DE NEWS SUCHE PRODUCTS REFERENCES ARNOLD GLAS SERVICE CONTACT ORNILUX® Bird Protection Glass COMBINE COMPLEX WINDOW AND FAÇADE CONCEPTS WITH OPTIMAL BIRD PROTECTION ISOLAR ORNILUX® | Experts estimate that around 115 million birds die each year in Germany because they are unable to recognize glass panes and fly into the façades of buildings. Therefore, since 2017, there are legal requirements for urban land-use planning of cities and municipalities. These requirements impose an obligation to check for bird strikes on buildings as well as reduce the risk of bird strikes. With the ORNILUX® product family, we offer a variety of certified solutions that enable both transparent and clearly visible architectural space and façade concepts and have been proven to reduce bird strikes. We’ll be happy to advise you on the design of your optimal façade solution. ISOLAR ORNILUX® Our ORNILUX® variants: To provide birds with optimum protection and still be able to design flexibly, there are ORNILUX® solutions with tested glass structures: Invisible bird protection ORNILUX® Mikado oHT – invisible bird protection in the insulating glass unit ORNILUX® Mikado oHT – invisible bird protection on the exterior surface Elegantly designed markings ORNILUX® design lines and dart oHT You can learn more about the individual glass design variants for bird protection here: ORNILUX® mikado oHT (with temperable coating option) ISOLAR ORNILUX® mikado Function: ORNILUX® mikado coatings have been developed to ensure bird-friendly glass façades, while keeping the protective coating practically invisible to the human eye. The inspiration for this textured coating came from nature – the delicate, spider-web-like appearance is barely noticeable, yet very effective. ORNILUX® mikado glass can be used in all windows and façades, like any conventional insulating or laminated safety glass. A combination with other functions such as solar control or thermal insulation in the insulating glass is possible without any problems. Especially in the USA, where bird-friendly façade design has been codified by law in a growing number of states for quite some time now, ORNILUX® mikado has proven its high protective effect many times over. Applications: Façades, windows, roof glazing, spandrel glass, windbreak, partition wall, balcony glazing, winter garden glazing, noise barrier wall, noise reduction glazing, animal enclosure glazing and glass flood walls. Glass Types*: Multi-pane insulating glass (double glazing, triple glazing), laminated safety glass, tempered safety glass, heat strengthened glass and float glass. Properties: The ORNILUX® mikado coating is barely visible to the human eye. For birds, however, it is visible. Since birds have four types of photoreceptive cones in their eye’s retina, they can perceive UV radiation, besides numerous other colours – and hence even the ORNILUX® coating. Inspired by nature, a net-type structure is applied to the glass using bionic technology. This structure resembles a spider web and reflects the light. Certifications/Certification Mark: ORNILUX® mikado glass has been tested as a laminated safety glass and insulating glass in combination with different thermal insulation and solar control layers in various flight tunnel testing systems. All of the above glass types were avoided by a significant proportion of the birds in the tests. Apart from this, most ORNILUX® mikado glass types also meet the criteria for bird-friendly glazing of the American Bird Conservancy (assigned to the “Effective” category). ORNILUX® mikado one oHT (with temperable coating option) ISOLAR ORNILUX® - Naturinformationszentrum - Karwendel - Germany Function: The bionic technology is also used in ORNILUX® mikado one. Our goal in developing this new product was to modify the coating in such a way that it is resistant to influences of weather conditions and thus ideal for use on exterior glass surfaces (level 1). The barely visible net-type structure also effectively breaks through reflections on surfaces –which in turn also helps reduce bird strikes. Another advantage: By using it on level 1, further functional coatings can be added on the next level 2. Applications: Façades, windows, roof glazing, spandrel glass, windbreak, partition wall, balcony glazing, winter garden glazing, noise barrier wall, noise reduction glazing, animal enclosure glazing, glass flood walls Glass Types*: Multi-pane insulating glass (double glazing, triple glazing), laminated safety glass, tempered safety glass, heat strengthened glass, float glass Properties: The ORNILUX® mikado one glass is equipped with metallic coatings. This process is in demand, particularly, when visible markings are required as design element of a façade. Certifications/Certification Mark: ORNILUX® mikado one glass has been tested as laminated safety glass with solar control function and as insulating glass in combination with various thermal insulation and solar control layers in flight tunnel tests by the American Bird Conservancy and it meets the criteria for bird-friendly glazing (assigned to the “Effective” category). ORNILUX® design lines and dart oHT (with temperable coating option) ORNILUX® design chrome oHT Function: ORNILUX® design involves visible markings on the glass pane. This glass from the ORNILUX® design family is always used when elegant design is required to function as a design element and as bird protection at the same time. ORNILUX® design chrome markings produce maximum contrast in reflection as well as transmission. Thus, for the first time, this new coating makes it possible to combine highly effective bird protection at level 1 with an attractive and exclusive design. The high degree of effectiveness of the two markings – lines and dart – has also been confirmed by tests conducted in the flight tunnel at Hohenau-Ringelsdorf, Austria. ORNILUX® design chrome can be used as float glass or tempered safety glass. The basic tempering of the glass is not necessary, but if desired, it can be made as tempered safety glass. Applications: Façades, windows, roof glazing, spandrel glass, windbreak, partition wall, balcony glazing, winter garden glazing, noise barrier wall, noise reduction glazing, animal enclosure glazing, glass flood walls Glass Types*: Multi-pane insulating glass (double glazing, triple glazing), laminated safety glass, tempered safety glass, heat strengthened glass, float glass Properties: In ORNILUX® design, a new coating process has been used for the first time, which complements the screen-printing process used until now. Due to the visible markings on the glass, birds perceive the glass as an obstacle. ORNILUX® design is available in the variants dart 9-90 and lines 5-95. *Depending on tested structures, there may be some restrictions on the glass types.
