JINAN EVERGREEN GLASS CO., LTD. employs aerospace-grade sealing technology to create vacuum glass with a 0.25mm vacuum cavity (≤10-3 Pa), maintained by laser-welded stainless steel edges. The proprietary Micro-Pillar Matrix (MPM) system—ceramic supports spaced at 25mm intervals—ensures structural stability under 100 kPa pressure, achieving a U-value of 0.45 W/(m²·K). This technology eliminates gas conduction and minimizes radiative heat transfer through advanced Low-E coatings (emissivity ε ≤ 0.03).
Standard insulating glass units (IGUs) use 12–20mm air or argon-filled gaps, achieving U-values of 1.1–1.6 W/(m²·K). However, gas leakage reduces argon retention to ≤80% within 8–10 years, significantly degrading performance. Moisture infiltration also leads to desiccant saturation and condensation.
