HOW IT WORKS
Guardian Reveal uses a low-voltage electrical
current to arrange liquid crystal molecules into a
pattern that makes glass transparent when turned
on. Turned off, the LC molecules revert to a
random pattern, diffusing the light and causing the
glass to become opaque.
OFF = OPAQUEON = CLEAR

Guardian Reveal transitions the glass from transparent clarity to
serene privacy in a single click. Turn the glass on to reveal clear,
bright views. Turn it off, and a gentle opacity conceals all but
the simplest of forms.
Privacy control. When Reveal is turned on, a low-voltage current
renders the glass brilliantly clear, offering unobstructed views and
welcoming abundant light. Flip a switch to turn off the electrical current,
and in less than one second, the glass becomes an opaque screen,
providing discreet privacy.
Extraordinary flexibility. Spaces become public, private, and public
again, based on the need at hand. Bring privacy to exterior windows
and interior walls in any number of settings… health care, retail,
hospitality, office buildings, institutions. Combine Reveal with Guardian
glass performance coatings to add value and tailor your offerings
to your customers’ needs.
Dependable technology. Reveal begins with our high-quality float glass,
laminated with a liquid crystal film and PVB (polyvinyl butyral) or EVA
(ethylene vinyl acetate) interlayer. Based on tried-and-true technology,
Reveal is ready for use in exterior window units and interior glass walls,
windows, doors and more.
