WINDOWS, SUNROOMS AND SKYLIGHTS

Better daylighting, cleanliness and clarity ... to enhance your well-being!

 

The award-winning durable Ritec ClearShield® protection on the surface of glass in windows, sunrooms and skylights:

 

  • Saves cleaning time, as it is always easier to clean and keep clean

  • Ensures cleaner glass without the pain, as stubborn deposits are more easily removed

  • Maintains ‘as-new’ pristine appearance, as it resists staining and discoloration

 

Tree sap, bird lime and atmospheric pollution spoil the look of unprotected glass and easily stains the surface. Cleaning the build-up of dirt is very difficult, if not impossible. Unclean glass spoils the general appearance.

 

ClearShield Eco-Glass™ ensures that glass in windows, sunrooms and skylights remains as clean and bright as the day it was installed, giving optimal clarity with the least possible effort.
 

RESIDENTIAL CASE STUDIES

Case Caribe

Casa Caribe

Cancun, Mexico

This stunning property has a front view of the beach; all the glass can be moved so the living room integrates with the beach and the Caribbean Sea. 

​

However, after several years of exposure to Cancun’s weather, it started to become harder to clean and more importantly the time it stayed clean began to shorten. This increased the frequency and costs of cleaning. It got to the stage where it had to be cleaned every day – even on occasion, several times a day – in order to have the crystal clear view the owner demanded.


The cleaning of the ClearShield® ‘non-stick’ Glass now only takes place twice a week with very little effort involved, saving time. money and effort. The owner of the house can now appreciate a perfect view and the beautiful appearance of the glass is preserved.

Olympus Tower Doc 33pc.jpg

Olympus Building

The Hague, Netherlands

Completed in 2002, this luxury apartment building is 164 feet high and consists of 16 floors. However, there are a few problems that negatively impact the glass. First, its city center location means traffic pollution is a major problem. Secondly, the coast of Scheveningen is just a mile away, so the constant sea wind blows salt and sand on to the glass surface, resulting in dirt and limescale build-up. On top of that, concrete dust and building run-off contaminated the glass.

For two years, the glass had been unprotected, resulting in contamination that could not be removed using conventional cleaning techniques.
 

The building's residents and the contractor decided the solution was for the glass to be renovated and treated with the Ritec ClearShield System®. Once the glass was restored to its original appearance, Ritec ClearShield® was applied to the glass to provide protection from contaminants, such as weathering and atmospheric pollution. This resulted in easier cleaning in the future and a longer-lasting pristine appearance between cleaning cycles.

Val's House

South London, UK

Val is an interior designer and the man behind the popular no5_thehouse Instagram account that attracts over 32,000 followers. When he felt his rooflights could benefit from some kind of easy-clean treatment, it was no surprise that Ritec ClearShield® was chosen.

​

Ritec’s On-Site Team subsequently treated Val’s rooflights with the ClearShield Eco-System®, and the praise followed soon afterwards: “This is such an incredible product! It’s been raining so much and the rooflights still look clean. I really wish I had known about this product back when I installed the glass. Your team have done a brilliant job and it was such a quick process. I’ll be suggesting Ritec ClearShield to clients in the future. Thank you!”
