The new tile features a single rather than a double layer of glass, with each tile weighing only 5.2kg. This, combined with its flexible structure, improves ease of installation. Hanergy says that it is using ultra-white tempered glass, which has a transmittance level of 91.5 per cent, and is durable and able to withstand heavy impacts.
