We recommend Pilkington Glass
Pilkington Activ™ is the world’s first self-cleaning glass. It’s basically the same as conventional glass, except for a unique dual action coating. It works in two ways: first it uses daylight to break down organic dirt (such as tree sap) and then uses rain to wash the dirt away.
Pilkington Activ™ also dries faster, leaving the glass clean and with less streaks. Making it the perfect solution for conservatory roofs and windows.The durable coating never needs reapplying, and will last as long as the glass does.
