Switchable smart glass / design–manufacture–installation
Glass that gives a space a second state.
Clear when daylight and openness matter. Frosted when visual privacy is needed. DGF designs the active pane, power, controls and installation as one coherent system.

More than an active pane
Switching takes a second. A sound project starts much earlier.
Switchable glass is not a ready-made screen added at the end of a project. Dimensions, active area, wiring, power supply and controls must work with the frame, electrical design and the way the space will be used.
DGF therefore carries the solution from functional review to commissioning. Technology remains discreet while the user sees clean architecture and one simple privacy action.
- 01
Space function
We start with who needs privacy, in which situation and across which part of the glazing.
- 02
Pane engineering
We define dimensions, glass build-up, active area, zoning and cable-exit direction.
- 03
Power and controls
We coordinate the power supply, cable route, wall switch, remote or building controls.
- 04
Installation and commissioning
We verify detailing, both glass states, service access and intuitive everyday operation.

About Digi Glass FactoryDGF solution family
The right product follows the decision—not the name.
A full pane, independent zones, colour, an opening window or extended controls—each variant answers a different project need.
The application defines the solution
The same technology. Different conditions in every space.
A meeting room is shaped by meeting patterns, hospitality by intuitive operation, homes by daylight and healthcare by formal project responsibility. We begin with the environment—not a catalogue.

From a partition wall to a wardrobe. Explore specific applications.
Real project evidence
We do not present renderings as completed projects.
Videos and stills document real glass, actual lighting and built details. The result is always confirmed for the specific project.

A room that stays open day to day and private during a meeting.

One wall with several independent privacy zones.

An active pane within a visually light barrier.
From first question to handover
One process instead of four disconnected elements.
A good installation aligns the glass, frame, electrical work and operation before manufacture begins.
- 01
Brief and review
A plan, photo, indicative dimensions and intended function establish the right direction.
- 02
Solution design
We confirm the glass variant, build-up, zoning, edges, wiring and control method.
- 03
Manufacture and coordination
The pane is made to final dimensions while the installation is coordinated with framing, electrical work and joinery.
- 04
Installation and handover
We commission the system, test switching and hand over a clear operating method.
Knowledge before a decision

FAQ
Key questions before the first conversation.
How does DGF switchable smart glass work?
An active PDLC layer changes how light is scattered when power is applied. The pane switches between clear and frosted, obscuring recognisable images without mechanical blinds.
Is the glass made to measure?
Yes. Dimensions, shape, active area, any zoning and cable direction are defined before manufacture. A finished active pane cannot simply be cut to size on site.
Does the frosted state provide blackout and sound insulation?
No. The frosted state transmits diffused light and manages views, not sound. Blackout and acoustics must be designed separately for the complete partition.
When should DGF become involved in a project?
Before final panes and frames are ordered and services are closed. Cable routes, power supplies, controls and service access can then be coordinated cleanly.
