Frequently Asked Questions

How is Solarban 60 priced?
Per square foot, cut to your dimensions. Volume and project pricing available — send sizes and quantity for a same-day quote during business hours.

Solarban 60 vs Solarban 70XL — which do I need?
60 is the workhorse: balanced daylight and solar control for most storefronts and windows. 70XL blocks more heat for cooling-dominant buildings and west-facing elevations. We fabricate both.

Can you build it into an insulated glass unit (IGU)?
Yes — that's the standard application. The coating goes on surface #2 of a dual-pane IGU with argon fill. We can also match an existing IGU's make-up for a clean visual blend.

Is this for commercial or residential?
Both. Offices, retail storefronts, curtain wall infill, skylights, and residential window upgrades chasing energy code compliance.

Lead time and shipping?
7–10 business days for standard fabrication. Crated nationwide shipping or pickup in Melrose Park, IL.
