When it comes to architecture, beauty and comfort go hand in hand. A building’s exterior can captivate passersby with the perfect shine. At the same time, a bright interior can help guests, residents, and employees feel both relaxed and motivated. Sadly, many buildings lose this luster with time as their beautiful facades deteriorate, leaving them overlooked and undervalued.
Luckily, architects, homeowners, and glass manufacturers can now take advantage of ClearShield Eco-System, an award-winning technology with over 40 years of proven success in protecting the glass from contamination and deterioration. Clearshield’s unique formula allows it to both refreshes old glass and give life to new glass, all the while reducing maintenance costs by 50%.
Beyond the cost savings, Ritec’s Clearshield boasts impressive environmental benefits. In 2019, the global glass market was valued at over $115.8 billion, with expectations to exceed $283.26 billion by the end of this year. This growth presents alarming environmental consequences as atmospheric emissions from glass melting activity contribute heavily to global climate change. Ritec aims to combat these harmful emissions with environmentally friendly, “non-stick,” simple to clean, low upkeep building techniques.
Resistance to fading, staining, and deterioration markedly increases the lifespan of glass. Moreover, ClearShield Eco-System’s architectural benefits help protect the glass from contamination during construction so that construction itself poses less risk to the glass’s integrity and shine.
Ritec has developed several solutions for various supply chain applications, including for architects, glass manufacturers and installers, glass processors and fabricators, and maintenance and end-users.
Customers can apply Ritec ClearShield Eco-System’s solution to a number of surfaces, such as solar panels, which helps maximize solar energy transmission while lowering the cost and frequency of cleaning. Application in architecture can help decrease cleaning costs and frequency while retaining the natural appearance and original light transmission. ClearShield’s use for decorative glass minimizes fingerprints and stains while maintaining the visual impression and intended design. Clearshield also reduces cleaning time and effort for automotive glass while increasing clarity, safety, and comfort. Application for marine purposes makes cleaning more practical, convenient, and stain-resistant. The use of Clearshield on interior glass prolongs the glass’s immaculate appearance while reducing residents’ cleaning time and effort.
