glare of the bright sun and glare by simply turning on their adjustable tinting windows. And at dusk, the degree of darkening can be reduced, allowing you to drive the car just as safely as with conventional glass.

Tension is constantly increasing in the world, in many cities and in all countries. Street crime, mass demonstrations, riots and even uprisings. Accidentally get in the car in a crowd of heated football young men, upset by the defeat of his team and eager to take out his anger at least on something and someone - the situation is not the most pleasant. And try to take refuge in your car during a road conflict, when the attacker has a mount, an injured gun or a baseball bat? Normal car glazing will not protect or save. In 1-2 strikes, you can break a regular car window and break into a car.

During mass disturbances, riots, robberies or road conflicts, the driver and passengers of the car are helpless against the force of public order violators and criminals. The metal roof and doors of a car can protect people from being hit with sticks, stones. But a conventional car glass cannot provide reliable protection against attack without the use of firearms.

The need for privacy and protection from the bright sun when it's needed is not just in automobiles. Electrochromic glass can be successfully used in railway, water and air transport in the same way as in cars.

Octoglass closely follows the changes and needs in the field of transport glazing and is actively involved in the development of electrochromic devices. For example, in 2019 Octoglass exhibited on the largest railway exhibition

The use of "smart" glazing in construction is still taking its first steps. Electrochromic systems are beginning to penetrate this segment of the industry, gradually taking up an increasing market share.

Octoglass already offers its customers electrochromic translucent designs for interior glazing. Electrochromic glass by Octoglass can be used for installation in cash modules, finishing of meeting rooms, executive offices, security and control areas. But such glass can also be successfully used in residential areas. Safety electrochromic glass can be used in swimming pools, showers, dining and other designated areas. There are no limits to the use of electrochromic glass, especially given the rich palette of tinted colors.

The system of electronic darkening of bulletproof glass, which does not bring additional distortion in the glass thickness of 4 centimetres and can stop even ammunition from a large-caliber rifle, is categorically important both on vehicles with hidden armor, and on military equipment, where reliable light disguise is important.

In 2019, Octoglass presented the world's first bulletproof glass for a car at the largest armament exhibition EDEX using a proprietary electrochromic glass transmission control system. The novelty aroused genuine interest among professional visitors to the exhibition.

Octoglass conducts R&D and SMEs in the field of electrochromic systems and translucent structures. Qualified specialists of the company, together with specialized equipment, can not only develop new compositions or coatings, but also conduct comprehensive research of the achieved results. And thanks to the use of modeling of electrochromic systems, it is possible to reduce the total time spent. As one of the results of research can act and prepare the control system, controllers, to function with the specific implementation of the electrochromic system.

The use of contaminated, even microscopic amounts of impurities, chemical components for the manufacture of electrochrome systems leads to failure to achieve the required parameters, as well as accelerated degradation of the resulting electrochrome system. To eliminate impurities, all substances used in the manufacture of electrochromic compositions require an increased degree of purification. Octoglass has a sufficient stock of its own equipment for the purification of chemical components used in the manufacture of electrochromic systems.

Propylene carbonate of increased degree of purification is used not only as a solvent for the manufacture of polymer or hybrid electrochromic systems, but also for various chemical operations. Octoglass chemists have at their disposal - own rectification system of propylene carbonate purification, which achieves the highest available degree of purification of the substance for industrial use.

Octoglass provides the opportunity to license the production of electrochromic glass to third parties, both in the Russian Federation and abroad. All technology of production of electrochromic glass, including all necessary operations and equipment, is fixed in regulatory documents and can be implemented as soon as possible at other enterprises. With this scheme of production, it is possible to localize the production of electrochromic translucent structures using organic polymeric electrochrome produced by Octoglass.
