Italian Which view should disappear?
We map views from corridors, workstations, reception and entrances. Only then do we decide whether the full height, one module or an eye-level band should switch.
Offer / glass partitions and glazed enclosures
Glass partition walls with switchable smart glass.
We design switchable glazing for meeting rooms, offices, reception areas, clinics, hotels and homes. A clear wall preserves light and visual connection, then turns frosted to screen the view without blinds, louvres or permanent frosting.

Application context
A wall is not one pane. It is a coordinated system.
A glass partition can combine fixed panes, doors, frames, seals, acoustic elements and electrical services. The active PDLC layer switches the view, but its size, zoning, wiring and controls must fit the complete enclosure. We therefore begin with plans, sightlines and the partition system rather than square metres alone.
DGF Classic suits a complete wall or module that switches together. DGF Segment can keep an upper band clear or control several zones independently. Not every pane must be active; combining switchable and neutral modules often produces a better result and budget.
Visual privacy does not automatically provide acoustic privacy. Where a room must protect conversations, glazing, frames, doors, seals and building interfaces must be engineered for the complete wall. PDLC remains one element of that system.
From function to detail
Five decisions that define a switchable wall.
These decisions cannot safely wait until installation. Each affects manufacture and use.
Which frame and door system?
Frame section, glazing thickness, tolerances, support and the door module must be known before active panes are approved.
Classic or Segment?
Classic switches the complete active surface with one signal. Segment is appropriate when users genuinely need independent zones aligned with the architecture.
Where should services run?
Cable exits, wiring, circuit count and an accessible power supply are coordinated with frames, ceilings, floors and electrical work before finishes are closed.
How does the user make the decision?
One room usually needs a labelled entrance switch. A floor of rooms may need scenes, groups and BMS while retaining clear local control.
Delivery process
From space planning to the finished wall.
- 01
Brief and sightlines
We review plans, room functions, wall modules, doors and privacy scenarios.
- 02
Technical coordination
We agree glass build-up, frames, processing, wiring, power supplies, controls and trade responsibilities.
- 03
Manufacturing approval
Final dimensions, pane orientation, cable exits and circuit labels are approved before lamination.
- 04
Installation and handover
We test every module, both states, switches, scenes, edges and service access.
Important before deciding
Common mistakes in switchable-glass walls.
Most problems begin when switchable glass is introduced after frames are ordered or services are closed.
- Do not order panes without final wall modules, frames, doors and cable-exit sides.
- Do not attribute acoustic performance to switching; it belongs to the complete partition.
- Do not specify switchable glass everywhere for effect; select modules that genuinely change use.
- Do not seal power supplies and connections inside ceilings or joinery without service access.

FAQ
Common questions about this application.
Does DGF deliver complete glass partition walls?
Scope is project-specific and may include active panes, power, controls, frame coordination and installation of the agreed solution. Complete-wall construction and requirements are confirmed before quotation.
Must the complete wall use switchable glass?
No. Only modules serving a real privacy need may switch; other panes can remain neutral where the design supports it.
Does a smart partition soundproof a conversation?
Not through PDLC alone. Acoustic insulation depends on glass build-up, frames, doors, seals and complete-wall interfaces.
Can the wall include a door?
Yes, as an agreed swing or sliding module. A moving leaf needs separate coordination of hardware, processing and a safe electrical connection.
What is needed for an initial quotation?
A plan or photo, indicative dimensions, module quantity, door information and a description of when privacy is needed are enough to begin.
